Background Scheduling

[Former Member]

Dear Experts

I need to schedule a job where an executable report needs to run thrice with different variants and frequency should be on daily basis. Pls guide me through this. I am not aware how to add multiple steps in a job. e.g. first step of the job should be the report with 1st variant,second step is the same report with 2nd variant and third step with 3 variant.

Hello,

While defining the background job in SM36, just click on STEP button and specify the second variant and save. Same way you can add multiple steps with different variants

Hi,

Goto SM36.

Give Job name

Goto step, Give report name and first varient.

Save it. then again click on Create button in step list overview screen and give report name and 2nd varient.

repeat procedure for third varient. this will create 3 steps in job.

Then go back on main page. Click on start condition> date and tine>period values---> select daily.
