Status for list of jobs using XBP (BAPI_XBP_JOBLIST_STATUS_GET) not working

[Former Member]

Hello All,

I'm trying to get the status of all the jobs in my SAP system using the XBP interface and JCO using the BAPI method BAPI_XBP_JOBLIST_STATUS_GET.

The output of that BAPI method shows no jobs though. I checked the job overview in CCMS using transaction SM 37 and I am able to see a bunch of finished and released jobs there. I don't know why I'm not able to get this information using XBP interface though.

One other thing is that, if I use an alternate BAPI method BAPI_XBP_JOB_STATUS_GET and supply the the jobname and jobcount(ID) for a particular JOB, XBP returns the proper status for this job. I want to check the status of ALL jobs though and it would be impractical to provide the name and id for a list of jobs and execute BAPI_XBP_JOB_STATUS_GET for each job. This is mainly to determine jobs that were terminated.

I am using JCO version 2.1.8 and XBP interface version 2.0 is supported.

Please help. Thanks

Has anyone gotten an answer for this? We are in the same situation and needing to understand how to retrieve job status and utilize this confirmation for our job ticketing system.
