You can use the following types of task in the task plan:

• Job chains executed in the background (= flow definition)
• Individual jobs executed in the background (= program with variant)
• Programs or transactions executed online.
• Notes as placeholder to describe a task that you do not process in the SAP System (such as "inform Mr. X")

It is only programs with variants that can be scheduled in the daily view and the system executes them automatically.The system cannot start programs and transactions. You can start these manually from the task list. To do so, use the right mouse button to choose Execute.
