New book on CRM 2007 Webclient - Customizing & Development

Hi,
yesterday I saw that there is a new book coming up on the CRM WebClient 2007 in march. It seems to be focused on developers. It is available through SAP Press, ISBN 978-3-8362-1287-8.
Has anybody had a chance to get a sneak peak at it? What are the contents? Amazon did not have a lot on it and Sappress just posted a short description and the chapters included.
The authors are Michael Füchsle and Matthias Zierke. Does anyone know about the authors?
Looking forward to any information if I should invest in it.
cheers Carsten

Hi Matthias,
I really did not mean to offend you or any other author/publisher/etc.. Until now I have not had the opportunity to write a book on something, but I am sure it is a whole lot of work.
However, I really am glad that someone wrote a book about WebClient and I am positive that there is a lot of wisdom in it that will answer many of the "beginner" questions. The fact that it has been published in german first is completely understandable as both authors are german. Moreso I would have found it very sad if the completed german version of the book would be held back until the english one is ready.
Back on topic:
I regret to say that I still did not have the opportunity to get a look into the book myself. My colleague has recieved it and it is circulating around our company giving WebClient "beginners" a good start.
Has someone else (sorry Stephen, there are native german speakers in here ) had a look at it? I can not believe that no one in the WebClient Forum has read it by now?!
cheers Carsten

How to add new fields to CRM 2007 Web UI

Hi,
I am new to SAP CRM 2007 and I am interested in how to extend the Web UI, for example adding new fields, to meet the customer requirements. Should I use the EEW or is there another "new and easier" way?
Thanx & best regards,
Oliver

Actually for the new IC webclient UI you have need to take a look at your options:
1. New Installation:
Use the EEWB and add the fields. As part of the EEWB work, you will have a couple of post-processing steps where you will add your generated fields to the new screens. However this doesn't require any programming.
2. Upgrade from CRM 4.0/50
- New fields to add as part of upgrade
See the directions for new installation
- Existing fields to add as part of upgrade
--See the blog on the 40/52 CUSTOMER_H migration for transaction fields
--Business Partner fields part of BUT000 available via UI configuration tool, no extra work needed
--Business Partner fields part of tabular extension, manual work required, I am still "perfecting" this method and plan on writing a blog once I have the technique finished.
--Product Attributes - use the transaction CRMM_UI_PROD_GEN and CRMM_UIU_PROD_CONFIG
I know CRM 2007 is based on the same tech foundation as 2006s, with some differences in how the UI tool works and the fact there are some screen layout changes(editable overviews). The extension procedures are generally the same. I can answer some of you extension questions based on my work with CRM 52 so far. It will generally apply to your situation.
BTW: The PCUI is no longer supported in CRM 2006s and above. Even the old SAP GUI transactions such as BP, COMM_PRODUCT are removed from the standard CRM menu. The SAP CRM web client should be used instead now.
Take care,
Stephen

CRM 2007 - Webclient Logo replacement

Hi Gurus
In the CRM 2007 Webclient view there is a SAP Logo on the top right corner of the view.
I'd like to replace this with a customer branded logo.
I have reviewed and applied from the blog.
/people/sudipta.sarma/blog/2008/03/28/how-do-you-brand-your-company-logo-in-crm-2007-ui
As well I looked at
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm60/helpdata/en/b3/f00c1514c54e67a60b61f7318c14b7/content.htm
I think these maybe referring more to the WEB UI than the Webclient.
Is there a cookbook or Note on this subject, any help will be gratefully received and rewarded.
Regards
Panduranga

In CRM 2007 WebClient UI - How to change the exit URL?

Good Evening All
When we log off from the CRM 2007 WebClient UI application, the exit url is pointing to www.sap.cpm. Where can we change this to point to our corporate URL or point back to the logon URL?
Sometime back I had seen some information regarding this, but am not able to find it. Any information would be highly appreciated.
Thanks

How to open multiple sessions in CRM 2007 WebClient UI

Hi guys,
This simple thing, I am could not figure out. How do I open another session on WebClient UI in CRM 2007.
Can anybody help.
Thanks,
John

Hi Vijayata,
Thank you very much for responding. Yes, now I am able to create another browser where I have to put my user id and password again. However, your answer is very useful.
I have another problem. When I login I see a list of roles and click one of them to go into the home page.
I created my own role. My question is, how do I make my role appear in the existing list of roles.
What I did is, I assigned my role to an Org.Unit. The result is when I login to WebClient UI, it directly takes me to home page of my role.
What I want is, I want my new role to appear among the existing list of roles. I tried many ways, I couldn't figure out. Can you please give idea.
Thanks,
John

CRM 2007 and Custom ISA 4.0 application interoperability

Hi,
We are in the process to upgrade our CRM 4.0 back end system to CRM 2007, in fact we already performed the BASIS upgrade in our sandbox system to estimate the effort required for the upgrade on different areas.
One of this areas is related with the ISA web application, we have a custom ISA 4.0 application that we use to capture business transaction in our CRM system, but this application is running in a separate NetWeaver 7.0 system on the DMZ, we would like to know if it is possible to integration of the old ISA 4.0 with the new CRM 6.0 (CRM 2007) backend system.
The reasoning to try to leave the CRM ISA application on 4.0 is because we are using it just to provide us the framework to create transaction in CRM, in fact we only create one type of transaction in the CRM system from this web application and the effort to upgrade the java application to the new version together with the support package stack could be very high for a application that is not very heavily used.
In summary, the question is if it is architecturally feasible to connect a CRM ISA 4.0 web application with a CRM 6.0 (CRM 2007) backend system?
Thanks for your help with this,
Zareh Vazquez

Hi Zareh
Firstly I can advise that ISA 4.0 Is not compatible with CRM 2007.
One of the biggest issues that you will encounter if you attempt this
is the compatibility of the ISA application with
the Internet Explorer 7 and Mozilla Firefox 2 browsers.
In ISA 4.0 even if you can get it to work with CRM 2007 these browsers are
not supported and no workaround is currently available or planned to address this.
This compatibility has only been address in the later versions of ISA 5.0
As these browsers versions are now becoming more commonly used
I think that this will be important for your consideration.
Please review the following notes which discuss such issues.
244869 Problems with the display in Internet Explorer 7.0
064439 Browser-specific stylesheets for Firefox and IE7
I hope that this will be of assistance.
Warm regards.

