Clear ownership model

Manage what OmniBridgeX owns. Observe the rest.

A precise scope prevents accidental changes to jobs that belong to SAP operations or another scheduling process.

Managed jobs

Created or imported into OmniBridgeX

  • Create and maintain job definition
  • Change the schedule
  • Review steps and variants
  • Run permitted jobs on demand
  • Retire future occurrences
  • Preserve completed execution history
Monitored jobs

Other jobs discovered in SAP

  • View current status and history
  • Review execution duration
  • Inspect job steps and variants
  • See logs where authorized
  • No schedule changes
  • No delete or retirement action

Lifecycle capabilities

Everything needed to operate scheduled work.

Definition

Job catalogue

Search jobs by system, ownership, program, status and schedule with clear managed-versus-monitored classification.

Configuration

Steps and variants

Review ABAP program steps, sequence, user, language and variant parameters before execution.

Scheduling

Recurring plans

Maintain immediate, date/time, periodic and calendar-based schedules for managed jobs.

Execution

Run history

Track SAP job count, status, start, end, duration, server and return information.

Diagnostics

Logs and exceptions

Bring job log details and operational exceptions into a tenant-level support view.

Lifecycle

Retirement

Stop future occurrences while keeping completed executions, decisions and audit evidence available.

Incremental synchronization

Fetch what changed—not the same history again.

OmniBridgeX polling uses stable SAP execution keys and a persisted watermark to make monitoring efficient and duplicate-safe.

01

Persist a high-water mark

Store the last successful change timestamp or SAP execution cursor per system and polling scope.

02

Use a safe overlap window

Re-read a small time overlap to catch delayed updates, then upsert by the stable SAP job identity.

03

Upsert, do not append blindly

Update an execution when status or end information changes instead of creating duplicate history rows.

04

Advance only after success

Move the watermark only after the complete polling batch has been persisted successfully.

Workspace views

Move from portfolio health to execution detail.

Operational dashboard

See scheduled, running, successful, cancelled and failed executions with trends and jobs needing attention.

Managed job lifecycle

Create or import authorized jobs, review SAP configuration, edit the schedule and retire future execution.

TraceabilityPoll batch, source system and last refresh.

Connections and polling

Maintain authorized SAP connections, monitoring intervals, retention and operational policies by tenant.

SAP job questions

A practical boundary between OmniBridgeX and SAP.

The SAP scheduler executes the job. OmniBridgeX defines or updates the approved schedule and then monitors the resulting SAP executions.
For managed jobs, editing is focused on the schedule. Retirement stops future occurrences while preserving completed execution history.
No. Jobs not created or imported as managed jobs remain monitor-only, protecting existing SAP operational ownership.

Operate SAP background jobs with one clear control model.

Give business and IT teams visibility without weakening SAP ownership.
