Background MRP without MDBT

[Former Member]

Hi all

Is it possible to create a background job for MRP run without using MDBT?

Dear Obie,

As suggested by our forum members,the other way of scheduling MRP job can be done through

T.Code SM36,by defining the step--->ABAP program name --->RMMRP000,but however the system

expects for a variant before scheduling the job,which is generally created through T.code MDBT.

In my understanding the variant can be created through MDBT and the scheduling can be done

through MDBT or else through SM36.

Is that an interview question?

Why do you want create an MRP job without MDBT? SAP created this transaction to make it easy to create and track the background running MRP jobs.

Yes Possible.

Using SM36 you can create a new batch job by using program RMMRP000

if the background job is already is running

then check in Sm37 by giving program name RMMRP000

you can find out the timing andf job created by

Hi Obie,

In SM37, you can create background job for MRP, using the program RMMRP000 along with variant.
