Pankaj,

Use the following Function modules to schedule a job programtically.

job_open

job_submit

job_close

refer this and set ur parameters accordingly...

JOB_OPEN->For opening a job in the background

JOB_SUBMIT->For submitting the job

JOB_CLOSE->For closing the job.

Take a look at the example code for these functions.

http://www.sap-basis-abap.com/sapac018.htm

*Submit report as job(i.e. in background)

data: jobname like tbtcjob-jobname value

' TRANSFER TRANSLATION'.

data: jobcount like tbtcjob-jobcount,

host like msxxlist-host.

data: begin of starttime.

include structure tbtcstrt.

data: end of starttime.

data: starttimeimmediate like btch0000-char1.

• Job open

call function 'JOB_OPEN'

exporting

delanfrep = ' '

jobgroup = ' '

jobname = jobname

sdlstrtdt = sy-datum

sdlstrttm = sy-uzeit

importing

jobcount = jobcount

exceptions

cant_create_job = 01

invalid_job_data = 02

jobname_missing = 03.

if sy-subrc ne 0.

"error processing

endif.

• Insert process into job

SUBMIT zreport and return

with p_param1 = 'value'

with p_param2 = 'value'

user sy-uname

via job jobname

number jobcount.

if sy-subrc > 0.

"error processing

endif.

• Close job

starttime-sdlstrtdt = sy-datum + 1.

starttime-sdlstrttm = '220000'.

call function 'JOB_CLOSE'

exporting

event_id = starttime-eventid

event_param = starttime-eventparm

event_periodic = starttime-periodic

jobcount = jobcount

jobname = jobname

laststrtdt = starttime-laststrtdt

laststrttm = starttime-laststrttm

prddays = 1

prdhours = 0

prdmins = 0

prdmonths = 0

prdweeks = 0

sdlstrtdt = starttime-sdlstrtdt

sdlstrttm = starttime-sdlstrttm

strtimmed = starttimeimmediate

targetsystem = host

exceptions

cant_start_immediate = 01

invalid_startdate = 02

jobname_missing = 03

job_close_failed = 04

job_nosteps = 05

job_notex = 06

lock_failed = 07

others = 99.

if sy-subrc eq 0.

"error processing

endif.
