Schedul periodic jobs in SM36

Former Member

HI All,

I have a requirement like this;

Two background jobs are to be scheduled, Job A, Job B. Both jobs will run daily.

Job A will run at 8pm, and job B will run after completion of Job A.

Through SM36 I have scheduled job A to run at 8pm, periodic, daily and Job B after job A.

This is not working, as Job A is running daily at 8 but Job B has ran only on the day when I scheduled it.

Job B is not running daily after Job A completes.

Please suggest.

HI,

While scheduling the Job A you can specify the Job B in additional Steps.

Then the after completeing of Job A, JobB get's executed.

Hi,

Create a event for job A and give the event name in the After event of Job B.

This will make the job B to run after the job A .

Hope this helps.

Hi,

You can also mention the Job A name while scheduling Job B in "After Job " area of Start Time Screen for Job B.

The thing that you are trying to do, works sometimes and sometimes doesnot.

You can insert the steps of Job B after the steps of Job A. Hence after the Job A (steps of Job A) finishes, Job B (steps of Job B) will be executed.
