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.
