Go to SM36, give a name, job class and click on 'Step'. In the pop-up screen, enter click on ABAP program. Give your program name and the variant with which you want to run it. Save it and come back to the initial screen. Now click on 'Start Condition'. Click on 'Date/Time. Give a schedule start date and time. I am not sure if you can say start any time between these two times. You can only tell the system as to when it can start.

Check the box at the bottom 'Periodic Job' and then click on 'period values'. There specify 'Weekly'. Save all and you are ready to go.

Hi Tina,

You can define you background jobs with Transaction code SM36.You can give the condition in the "Start condition".

Go to transaction SM36, click the button for "Job Wizard" it will walk you thru it.

In the start conditions, mark as periodic job, and choose weekly. Set the date and time of this friday. That's it.

Hi Srni,

May be the 'No Start After' option of the Start Time can be used to meet the 'start any time between these two times' condition.

No, that option will stop running the schedule after that data time is past. So if I enter a date time of 02/23/2006 11:45:00, it will not run any other day after that date and time even though you specify it to repeat every week.
