Hi

Before any background processing can actually begin, background jobs must be defined and scheduled. The scheduled time for when a job runs is one part of the job’s definition. There are several ways to schedule jobs:

From Transaction SM36 (Define Background Job)

With the "start program in the background" option of either Transaction SA38 (ABAP: Execute Program) or Transaction SE38 (the ABAP editor)

Through the background processing system’s own programming interface. (Many SAP applications use the internal programming interface to schedule long-running reports for background processing.)

Through an external interface.
