For quite some time the SAP Solution Manager provides all necessary tools to control the whole governance around background jobs. Two key elements are the standardized and web-enabled Job Request form on the one hand where end users or project team members can request new jobs or can request changes to existing jobs. And on the other hand you have the central Job Documentation which allows central Best Practice documentation of background jobs. Both (Job Request and Job Documentation) are working in an integrated manner so that error prone double maintenance is no longer necessary.
Time and again customers are asking how they can adjust the standard Job Request form (or also the Job Document) so that it better fits the customer needs and terminology. In this sequence of three blogs the following shall be explained:
In order to maintain static value helps (valid for Job Request form and Job Documentation) you have to access transaction SPRO in your SAP Solution Manager. Follow the path
SAP Solution Manager > Scenario-Specific Settings > Job Scheduling Management > Extended Configuration > Adapt Organization Data
When you execute this SPRO activity you have to enter one of the five following tables
Once you entered on entry then you can push "Maintain" and add a new entry or change/delete an existing entry. The first column is always used as a short text or for abbreviations and the second column is then used for the corresponding long text.
Remark: Entries that you made for these static values help have to be translated by yourself! For more information visit http://help.sap.com/ and search for "SE63" which is the translation transaction.
Now if you access the Job Request form and open the respective field where you maintained some static value help (in our case "Organization") you get to see those maintained entries.
In the How to configure SAP's standard Job Request form - Part 2 you will learn how to influence whether selected fields shall be visible, mandatory or pre-filled with certain entries
