Immediate
This job will start as soon as possible, subject to job priority and the availability of background work processes. Users granted the appropriate authorizations for background processing can have their jobs released automatically as soon as they are scheduled, without special attention from a system administrator.
Date/time
The job will start at the date and time specified, subject to job priority and the availability of background work processes. You can further define a time frame in which the job will run by specifying a time later than which a job will not run. One use of this feature is to prevent periodic jobs from running when they should not. For example, a routine clean-up job scheduled to run only at night is delayed. By defining a start-time window, you will keep this job from being started during the day, when dialog users are active and fewer system resources are available.
After Job
The job will start on the completion of the specified job. You can specify whether the preceding job must complete successfully or not. Jobs scheduled to start when a preceding job completes cannot be specified as "Periodic jobs".
After Event
The job is triggered by the specified event, descriptions of which follow. This start condition lets you define a sequence of individual jobs to model complex activities in your system. For example, a data transfer program that generates a batch-input session can, once the session has been completely generated, use an event to trigger another job that processes the session.
At operation mode
The job will start when the specified operation mode becomes active in the SAP System.
Workday/Time (>>)
The job will start on the specified day of the month (for example, the third to last day of the month)
By specifying the appropriate SAP factory calendar, your scheduling can accommodate the occurrence of holidays or other non-workdays. You can further specify how the job should be handled if the start day lands on a non-working day. For example, you can have the job started on the workday before or after the actual scheduled date, or allow the job run in anyway, or have the job be skipped on that day entirely. Verify that the calendar you choose has been correctly defined. If, for example, the calendar ends with the current year and your job is to be started next year, the job will terminate abnormally. If a calendar problem occurs, you can review system's error messages in the job log of the terminated job.
