Functionality You can use this function module to determine the jobs (records with theformat TBTCJOB) that fulfill the selection criteria that you specified. You can use BP_JOB_SELECT to determine jobs that you want to continueprocessing. You can, for example, select jobs that correspond to acertain naming convention, and check their status with the fieldTBTCJOB-STATUS. Notes In addition to the familiar function BP_JOB_SELECT, you can also use thejob step (ABAP or external command, external program) and the periodfor selection. Description Returns the selection criteria used to generate a list of jobs. If JOBSELECT_DIALOG is set to BTC_YES, then the structure reflects anychanges to the selection criteria made by the user. These selection criteria can be used as input for theJOBLIST_REFR_PARAM parameter of the BP_JOBLIST_PROCESSOR functionmodule. Description Specify whether the criteria for selecting a job should be collectedfrom the user or are only passed to the function module in the call. Permissible values are as follows: BTC_YES: A selection screen is presented to the user. Any valuessupplied in the call are filled in on the screen. BTC_NO: Job selection criteria must be supplied in the call to thefunction module. Description Use this structure to pass job selection parameters to the functionmodule. The selection criteria are the same as those available in thebackground maintenance management function (Transaction SM37). You canfind information on the selection criteria in the online help in SM37. If JOBSELECT_DIALOG is set to BTC_YES, then the values in the structureare filled in as default values on the selection screen that ispresented to the user. Otherwise, the values in the structure are used directly to selectjobs. Note: For performance reasons, you should always specify a user in theselection parameters. A generic value such as P* or the value * isacceptable if you wish to select jobs from more than one user. Description This structure contains the TBTCJOB entries of the jobs that wereselected. The jobs are presented to the user in the format used in the joboverview of the background administration function (Transaction SM37).
