Hi,

when editing start condition in SM36 (Define Background job), goto "Date / Time" check "Periodic job" and goto "Period values". In the following popup choose "Other period". There you are free to define in which cycle the job should start (48 hours).

Peter

Call SM36, in "start conditions" click on "Period values", click on "Other period" put 2 days

Hi,

1. Go to SM36 give the job name i.e. ZABC_MYJOB

2. Click on Steps (Upper left corner - 2nd Button) and assign the ABAP report name .i.e. RSUSR002, Check and Save.

3. Click on Start Condition (Upper left corner - Ist Button), click Date/Time and specify the Start Date and Time.

4. Select "Periodic Job" and click on Period values now click on Other Period

5. Now input 1 in the Minute Box. , and check and save.

6. Again Check and Save. and Again Check and Save.

7. Now save the job.

This job will run after every 1 minut

(OR) try the below steps.

you can setup your job in order to start after an event.

After that you can get the event triggered from the Operating System:

- log into you Operating System with the SIDadm user id (at the Operating System level) and go to directory /usr/sap/SID/SYS/exe/run

- Run the SAPEVT executable as follows :

sapevt YOUR_EVENT -t pf=/usr/sap/SID/SYS/profile/DEV_DVEBMGS00_server001 nr=01

This will raise the event, and cause the job scheduled within SAP to execute.

In this way you can use the O.S. (u201Ccrontabu201D for example) functionalities in order to schedule your job between 9am to 6pm.
