Hi,

Go to tcode SM37. Select the job which you want to cancel.Go to Job->Cancel Active Job.

It will cancel your job which you have scheduled.

Hello,

Repeatedly cancel the Jon in SM37. Look at the menu Job---> Cancel Active JOb

IF it doesn't get cancelled then try with the Tcode SM50

Yes Got the solution.

If the porcesses is running in Background. GO to SM50 --> Menu Choose Process --> Cancel with Core.

This will Cancel the active Job.

There is a last ditch method for jobs that don't get canceled for some reason or the other

Go to SM50 - first try canceling the job from there

If that doesn't work, note down the Process ID (PID) of the job

Take direct OS access to your system (You would need your Basis person for this) and terminate the job

If the server is Windows based, you can end it using the task manager and end that process id

Hi,

I am trying to Stop an Active Scheduled Periodic Job.

It is not getting stopped. Can anyone give me the suggestion how i can stop the job.

I tried even in the SM50.

Hello Sekhar,

In my last post, I mentioned the following..

"Take direct OS access to your system (You would need your Basis person for this) and terminate the job

If the server is Windows based, you can end it using the task manager and end that process id"

Have you tried that?

Fastest way to kill a process:

• Transaction: SM66
• Click on the process you want to kill
• From your keybord: Alt + E -> P -> I -> O

You don't need to have a direct access to OS.

Bye,

Gabriele
