By switching the system landscape on the basis of FSC Intel and the SLES9 (Linux) operating system an upgrade to a more recent version of the scheduler was required. At about the same time, the previous maintenance contract expired and more costs were expected due to changes in the licensing model. Therefore, K+S ITServices GmbH decided to look for an alternative.<\/p><p>Since the employees in the application development area were to take on a large part of the responsibilities and they were already familiar with SAP, the new job scheduling system preference was obvious: finding a solution that fully integrated in SAP.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7c41678 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"7c41678\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The Decision for BatchMan<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2c363a1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2c363a1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>After the evaluation phase, K+S IT-Services GmbH decided to introduce BatchMan as the new scheduler.

development system. During this phase, the concepts were mainly developed for job scheduling, for calendars, alerts, checkpoints, resources, RFC connections etc. In June 2005, BatchMan was installed on the first live system. This was carried out before the actual switch from AIX to Linux. Concurrent with the transfer of the SAP systems to FlexFrame, BatchMan was installed step by step on all other SAP systems. At the same time, the future BatchMan users were trained. The switch of all SAP systems was completed in July 2006.&nbsp;<\/p><p>The last step was the transfer of all non-SAP jobs on BatchMan into the SAP Solution Manager System. In October 2006, the TWS computers were switched off. Now the job control runs centrally in BatchMan for all SAP and non-SAP systems via the Solution Manager system. During the switch, only two days were needed for on-site support. The rest of the collaboration took place via phone calls and e-mails directly with the technical BatchMan Support.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Success Story K + S Centralized job scheduling and lower maintenance costs after migration from IBM\u2018s TWS to BatchMan Objective: Optimization of process workflows after migration K+S is one of the world\u2019s foremost suppliers of special and standard fertilizers, plant care and salt products.
