Hi,

There are two ways for you to handle,

one manually setting up the job through SM36 which is better and convinient,

secondly through program using FM's JOB_OPEN, SUBMIT, JOB_CLOSE.

Find below steps in doing both:

Procedure 1:

1. Goto Trans -> SM36

2. Define a job with the program and variant if any

3. Click on start condition in application tool bar

4. In the pop-up window, click on Date/Time

5. Below you can see a check box "Periodic Job"

6. Next click on Period Values

7. Save the job

Procedure 2 via Program:

Below is a sample code for the same. Note the ZTEMP2 is the program i am scheduling with 15mins frequency.

DATA: P_JOBCNT LIKE TBTCJOB-JOBCOUNT,

L_RELEASE(1) TYPE c.

CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_OPEN'

EXPORTING

JOBNAME = 'ZTEMP2'

IMPORTING

JOBCOUNT = P_JOBCNT

EXCEPTIONS

CANT_CREATE_JOB = 1

INVALID_JOB_DATA = 2

JOBNAME_MISSING = 3

OTHERS = 4.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

SUBMIT ZTEMP2 VIA JOB 'ZTEMP2' NUMBER P_JOBCNT

TO SAP-SPOOL WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO

WITH DESTINATION = 'HPMISPRT'

WITH IMMEDIATELY = SPACE

WITH KEEP_IN_SPOOL = 'X' AND RETURN.

CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_CLOSE'

EXPORTING

JOBCOUNT = P_JOBCNT

JOBNAME = 'ZTEMP2'

STRTIMMED = 'X'

PRDMINS = 15

IMPORTING

JOB_WAS_RELEASED = L_RELEASE

EXCEPTIONS

CANT_START_IMMEDIATE = 1

INVALID_STARTDATE = 2

JOBNAME_MISSING = 3

JOB_CLOSE_FAILED = 4

JOB_NOSTEPS = 5

JOB_NOTEX = 6

LOCK_FAILED = 7

INVALID_TARGET = 8

OTHERS = 9.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

Hope the above helps you.

Thanks
