hi venkat,

it does not show the program, it only shows the job name.

A program can be scheduled with different job name.

Moreover ther are many job names and it is difficult to find out the program name by clicking on the job name.

It will probably be faster to also enter the ABAP program name in SM37 (under "Job Step"), so the result list will contain only jobs for the program in question.

hi check this..

if you scheduled directly from the se38---then the job name and the program name is same..

or if you scheduled by the function module it will be different

Go to SM37 and program name under ABAP Program name in Job Step
