When I try to create a scheduled job using a script I get the following error message. I am an SA. Not sure why this is happening. It happens when I script some jobs from another server by not others on the same server.

Server: Msg 515, Level 16, State 2, Procedure sp_add_job, Line 105
Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'owner_sid', table 'msdb.dbo.sysjobs'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
The statement has been terminated.

The error message is very informative.

Why can't you insert NULL value in column owner_sid in table msdb.dbo.sysjobs?
Because the column do not accept NULL values...

I have seen this error also when I am moving jobs from one server to another one.
You have to make sure:

1. The original job owner exists in the target server
2. If you have a different user in the target server, replace the following,

@owner_login_name=N'old_owner' to @owner_login_name=N'new_owner'
