Which transaction code would you use to check the status of background jobs?

The transaction code SM37 is used to check the status of background jobs in SAP. When you execute this transaction, you gain access to the Job Selection screen, where you can specify parameters such as job names, user names, dates, and job statuses. This allows you to monitor and manage background jobs effectively, including seeing which jobs have completed, which are still running, and any that have failed, along with pertinent details about each job.

This functionality is crucial for maintaining and troubleshooting processes that are running asynchronously, as it provides insights into their current states and any potential issues that may need to be addressed. The ability to review job logs, rerun jobs, or terminate jobs directly from this screen makes SM37 an essential tool for system administrators and developers working with SAP systems.
