The new unified Job Monitoring allows you to monitor all the business-critical background jobs such as ABAP jobs and BW process chains, centrally. The ABAP jobs and/or BW process chains that you monitor are referred as monitored objects. You configure these monitored objects in a technical scenario or a business process that carries several background jobs.
Example
You can create a monitoring object in the Technical Monitoring work center, by creating a technical scenario which contains the technical systems to monitor.
You can create a monitoring object from an existing solution, in the Business Process Monitoring work center.
You monitor objects based on:
attributes such as job owner, job name, start time
time intervals
alert conditions
automatic notification or support message generation conditions
The following metrics indicate the status of the monitored object:
Object status – Failed, Active, Cancelled, Released
Scheduling metrics - schedule start time, start delay, end time, duration, out of time window
