Process chain to trigger with different interval during night

[Former Member]

HI All,

We have some process chains in the system which runs every half an hour throughout the day.

As during night time system is heavily loaded with other loads I am thinking of changing the nightly frequency to every two hours rather then every half and hour.

I couldn't find a feasible option via scheduling options available via start variant or through events.

Does any one there who has faced same issue and found the solution ,I tried to search forum but failed to find the correct answer.

My current BW version is 7.0, thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Chetan,

Just after start you can insert "Decision Between Multiple Alternatives"

In If-else statement you can use "sy-time" and complete your requirement .

Hi Chetan,

You can schedule process chain at different times during the day by using repeat scheduling.

Find the helpful links.

Hope it helps.

HI Somesh,

Thanks for quick response.

I cannot utilize the option of repeat scheduling as I have to create separate schedules for every half an hour during the day and every two hour one for night which is not a good option.

Regarding event based approach ,again i have to create multiple copies of process chains and separate variant for them.

There is an option to embed timings in the abap code(or create an use custom table) while raising an event to run the process chain but I am keeping it as a last resort as it is not a clean approach.

Thanks ,
