Schedule a daily job using JOB_CLOSE

[Former Member]

Hello,

I want to schedule a daily job using job_open, job_submit & job_close.

This job should run everyday at 22:00 hrs.

What are the parameters I need to set for the FM JOB_CLOSE?

Thanks,

A Pothuneedi

Look at this sample provided by SAP : <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_sm32/helpdata/en/fa/096d8e543b11d1898e0000e8322d00/content.htm">Sample Program: Start-Time Window with JOB_CLOSE</a>

Sample Program: Start-Time Window with JOB_CLOSE Locate the document in its SAP

<b>Library structure</b>

*
* Submit job: start-time window defined, with periodic repeat and
* with target system upon which the job is to run.
*
* In this case, you must provide start date settings. You can
* have the job started immediately with a JOB_CLOSE parameter,
* set the start date yourself, or ask the user with
* BP_START_DATE_EDITOR.
*
* Example: Provide start-date specifications yourself.
*
STARTDATE = '19970101'.
STARTTIME = '160000'.
LASTSTARTDATE = '19970101'.
LASTSTARTTIME = '180000'.
