Environment
OS Version: N/A
Cause
Cause type: By design Root Cause: New Feature implemented in AE 11.2 to allow execution of SAP Jobs with different credentials.
Resolution
Update to an enhanced version listed below or a newer version if available where a new feature for the SAP Agent was implemented.
New Function in SAP Jobs allows Execution with different Credentials:
The SAP Job object now provides the possibility to run an SAP job with Login credentials defined by a Login object in the Attribute tab of the SAP job. A new checkbox is available and if you activate it, the login information of the Login object will be used instead of the agent's to run the SAP job.
