Multiple scheduled jobs

[Former Member]

Hello.

I'm looking for a solution for automatically run of month jobs with archiving. The solution should run about 10 reports and archive them (spool options, archive only, to content manager).

A solution could be a report that uses a setup table to find reports to run (and when) with proper selection criteria (from table).

Then BDC sessions are created and executed. Also some kind of log should be used.

Is this a possible solution? Have anyone created a similar solution?

Please feel free to suggest other solutions

Couldn't understand your requirement, can you give more details.

Hello again.

It wasn't a good explanation, I'll try with a new one

1. There are about 10 reports/programs that should be executed to generate static data (government demanded reports).

2. Each program should be executed per Company Code (many company codes).

3. This should be done each month automatically -> >100 run each month.

4. This is how reports are archived today:

I. A program with proper select options/parameters is executed with "execute in background" and Archive mode = "2 Archive only" (don't know if this is a configuration or if it's standard SAP)

II. Then a new window appears and Content Manager parameters are specified. The report is then executed.

III Report is now (when finished in SM37) in Content Manager and could be retrieved by transaction OADR and parameters specified in II.

5. It's today done manual and this is too time consuming.

The idea is to create a program that creates these jobs and execute them scheduled (not all at once but over several nights). Also historical data must be generated for a few years.

Was this a better explanation? I hope someone have a good idea how to solve this task...

Thanks, I think this should work. By using SPOOL PARAMETERS and ARMOD in SUBMIT.
