Execute PL/SQL in background using DBMS_SCHEDULER

neilmcFeb 7 2014 — edited Feb 7 2014

I want to execute a PL/SQL procedure in the background using DBMS_SCHEDULER but I can't see how to create a job/schedule so that it only runs manually when I call it rather than by a schedule frequency.

It's an 11g database btw and we don't have the APEX API installed so I can't use APEX_PLSQL_JOB.

Any ideas?
