Hi Experts,

Can we make a variant run in background by default??

If yes then how??

Hi

first Save the variant for that program and use in Job scheduling

Create a Variant for the Program and

Schedule JOB in background:

Go to SM36 create a Job

enter Program and Variant for that program in STEP..

click on Start Condition

Click on DATE and TIME enter date scheduled Start and END times

click on Period Values

Click on HOURLY/WEEKLY etc

CLick on RESTRICTIONS also to use further criteria.

so your job will be scheduled and run as per your requirement.

and in SM37 Transaction check the status of that JOB

Check this link for scheduling jobs..
