if your background jobs do not start running while you have still enough background workprocesses (do i read your question right?) check the following:

start one of the jobs or any report you know and proceed it in background mode. open a new mode and check in sm66 or sm50/51 whether your programm is running. if yes, you had a temporary problem which is no longer there. if no, do further analysis. check in sm21 if there's errors recorded. check the dev_w* files in AL11, depending on what you found out up to that point, a quick peek in other dev_files cannot hurt. anything significant? search SAPNet for clues ...

Hello Ragava,

If all your background work processes are in wait state means there is no background job active in the system.

To check the status of the background job you need to go to transaction sm37 and give your background job name and there are options like "scheduled","released","active","finished","cancelled".

Your job might be in one of these states apart from "active" due to whcih you see all the batckground work processes are in waiting status.

Hope this clears your question.

Thanks and Regards,
