By default, all CUSTOM_BOBJ objects are in the Partition SAPBOBJ.

Running CUSTOM_BOBJ jobs

Importing BOBJ Webi report

To import a BOBJ Webi report as Job Definition, run the Custom_BOBJ_ImportReports Job Definition. The imported report is a copy of Custom_BOBJ_RunReport.

The BOBJ System URL must be <host>:<port>/biprws

The document mask should be the real full path in BOBJ, case sensitive. Wildcards are allowed, but if you use them, do not set Generated definition name. The report name will be the generated Job Definition name.

7 Job Definitions have been created with Document mask = ZZ_*.

The output also shows which reports have been imported and which report parameters have been created.

Scheduling a CUSTOM_BOBJ Report Job

After importing the report, run the generated Job Definition. For example:

You can set the CSV format in the CSV Charset field.
