Abstract
Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for scheduling and executing user-restricted processes within distributed computing systems. More specifically, certain embodiments of the present invention describe systems and methods by which runtime requests to execute user-restricted processes may be received, processed, and scheduled via a user application of an enterprise system or other distributed computing system. Requests may be received via transaction pages of user applications to schedule and execute user-restricted processes. The user application, a process scheduler, and/or other components within the distributed computing system may determine user contexts associated with the requests, and may determine whether or not the requested processes may be scheduled and executed. Such processes may include, for example, report generation processes, processes to initiate system functions, and/or processes to perform system maintenance within the distributed computing environment.
