Hi,

It should be the problem with the format of sy -datum. assign the value to the variable then pass it to the FM.

ex: STARTDATE = '19970101'.

this will work!

Hi,

I found this thread and it comes quite close to the problem I have. I am using job_open and job_close to schedule a successor job every 5 minutes. Sometimes, I get also the error message INVALID_STARTDATE = 2. Since I am not specifying any startdate, I am a bit lost, why this error occurs. Does anyone have an idea? I read in another thread, that either sdlstrtdt or laststrtdt.

Thanks,

Tim
