[Former Member]

Hi experts.

               The background jobs "RCF_PERIODICAL_SERVICES" in scheduled properly and i can see the job status like "scheduled released and finished" in sm37. but when i go and check the T-code SLG1 am getting error for this particular scheduled job.

error details:-

The error occurred in program RCF_PERIODICAL_SERVICES line 76

Diagnosis

The system detects a technical inconsistency.

System Response

The operation will be terminated.

Termination takes place in:

• Main program: RCF_PERIODICAL_SERVICES
• Subroutine: RCF_PERIODICAL_SERVICES
• Line in source code: 76

Procedure for System Administration

Check the context in which the error occurs.

Since it is probably a program error and not an input error, you should contact SAP.

Thanks in advance

Hi Nicole

I am scheduling only RCF_PERIODICAL_SERVICES as a background job in SM36 t-code.

after scheduling the above job RCF_PERIODICAL_SERVICES and  when i see the status in SM37 t-code, i am able see above job is scheduled and released status but here i am able to see COM_SE_DISPATCHER job is released and finished status but not in scheduled status. and i am not able to see spool list also for both the jobs.

thanks in advance

Hello Sanjay,

That is fine because RCF_PERIODICAL_SERVICES automatically calls COM_SE_DISPATCHER and hence, you will see both in the SM37 log. That's the reason why it is forbidden to schedule the letter too because then it would run twice at the same time and would lead to inconsistencies.

There could be several reasons why the spool icon isn't displayed, see note 422136 for that.

Hello Sanjay,

Which error? Any other entry in SLG1 and/or ST22? I guess it is already created by one of the periocial job services called.

Hello Sanjay,

Usually, you should have spool entries available for that in transaction SM37 where you can see your scheduled reports, what job finished and what cancelled due to errors.
