Hi Gurpreet

The job has to be executed every day for the specified interval ( 9 to 5 ) and on the said frequency (every 1 hour ).

How to do this.

Is it a standard job or custom one?

If it is standard you have that option of scheduling hourly.

Check this [HELP|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_45b/helpdata/en/c4/3a7fa1505211d189550000e829fbbd/frameset.htm]

which specifies in the start time tab u have periodic job also u can provide ur restirctions there.

i could able to do in sm36 . why not you?

start time ->Date/time Scheduled start Date 08/04/2009 Time 09:00:00

No Start After Date 12/04/2010 Time 17.00.00

Check the check box Periodic job.

then click on Period values select Hourly and click on Save.

Finally save the Start time

Check with your system adminstrator wether "start at operation mode" could help you.

A nasty workaround would be to schedule several jobs with identical steps at a daily interval, one starting at 9 am, one at 10 am, and so on.

Hi Rhea

This idea is not working for my requirement. The job runs periodically and doesn't stops even after the 'NO START AFTER' date.
