Creating periodic activity

Former Member

Hi,

I'm trying to understand whether I can create a macro for particular activity that takes place every month in my SAP system.

eg., I need to fill up a particular form every month on 25 with the same data. Can I automate this step using some ABAP coding?

Since the activity is going to be repetitive do I have the facility to create a macro for the same?

Hi..

In SAP we can achieve this functionality thru Background Jobs:

1. Implement this Logic in a Report program..

Create a Variant for Selection Screen (if Applicable)

2. Create a Background Job with this Periodic Processing option in Tcode SM36.

3. Job status can be monitored in tcode : SM37.

Hi,

Thanks, but I need more info on this. I'm a functional guy with little knowledge on ABAP Programming.

Can I able to create a program which details the data that must be filled in a form for repetitive job? If yes, how do I do that?
