Organization announcements Using CRM and SAP portal

Dear Gurus,
I am trying to build functionality for an organization to do their announcements using CRM 7.0, Once the announcement is published it should be visible on the SAP Portal. I am planning to do like this:
1) Create a campaign using mail form (Announcement content) and target group
2) Select the communication method as e-mail and I have done settings in SPRO to create the activity for an outgoing mail
3) Release the campaign and execute the campaign
4) Upon execution the CRM system will create the activity for an outgoing email (announcement)
4) Create an iView in portal
5) Pull the activities created on CRM and display on the portal iView
My questions are:
1) Is there any standard iView to do this
2) Is there any other standard functionality available to do this announcement using CRM and Portal
3) What are the lining table between Campaign activity and mail forms (e-mail content for announcement) - When I go activity search on CRM WEB UI I can see these activities and also I can see these activities on CRMD_orderadm_h, but unable to get the link tables between this activity and outgoing mail forms.
Thank you in advance and appreciate your help.
Regards,
Reddy

Loading transaction data to CRM and SAP/R3 from legacy system

Where can I find information about expected timing to load orders from a legacy system to CRM and SAP R/3? Does anyone know how long it would take to do the update in CRM using RFC's and BAPI's and then load to SAP/R3 if the order had an average of 3.2 line items per order and there were 50.7 million orders? It is assumed we would run multiple loads concurrently. So I guess a better question is how long does it normally take to load one order with 3.2 line items onto CRM and also SAP R/3?
Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi Qutubuddin,

Standard-interfaces between crm and sap for insurance

Hello,
are there existing documentations to connect crm and sap for insurance components (policy management, claims managment, fs-cd)?

20,000 is on quite higher side for IDOC.
IBIP help doc says it needs 2 Kbyte for each record, i.e. 40 Mb for 20,000 rec. that should be ok. Since it has structures for Partner & classification data , I don't think u need to modify the BAPI.

Transaction IE02 - Change equipment

Forefront Unified Access Gateway (UAG) and SAP portal

Hi Guys
Do you have experience or knowledge about the integration of UAG as a reverse proxy for SAP Netweaver portal 7.0?
We are trying a setup where the SAP NW portal uses SPNEGO/kerberos authentication (and it is working), but when accessing the SAP NW portal through UAG we get a "HTTP basic authentication" prompt, while SPNEGO login module fails. UAG can be configured to use kerberos contrained delegation, but it does not work for us.
Anyone who have setup UAG - SAP NW portal integration ? Did you succed with any SSO: Which authentication mechanism' did you configure in UAG and i J2EE?
Best regards
Tom Bo

Hi Tom,
I work as a consultant for various customers who seek my companies expertise in Microsoft Forefront security. I published SAP Portal 7.0 for my customers and was able to provide seamless single sign with UAG.
We configured NTLM authentication in UAG. We then configured SPNEGO and enabled fall back to Basic Authentication on SAP. This should work but you may need to write some authentication modification scripts if you are getting username/password errors.
In addition, we did strong 2-factor authentication with RSA for one customer. Some of our customers also ask about enabling endpoint detection to do things like, If you dont have an updated antivirus, then you the user cannot download any documents from SAP.
Thanks!

Acess CRM via SAP Portals

Hi,
Can somebody tell me if i will need of a CRM licence to acess through an iview of sap portals to the data of my Business Partners?
Thanks in advance,
Hugo.

Hi Hugo,
On the portal you will create users, these users will be mapped to CRM users. You can map multiple portal users to different CRM users or to a generic user. So initially you need to have licence for CRM user when you define CRM system on portal and when mapping the users.
But you can create any number of users on portal and map all these portal users to a generic CRM user. For this you dont need any additional licence.
Hope it helps.

Karthik.

Secure Communication between SAP R/3 and SAP portal(WAS Java)

Hi All,
We have a requirement where client says ,there needs to be a SSL tunnel established between SAP R/3 and Portal(through ITS) to access R/3 through portal
Do we have to use SSL for that or SNC?I heard SNC is a mechanism which have to be used here since it uses DIAG protocol to connect but not Http.Is it true?Kindly give some more ideas on this.
Other thing is to do this they need to open a port between for using Firewall.Can you guide which SAP port has to be open for this connection?
Thanks In Advance

Hi Rani,
what the ITS Admin is, is explained in the docs to the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/44/28611e0bd26493e10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm">ITS Admin Tool</a>. This also includes how to access it.

