Predefined Time Point for Scheduling Broadcasting

[former_member190390]

Hello Experts

I have created predefined time point for scheduling broadcasting jobs at one time. For this i have created one job to run weekly at 7AM. When I connect to BEx Broadcaster -> Query -> Schedule, I am unble to view the "Predefined Time Point".

Can anyone know why it's not visible in scheduling broadcasting?

I followed the below links

Hi Venky,

The scheduling options which you get also depends on the

authorization. Please refer the following document in detail.

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid

Please note the points which explain S_RS_BCS. They are noteworthy.

Extract from this presentation:

.. New Authorization Object for Information Broadcasting S_RS_BCS.

This object determines the user#s scheduling options

.. Fields:

ObjectType: Three instances: Query, Template & Workbook

ObjectID: QueryID / TemplateID / WorkbookID

EventType: DataChange or TimePoint

EventID:

DataChange - InfoProviderID

TimePoint - Timepoint ID (as specified during timepoint definition)

.. Administrator Authorizations for Broadcasting are maintained via the

existing authorization object S_RS_ADMWB

.. The field RSADMWBOBJ has been enhanced with BR_Setting

"Broadcasting Settings".

.. The existing activities are:

.. 03 (Display)

.. 16 (Execute, for Broadcasting also schedule)

.. 23 (Maintain, including delete)

.. This results in the following authorization checks:

..Which Query / Web template / Workbook ("basis objects") can an

end-user launch in the Broadcaster and maintain settings for?

.. Display Authorization for basis object needed

..Which Broadcasting Settings of a basis object can be displayed,changed

or deleted by an end-user?

.. Users without Admin Authorizations can do this only for their own

Broadcasting Settings

.. Users with Admin Authorizations ( S_RS_ADMWB with 'BR_Setting') can

do this for all their settings (Activity for display/change will be

checked)

..When will an end-user be able to broadcast a setting directly?

(i.e. "Execute" Button

.. Needs authorization to execute the basis object

.. If he wants to pre-calculate with other users authorizations, he

needs the authorization to do batch scheduling for others

.. To run other users settings he needs admin authorization with

activity #execute#

..When can an end-user run broadcasting settings on data change

events or pre-determined time points?

.. Corresponding authorizations in S_RS_BCS for object type and -ID of

the basis object, event type & event ID are needed

Does your user whose saving the timepoints auths look something like this...

BEx Broadcasting Authorization to Schedule S_RS_BCS

Activity *

Event ID in Broadcasting Frame *

Event Type in Broadcasting Fra <== Here you should select*

ID of a BI Reporting Object in *

Type of BI Reporting Object in *

Hi Venky

How are you! Did you solve your problem of scheduilg the reports as per predefined time point?

I think it might be same as my issue that if you restrict by any other calendar or others it wont show up...I have a requirement to restrict the time by only wed day after fisc quarter ends...So I'm in same boat...If you fixed it can you please let me know how you did...

Thanks

If you have created broadcast setting already, then you can create a variant for RSRD_BROADCAST_STARTER and schedule the job for the program itself.
