JAMS SAP integration

SAP Job Scheduling and Batch Automation

JAMS Scheduler runs SAP background jobs, BW process chains, and BusinessObjects Data Services jobs in the same workflows as your Windows, SQL Server, and Linux jobs. An SAP job can wait on a job anywhere else in your environment, or start one.

Three SAP job types

SAPJobV2, SAPProcessChain, and SAPDataService

Works with

ECC 6.0 with EHP 7 or newer, NetWeaver 7.4 or newer

Separate SAP access

Run SAP jobs without a login to the SAP server

What JAMS Scheduler Runs in SAP

Pick the SAP job type when you create the job. Everything else about it, from schedules to dependencies to alerts, works like any other JAMS job.

SAP background jobs

SAPJobV2

Runs multi-step SAP background jobs. The JAMS log shows the SAP job number, so you can find the same run in the SAP client. Replaces the older SAPJob and SAPStandardJob methods.

BW process chains

SAPProcessChain

Runs SAP BW process chains. The job output carries the chain's log ID, and the JAMS log shows the chain's output.

Runs SAP BW process chains. The job output carries the chain's log ID, and the JAMS log shows the chain's output.

BusinessObjects Data Services

SAPDataService

Runs any job that already exists in your SAP BusinessObjects Data Services environment.

BusinessObjects Data Services

SAPDataService

Runs any job that already exists in your SAP BusinessObjects Data Services environment.

Jobs defined in SAP

SAP sequence tasks

Keeps the job definition in SAP and lets JAMS Scheduler handle when it runs, as a step inside a sequence job.

How JAMS Scheduler Connects to SAP

You define the SAP server, client, and instance number once, as an SAP connection in the JAMS Connection Store. Every SAP job points at that connection, so a server change is one edit.

SAP jobs use the same access control lists as every other JAMS job, tied to your Active Directory users and groups. SAP credentials stay encrypted in JAMS under their own access control. That means an operator can run an SAP job without ever getting a login to the SAP server.

SAP Jobs in a Cross-Platform Workflow

An SAP job takes the same schedules, calendars, dependencies, and alerts as a Windows or Linux job. So a process chain can wait for a SQL Server load to finish, then hand off to a report and a file transfer.

When an SAP job fails, runs long, or misses its window, you get the same notification as any other job. Nobody has to watch SM37 to find out.

SAP FAQ

Can JAMS Scheduler run SAP BW process chains?

Yes. The SAPProcessChain execution method runs BW process chains as JAMS jobs. The job output includes the chain's log ID, and the JAMS log shows the chain's output.

Does someone need SAP access to run an SAP job in JAMS?

No. SAP credentials are stored in JAMS Scheduler, encrypted and protected by their own access control list. You can let someone run the job without giving them access to the SAP server.

Which SAP versions does JAMS Scheduler support?

The SAP execution methods need SAP ECC 6.0 with Enhancement Package 7 or newer, SAP NetWeaver 7.4 or newer, and a Unicode system.
