BP_JOBVARIANT_SCHEDULE and BP_JOBVARIANT_OVERVIEW: Easy Job Scheduling and Management

These two function modules offer an "easy-method" or "express-method" for scheduling and then managing background processing jobs.

The function modules are as follows:

BP_JOBVARIANT_SCHEDULE: Schedule a job for execution.

This function module greatly simplifies scheduling a job. You need only name an ABAP report. The function module presents screens to your user to allow them to 1) specify the variant to use; and 2) pick a single or repetitive start time for the job.

BP_JOBVARIANT_OVERVIEW: Manage jobs.

This function module offers a simplified management interface to jobs. A user can delete inactive jobs and display job logs and spool output from completed jobs.

For more information, please see the online documentation in the function module facility (transaction SE37) or Scheduling and Managing a Job: Easy Method.