Getting error type RABAX_STATE in CRM 2007 Webclient

Hi,
We have installed CRM 2007 and upgraded the patchlevel of BBPCRM to SP2. After the patch upgrade we are getting type RABAX_STATE error after we log in through Webclient. We get no errors while logging through SAP GUI. Before the upgradation we were successfully able to login through Webclient. The details of error screen is as follows:
Error when processing your request
What has happened?
The URL http://coevhpa4.coekc.com:8000/sap/bc/bsp/sap/crm_ui_frame/BSPWDApplication.do was not called due to an error.
Note
The following error text was processed in the system CR7 : Syntax error in program CL_BSP_WD_CONTEXT_NODE_TREE===CP .
The error occurred on the application server coevhpa4_CR7_00 and in the work process 2 .
The termination type was: RABAX_STATE
The ABAP call stack was:

Crm 2007 webclient business partner 's number range

Hi all,
I created a new contact person in cic webclient ,after saved its ID number without our defined number range. But in GUI Client I created the correct contact person' ID number started with 4*********.
Number range:
Sold-To-Pary: 2********
Contact person: 4********
In standard business role 'SALESPRO':
1. Create customer ,sold-to-pary started with 2*********.
2. Create contact person also started with 2********.(Its ID num. should be 4********)
Could anyone help me to find out the solution?
Thanks a lot!

Hi,
in Standard, contacts and accounts are created with the standard internal grouping.
To select another grouping, you can add the grouping as an input field in the configuration for manual entry, e.g. in UI component BP_HEAD.
To automatically default the grouping, you can implement Badi BADI_CRM_BP_UIU_DEFAULTS.
In this Badi, you can read the entered data of the partner that you are about to create.
Then, you can default the grouping depending on this data.
E.g. put grouping for persons, if you are creating a partner with partner type = Person.

Thimo

CRM 2007 WebClient Survey not displayed

Hi Experts,
In CRM 2007 I would like to view a survey created by mi in CRM_SURVEY_SUITE. This is not working. But SAP example surveys are displayed well.
What could have happend?
Best regards,
Cristina

when surveys are transported to the other client it takes some time (around 10 minutes) till they are accessible. maybe that is one of the reasons. also check if you have done all the necessary customazing:
- defined determination criteria
- defined determination rule
and in case of opportunities you have to assign survey also directly on the transaction type.

How to get PROCESS MODE in CRM 2007 WebClient

Hi all,
Currently, we're implementing CRM2007 WebClient -- Service Transaction.
In the past(CRM4.0 Version), we used the function 'CRM_INTLAY_GET_PROCESS_MODE' in the BADI of SAVE Service Order to identify it's a new create order or changed order.
CALL FUNCTION 'CRM_INTLAY_GET_PROCESS_MODE'
    IMPORTING
      ev_process_mode = l_dialog_mode. " A created, B changed
Now, this function does not work in Web Client. So, I turned to another function 'CRM_ORDERADM_H_READ_OW' try to get the flag of process mode.
CALL FUNCTION 'CRM_ORDERADM_H_READ_OW'
EXPORTING
    iv_orderadm_h_guid               = lv_guid_ref
IMPORTING
   ES_ORDERADM_H_WRK                = l_CRMT_ORDERADM_H_WRK
   EV_MODE                          = l_dialog_mode
Yes, function 'CRM_ORDERADM_H_READ_OW' works in WebClient. But when creating new service order, the l_dialog_mode = 'B' which is same to changing an exsiting order.
So would anyone kindly help me, How to get the process mode properly in WebClient, especially in Service Order. I need to identify the order is new created or is changed.
Your comments is really appreciated.
Best Regards,
Tony

Use function module CRM_ORDERADM_H_ON_DATABASE_OW to check, if the order has already been save on the database. If not, you are in create mode.

Insert into duplicate entries--exception in crm 2007 webclient

Hi All,
I am facing small problem..
1. I have property field in service ticket component ICCMP_BTSHEAD.
2.I put some validations based on property .
3.when user clicks on create service ticket it will create service ticket with PROPERTY field filled up with some value.
if user clear that value and clicks enter
again if user enters the some value in field and click on save it leads to exceptions that is of type insert duplicates array..like that..
when i checked in debug....for the above procedure the service ticket guid is there in some internal table twice..
if i did nt dne the steps like above,..i.e with out making property field blank..then no duplicates..
can any body through some light on this?

Actully for the same guid there are several entries of the PROPERTY Field , i think you are trying to fill the property field through manually. Actually u are clearing the values from the UI layer ( input field ) but not the underlying BOL contexts, so whenever u are clearing and adding the new value it is trying to add the newly added value along with the odl values also. So make sure that whenever u are clearing the field, the corresponding field should be cleared in the BOL level.
