Day light saving issue for Job scheduling in XI 7.0

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We are trying to schedule an ABAP job via SM37 in SAP XI 7.0. Our requirement is to schedule the job for Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST) but our system is running on BST (British Summer Time). When there is a daylight saving for BST, the job runs either 1 hr late or 1 hr early in AEST.

Is there a way in which we can create calender for a specific 'time' or any other ideas?

Looking forward for your valuable suggestion.

Thanks,

Sampath

Hi Sampath,

What Paul has suggested is right. I have done this. You can create a system user on AEST and schedule the batch job with this user. It should work.

On the user defaults, maintainable in transaction SU01, there is a value for Personal Time zone of the user. 

I would have thought you should be able to set this for the user account under which the batch job is being set up to be AEST.

But I have never tried it.
