Hi shankar,

1. Call Transaction SM36 or choose CCMS ® Jobs ® Definition.

2. Assign a job name. Decide on a name for the job you are defining and enter it in the Job Name field.

3. Set the job’s priority, or “Job Class”:

· High priority: Class A

· Medium priority: Class B

· Low priority: Class C

4. In the Target server field, indicate whether to use system load balancing.

· For the system to use system load balancing to automatically select the most efficient application server to use at the moment, leave this field empty.

· To use a particular application server to run the job, enter a specific target server.

5. If spool requests generated by this job are to be sent to someone as email, specify the email address. Choose the Spool list recipient button.

6. Define when the job is to start by choosing

Start Condition

and completing the appropriate selections. If the job is to repeat, or be periodic, check the box at the bottom of this screen.
7. Define the

job’s steps

by choosing Step, then specify the ABAP program, external command, or external program to be used for each step.
8. Save the fully defined job to submit it to the background processing system.
9. When you need to modify, reschedule, or otherwise manipulate a job after you've scheduled it the first time, you'll

manage jobs from the Job Overview

.

Start Condition

- when u click start condition button

1. Choose the Start condition button at the top of the Define Background Job screen.

2. Choose the button at the top of the Start Time screen for the type of start condition you want to use (Immediate, Date/Time, After job, After event, or At operation mode) and complete the start time definition in the screen that appears.

3. For the job to repeat, check the Periodic job box at the bottom of the Start Time screen and choose the Period values button below it to define the frequency of repetition (hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, or another specific time-related period). Then choose the Save button in the Period values screen to accept the periodicity and return to the Start Time screen.

4. Once you’ve completed specifying the job start conditions, choose the Save button at the bottom of the Start Time screen to return to the Define Background Job screen.
