Background job schedule

former_member76027 — Thu, 23 Jul 2020 19:18:16 GMT

Hello,

We have had a set of scheduled background jobs suddenly stop running, they are all under one user. Jobs that run under a different user are fine. I am trying to determine why they would have stopped. The user account has not had any changes made to it. SM37 shows only the past jobs that were completed successfully. There are no cancellations or errors, the jobs have just stopped running. How can i see the last user to make changes to the job or job scheduled. How do I tell how often a job has been scheduled to run ( for example every night at ?? time)

thanks in advance

Hi Leslie,

You can go to SM37 and check released job and click on selected job and check start condition.

It will tell you about job schedule.

I would check all boxes, especially 'canceled' jobs. May be you can see the last run and check for problems in the job log. Also, it might be an event triggered job, so mark that too. Choose * as event.

If you plan a job, you can enter a date after which the job shall not run anymore, that's also a probability.

Table TBTCO contains all the information you need, last job change, who changed the job etc.

Hi,

Put * in abap program field and event filed and also select all option with schedule status as well, it will show the background job or got to TBTCO table you can check from there as well
