To schedule many batch jobs in one scheduled job

Hi,

 

I have few batch jobs and they can act on same record.

Currently I am scheduling through through different scheduled jobs. They are working fine.

As there cannot be more than 5 scheduled jobs running at at point. I wanted to combine mutiple batch jobs in to one scheduled job.

Please let me know if any one can help me out on this.

 

Thanks

JBabu.

Hi,

I had the same problem and I approached it using a single scheduled class that calls my batch jobs:

 

global class Run_Scheduled_Jobs implements Schedulable{
global void execute(SchedulableContext sc)
{
try{
Process1.invoke();
}
catch(Exception e)
{
 }
try{
Process2.invoke();
}
catch(Exception e)
{
 }
}

My company has a project where they created a scheduled class to fire 4 times a day.  We also have a 'gatekeeper' object.  The first time the scheduled job fires, it fires the first batch.  Second time the second and so on.  Each batch sets an associated value on our gatekeeper.
