I am getting Exception INVALID_DATA in JOB_SUBMIT Function module

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am scheduling background job through programmatically using JOB_OPEN, JOB_SUBMIT and JOB_CLOSE.

But some times getting exception message INVALID_DATA and some times it's working fine.

Failure case I checked in side FM: JOB_SUBMIT and gone through it and checked failed in FM: BP_JOB_MODIFY and again gone inside failing inside the FM: BP_JOB_EDITOR. But I am surprising why it's working some times and why it's failing to scheduled the background job.

First I guess some authorization issue in S_BTCH_JOB and S_BTCH_ADM. But if authorization issue then some times it works and some times fails to schedule background job. What should be the reason.

Thanks

Along with the exception INVALID_JOBDATA, you have probably an error message in the SY-MSG* system fields. You just need to check what it says.. .
