Job Storage Management (SAP Library - Computing Center Management System (BC-CCM))

Job Storage Management

Definition

Once jobs are defined, they are stored in the R/3 database in the following principal tables in the background processing system:

TBTCO: The job header table (job management data)
TBTCP: The job step table (individual processing steps in jobs)
TBTCS: The control table for the time-driven job scheduler
BTCEVTJOB: Jobs scheduled to wait for an event

Job logs are held in the R/3 TemSe (Temporary-Sequential Objects) database. TemSe is always set to hold job logs as files in your host systems.

Use

To display or delete job logs, use either Transaction SM37 (Job Overview) or the graphical background monitor. Old job logs and the corresponding jobs are removed automatically by the ABAP program RSBTCDEL, which should be scheduled to run periodically (see Required Basis Background Jobs).
