Hi,

Use following BAPIs for scheduling a job in background

BAPI_XBP_JOB_OPEN - This BAPI solves the first step in scheduling a job in the R/3 background processing system. You can create the job with this method.

Using additional BAPI calls BAPI_XBP_JOB_ADD_ABAP_STEP and BAPI_XBP_JOB_ADD_EXT_STEP, you can add job steps to the job.

With the BAPI call BAPI_XBP_JOB_CLOSE, you can finish defining the job and transfer it to the background processing system with the status Scheduled without start date.

You have execute the job with the BAPI calls BAPI_XBP_JOB_START_IMMEDIATELY or BAPI_XBP_JOB_START_ASAP.

I hope it would help you.

Regards,

Venkatram

The XBP BAPIs can be used only by first declaring the XBP usage via the "eXternal Management Interface Framework" (BAPI_XMI_LOGON, BAPI_XMI_LOGOFF). Search the forum for more details.