CRM and NetWeaver Portal Related Question?

Dear All,
We have a requirement where in a single iView (CRM Opportunity), we would have a custom tab (call it CTAB1), clicking on which should display a separate web-based application within that tab. (as illustrated below):
The web based application would be called through a URL and a few parameters must be passed on along with it from the CRM application. All clicks within that tab would be processed by that application and once the process actions are completed, certain details would be passed back on to the CRM application. We will have custom tables and fields to capture that data in the CRM database. This data (static data) needs to be displayed under another custom tab (CTAB 2) in the same iView.
The web-based application can pass on and understand XML messages.
My queries are:
1.How feasible is this scenario?
2. What kind of effort is required to build CTAB1 (custom tab calling an external URL)?
3. What kind of effort is required to build CTAB2 (custom tab calling a custom table and custom fields residing in CRM DB)?
4. In case we decide to build the UI for the web-based application (UI elements in iView, no data in own DB, but calling APIs in the web-based application to process the data), what would be the approach required and how much additional effort would it require compared to 2?
Pl Suggest me
Thanks and Regards
PRadeep

Pradeep, first of all this scenario is definately feasible. The CRM Opportunnity iView you currently see is a so called PC-UI Application and withing the PC-UI framework several extension projects are possible. See for more basic information /people/vijaya.kumar/blog/2005/06/10/people-centric-user-interface-pcui--getting-started. [original link is broken] When the actual detail requirements can not be met in this framework a BSP Application would do the trick. On your other questions, I would say:
2 - Easy to achieve, use guide's example or have a look at /people/vijaya.kumar/blog/2005/06/10/people-centric-user-interface-pcui--getting-started on how to proceed.
3 - Easy to achieve, you can use EEW to realize this, have look at my weblog /people/vijaya.kumar/blog/2005/06/10/people-centric-user-interface-pcui--getting-started on how to achieve this.
4 - Think this approach os much more difficuolt to achieve withing the PC-UI Framework
These are my thoughts, hope it guides you in the right direction. Tiest.

Salesforce CRM and SAP Integration

Hello Experts,
I am supposed to come up with salesforce integration with SAP. Can you please let me know how do I start? What is that I can pick up from SAP to integrate this with salesforce and what are the hardware details required?
If somebody has worked on this please do let me know.
Thank you in advance,

1) send salesforce data through webservice to SAP XI. it will be done by using SOAP adapter.
2) XI will send data to SAP by idoc/rfc/proxy,depending on scenario.

SAP CRM AND SAP R/3

HI,
IS THE DATA IS SAME IN R/3 AND CRM SYSTEMS.
WHAT EVER FM'S AND BAPI'S AVAIABLE IN R/3 SYSTEM ARE ALL AVAILABLE IN CRM OR THERE MAY DIFFERENT IN CRM?
THANKS IN ADVANCE..

Jak,
There will be huge difference. Again it depends on what functionality you are looking at. Most probably you might find some common BAPI's on the sales side only.

How to run a servlet in eclipse using "SAP Portal Plugin" ( not tomcat)

Hi All
I'm just trying to create a simple servlet in Eclipse using SAP Portal Plugin but I couldn't find any document.
I have an eclipse 2.1
EP6 SP2 patch 5
SAP Portal Plugin
I created a Portal Application Project.
I created a simple servlet and save it under src.core directory.
My question is as follow:
1) Which directory I should put in the file web.xml?
2) Do I export this as *.par file?
3) When I export it. Can I just call the servlet from the url?
Anyone help.. I really appreciate.
thanks much.
Jen

Hi,
Portal plugin is used for developing SAP Portal applications ie Java iviews.
There is a set of procedures to develop Java iViews . You can develop either AbstractPortalComponent which is more or less equivalent of servlet in ordinary java world or JSPDynPage which is equivalent of JSP.
These plugins are used to develop any of the above portal components. If you are developing java applications for portal then you have to develop either of the above using the tools. These portlets( portal applications runs on Portal run time)
But servlets can run on J2EE itself.
But if your requirement is to develop servlet then you can create ordinary java project and deploy that in the J2EE server as like in any app server.
