Background Job Scheduling For IP30
Background Job Scheduling For IP30
(RISTRA20)
Introduction
As soon as I’m done with my step-by-step reply to a discussion on the subject matter recently, I realized
that this long reply comprising of several Screen-captures possesses the characteristics of a Document. So I
thought of converting it into a Document, so that members will be benefited from this frequently asked
query.
Topic dealt here is for IP30 (program RSITRA20), but this method is valid for other programs too for
background scheduling. AZ
Here we see, how to do:
Step1. Create IP30 Variant.
– Run IP30,
– Give your Plan (here it is ABC123 ) in the Maintenance Plan field (Do not forget this step)
– Click Save Button and in the resulting screen give the Variant name,
– Optional:- Tick Only for Background Processing and Save again.
(Here it is assumed that you want the RISTRA20 program to run at midnights of everyday)
SAVE
All Done
Run SM37 and Execute. (Give Current Date as FROM date and Date after 2 days as TO Date)
Execute to see a screen like this, where your Job is seen scheduled to be run at Midnight of Every Day.
(According to the settings in picture 3 above)
During Scheduling, the Status changes from Released to Active and after Scheduling it turns to Finished.
