Job triggered at Central Instance

[Former Member]

Hi

an abap program will trigger several jobs to run at the central instance.

Question: More than one job will run simultaneously or will run a job at a time?

I need that only one job runs at a time in the central instance.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

If you created separated jobs, not connected to each other then they will run after they will be released and starting criteria will be meet. So it is possible that some or all of them will be executed at the same time.

If you want them to run one after another then maybe it would be better to create one job with many steps?

Hi Marcin

Thanks for your response.

It is not possible one job with steps, because it is a program that will run several times and each time will trigger a job at the central instance. But I need that this job does not run simultaneously.

I think that it will be necessary control it with parameters at job_close function.

Thanks.

Hi Denise,

In that case in your report look for jobs already running or scheduled to run in future. If you find nothing then create job that would start right away. If you find something then in your new job as starting condintion use "after job" - here give name of previous job.
