hi,

in SM37 select a job - > job log there you find out program name, variant name and user name

then we goto program and findout the variant values

You know the <b>name of the report</b> that has been scheduled as background job.

You know the <b>variant name</b> that has been used.

<u><b>Solution</b></u> :

Go to SE38, from variants choose the above variant name and the selection criteria would be populated with the values.

A crude solution, but works.

Hi,

Use transaction SM36 for scheduling job in background,

Enter Job Name , Job Class , Target Server.

I hope this will work out for you.

I find sutiable pelase reward me with sutiable points.

Hi,

- select the job in the SM37

- select the button [step] for this job

- select the interesting report, and choose from the menu [Goto] -> [Variant]

here you can see the used parameters for the report.

Good luck....

Hi,

if you want that information displayed directly in your monitoring screen, you might want to have a look at the new Job Scheduling capabilities of SAP NetWeaver. You can find more information about this on SAP Service Marketplace under quick-link job-scheduling (http://service.sap.com/job-scheduling)

Kind regards,
