Description

The IMMEDIATE_JOB option causes the job to be started immediately.

If the job cannot be started immediately, an error is returned and the job does not wait to start.

The default is to start a job "as soon as possible." In the default case, if the SAP system is unable to start the job, it will keep the job in a waiting state and start it whenever possible.
