Event-Driven Mass Processing 

Use

You can get the system to automatically execute background jobs on saving the planning table.

You can also use a background job to execute mass processing. For example, after you have planned the bottleneck work centers of the capacity planning table you can automatically dispatch operations that have not yet been dispatched to non-bottleneck work centers.

Prerequisites

If you want the system to execute a background job on leaving the planning table you must set the indicator Set event in the control profile. You can also specify a parameter.

Actions

If you leave and save the capacity planning table the system automatically sets the events CY_PLANNING_TABLE_END and SAP_PLANNING_TABLE_END and starts the background job with the appropriate event and the appropriate parameters. You must have previously created the event-controlled background job.

For a mass processing job with the mass processing report RCCYMAB2 you use the variant to specify:

You can read about how to define a variant for the mass processing report in the section Defining and changing variants for the mass processing report.

If the events CY_PLANNING_TABLE_END or SAP_PLANNING_TABLE_END have not been created in your system then you must create them using transaction SM62 as user-defined events.

You can find more information on background processing and variants in the documents
