Hi chidambar,

One way is as indicated by Vishnu..

You can also schedule job directly from SM36.

Go to SM36.

Click on Job Wizard,

Click Continue.

Enter Jobname --> Continue.

click on ABAP PROGRAM NAME --> continue

Specify Program name and variant (if exists).

If you want to add additional step (which can be another program / same program with different variant), you can specify that OR else click continue and say execute immediately. (Or schedule it for later execution)

Hi Chindambar,

The following steps might help u out.

First Step

Initiate the job scheduling function. Standard job scheduling must be used in case of scheduling of an external command or external program as a background job and ABAP job­ scheduling function can be used to schedule ABAP programs. For starting a standard job scheduling function choose the following:

Administration menu bar option à CCMS option à Jobs option à Definition option.

For starting ABAP job scheduling function, navigate to ABAP Editor and choose Program menu bar option àExecute option à Background option.

Second Step

Now define a job. Using the Job Wizard you can define your job. From the Application toolbar, choose the wizard button. After this, the initial screen of the SAP Job Wizard appears. The Job Wizard is available only from the standard job scheduling function.

Third Step

Now, you have to save the job. When it displays the message "Job saved" it means the job has been successfully scheduled. We know that a job must be released before it is scheduled. Only authorized users can release the job, otherwise your system administrator will release your job.

Fourth Step

This is the last step of scheduling. In this step you have to check the status of your job. For this you need to choose System menu bar option à Own jobs option.

In SAP System, the background processing runs according to your instructions. In case a list is generated by the report, the report either prints directly or waits for you in the SAP output controller. The status of background processing can be checked for its correctness.

Thankyou,
