How to schedule a DM package with restrictions (e. g. not on sundays)?

[former_member297106]

Hello all,

I have scheduled a data manager package via the excel interface to run every 15 minutes. Now I would like to add a restriction, e. g. run only on work days or to skip the hours from 2 - 6 am.

Any hints on how I am able to achieve this? Thanks a lot in advance!

Best regards, Titus.

Hi,

You might be able to manipulate the scheduling directly from BW side using SM37.  However, I have not tested this myself so I am not sure how much flexibility you can get. 

You can try by opening the calendar and marking the days.  However, you probably will not be able to change the times. 

Best Regards,

Leila

Hello Leila, I have added a restriction on the SAP Job via SM37, not to run on sundays and holidays. We will see how that works next week. Thanks a lot!

Hi Titus,

Do you think it's a good idea to run some package every 15 minutes? What is the purpose of this package?

Hello Vadim, I don't think its a good idea. We use BPC for planning scenarios that we need updated in the ERP System, basically online. I would have preferred a different design, for instance triggered by event. However, our consultants did not have an alternative to the current design.

Thanks for your response.

You may have conflicts with other packages and with user input...
