This article describes how to schedule BEx Broadcast using Pre-defined Time Point Scheduling.
Pre-requisite:

broadcast the BW reports successfully.
- Make sure you have appropriate authorization of the following objects:
1. S_RS_ADMWB
2. S_RS_BCS

You can define various times for scheduling broadcast settings by defining background jobs as follow:
1. 1. Call Transaction SM36.
1. 2. Specify the job name.
Use following naming convention when entering the job name:
TP_BROADCASTING_<ID you select for time>
For example: TP_BROADCASTING_CTS
1. 3. Choose start condition. The start time dialog box appears.
Here you schedule the job & specify the frequency, interval for job execution etc.
once done with job scheduling.
1. 4. Choose SAVE. The define job screen appears.
5. Choose Step.
Create Step1 dialog box appears.
Here choose ABAP program & specify ABAP program name:
RSRD_BROADCAST_FOR_TIMEPOINT, which is to be executed as part of this step.
SAVE the entries.
Now we will use this job while scheduling the Information broadcast.
From BEx query designer we can go to the Information broadcast scheduling options as below:
You will be directed to the information Broadcast settings screen.
After maintaining all other details, click on Schedule button.
Here we can see the job scheduled under Predefined Time.
Note: If we move the cursor over the job we can see our job ID which we have maintained at the start in SM36 which is in our case ‘CTS’.
(Here job name is TP_BROADCASTING_CTS).
