Info
  • Development of the SAPS4HANAJob template is completed and currently is on ice: the job template does not ship with current JS7 releases.
  • Our intention is to make the job template available for users who operate JS7 with its Open Source License, see JS7 - License.
  • To this purpose ongoing testing and adjustments to new releases of the SAP REST API is required.
  • Interested parties who are ready to provide access to testing environments are invited to get in contact.

...

  • Starting the JITL Job causes the SAP Job to start.
    • Job parameters as available from the SAP Job configuration are forwarded when starting the SAP Job.
      • JS7 supports the following parameter data types: String, Number, Boolean.
      • The same applies to return values from SAP Jobs. Any return values of SAP Jobs are available to subsequent JS7 jobs in a workflow.
  • Checking the JITL Job status and job logs returns the SAP Job status and log output with the JS7 JOC Cockpit GUI.
    • Note that the SAP REST API only offers job logs after execution.
    • Running logs, which typically available with JS7 jobs are not available from the SAP Job.
  • Stopping the JS7 JITL Job results in the relevant SAP REST API call to:
    • complete a running SAP Job and then to fail the JS7 Order:
      • Execution of JS7 - Orders can be cancelled by using the CANCEL operation from the JS7 GUI. This allows the currently executed SAP Job to complete and removes the JS7 order from the workflow - provided that the SAP transaction implements the respective operation to cancel execution.
      • Execution of JS7 orders can be suspended by using the SUSPEND operation from the JS7 GUI. This allows the currently executed SAP Job to complete and puts the JS7 order to a SUSPENDED state.
    • kill running SAP Jobs:
      • Execution of JS7 orders can be cancelled with a KILL option to abort the currently running SAP Job and to remove the JS7 order from the workflow, provided that the SAP transaction implements a cancel/kill option.
      • Execution of JS7 orders can be suspended with a KILL option to abort the currently running SAP Job and to put the JS7 order to a SUSPENDED state, provided that the SAP transaction implements a suspend/kill option.
  • Error handling includes the JS7 JITL Job checking execution results reported by the SAP REST API. If the execution is successful then the JS7 order will be continued. Otherwise the order has failed.
