Autosys Workload Automation

Issue/Introduction

SAP jobs get stuck in a running state. The jobs complete in SAP but stay running in Autosys. Agent needs to be restarted to correct the issue and sometime it works and sometimes it does not work.

Environment

Release : 12.0

Component : CA Workload Automation Agent for SAP

Cause

No RFC authorization for function module BAPI_XBP_JOB_STATUS_GET was granted to SAP user.

In sap_communicator.log, it's noticed that calling an SAP API to check status fails with "No RFC authorization for function module BAPI_XBP_JOB_STATUS_GET" as shown below:
