Goal

This document provides the steps to create scheduler jobs in a multitenant database. It covers only DBMS_SCHEDULER jobs. The jobs created using DBMS_JOB jobs have not been covered here since DBMS_JOB has been retained in later versions of Oracle mainly for backward compatibility. It is highly recommended to migrate from  DBMS_JOB to DBMS_SCHEDULER jobs. To convert from DBMS_SCHEDULER to DBMS_JOB, the document IF: An Example to Convert from DBMS_JOB Jobs to DBMS_SCHEDULER Jobs (Doc ID 2117140.1) may be used.
