Frequently Asked Questions

Does SAP PI have job scheduler capabilities?

SAP PI, uses the SAP NetWeaver Java Scheduler for low-level job scheduling. Unfortunately, Java Scheduler cannot handle a high capacity of daily job runs. In fact, SAP recommends running far fewer than 100,000 jobs each day. Java Scheduler has an external public API, Java eXternal Batch Processing (XBP), in which external schedulers control and monitor AS JAava jobs.
