Go to SM37

Put cursor on your Job (in list)

Select Job > Change

In this screen change the mode from C to A.

Are you looking to this via a program or manually. Manually you can update your scheduled jobs via SM37. Assuming that you are looking at doing this via a program (Since this is an ABAP forum), check out the fuctions that are part of the function group "BTCH", these are the APIs that are used to control the job scheduler. These are also the APIs that are used by external batch scheduling software (example, control-M) to interface to SAP and control the job scheduler. I'm sure that one of these functions will give you what you need.
