Execute the program/transaction and from the selection-screen select the option Program -> Execute in Background. Enter a output device name and continue. In the pop-up click on Immediate if the job is to be scheduled immediately or click on Date/Time and enter a date and time when the job is to be scheduled.

Select the check box for Periodic Job which appears in the pop-up where you enter the Date and Time. The job can be viewed thru SM37.
