Replication of BPs from CRM to R/3

Hi folks,
I have a task of replicating BPs from CRM to OLTP system. I am new in this area. Can anyone guide me with some kinda step by step documentation, SAP notes. Once I am done with this, I need to replicate the Sales Orders too. Please guide.
Thanks
John

Hi Fredrick
Just check out the Best Practices for CRM Master data and transactional data replication guide (C03) on the following link.

TCRMBP_REFCUST --- Replication of BPs from CRM to ECC

Hi -
We have a CRM - ECC (SD / ISU) environment.
I have a question about TCRMBP_REFCUST table.
1. How exactly is this table used? Is this table used when replicating the CRM BP into ECC?
2. This table seems to give me a better control over the sales area I want for the replicated partner in SD? But, I am confused about using this table and using the PIDE table (CRM -> R3) as they both control the Account Group for the SD Customer.
3. So, can somebody please give more explanation on how the TCRMBP_REFCUST & the PIDE table (CRM -> R3) play together in this replication process?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Pradhip.S

Hi Pradhip,
Perfect, lets visit SAP documentation again - [Business Partner Replication|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crmscen70/helpdata/en/60/85b5d333f4174b8e982c1c15db35f3/frameset.htm].
In 1st few paragraphs, it describes about "concept of the business partner or SD customer in SAP ERP" - which is as follows:
When creating or changing a business partner with the role Sales Prospect or Contract Partner, you can specify a sample customer (SD customer) in SAP ERP. This creates an SD customer for the business partner with the same number as the business partner. Data is copied from the sample customer (tables KNA1, KNB1, KNVV, KNVP, KNVA, KNVI, KNVD, KNEX, KNVS and KNVL). Name and address data, as well as some additional fields, are transferred from the business partner. If the SD customer already exists, the system only transfers part of the data from the sample customer (only the sales and distribution areas that do not yet exist).
Above settings is maintained at SAP Utilities->Master Data->Business Partner->Settings for Creating Standard Customers->Maintain Parameter (Table - TEKND).
(*Back to SAP documentation*)
If you now connect a CRM system, the central data from the CRM business partner is exchanged with the business partner in SAP ERP, and the CRM-specific data is exchanged with the SD customer. The CRM business partner has the same number as the business partner in SAP ERP and the SD customer.
You work mainly with the BUPA_MAIN queue. You only work with the CUSTOMER_MAIN queue when you are changing SD customer data, such as sales area data.
To execute the business partner concept specific to the utilities industry, you must convert the following control tables....
So, since CRM is in place which will act as central data management, we need to maintain reference customer values in CRM specific tables in ECC.. where table TCRMBP_REFCUST will be useful. This table is accessed by function module - COM_BUPA_MWX_MAP_ISU (Mapping - Proxy-BAPI Business Partner Main-BDOC).
Now if we read following statments on table TCRMBP_REFCUST, it will make sense:
(*Back to SAP documentation*)
Sample Customers in the Delta Upload
You can store sample customers in the ERP table TCRMBP_REFCUST (transaction SE16). These sample customers are used when creating a business partner in SAP CRM. This means that less data is transferred than when creating an R/3 business partner (ERP tables KNVD, KNB1, KNEX, KNVS and KNVL; transaction SE16).
In table TCRMBP_REFCUST, the system searches generically for a sample customer:
First it searches by Category, Grouping, and Type, then by Category and Grouping (with Type = SPACE), then only by Category (with Grouping and Type = SPACE), and finally with all three key fields as SPACE.
Initial Download
Before performing the initial download, check whether an SD customer has been created for all business partners in SAP ERP, for which this is desired or necessary. (For example, to an SD customer is necessary to use the billing engine in SAP CRM).
You should also check whether business partners already exist for all SD customers. Business partner creation for SD customers is supported by tools (for example, during the SAP for Utilities implementation). In the scenario described, you must not directly create any SD customers (except sample customers), as you are not replicating anything in SAP CRM.
Please let me know if this was helpful.

Replication of Prospects from crm to r\3

hello Experts
is there any way to stop the replication of prospects from crm to r/3.....
we are facing a problem with out validating the prospect the prospects are replicating in r/3...
can u please help me out in this
thanks in advance
regards
sreeram

Shweta is right about the PIDE setting in R/3, but this does stop only the update in R/3, not the sending of prospects towards R/3.
To do it correctly, you need to create new subscriptions for the R/3:
1. Delete the subscription, publication and replication object on BUPA_MAIN in SMOEAC
2. Create a new intelligent replication object with filter on IS_CUSTOMER with option EQ (which means you want only customers to be replicated). Alternatively you can create a filter on IS_PROSPECT and option NE
3. You create the appropriate publication and subscription and assign it to the R/3 site
Now only BP's with the customer flag will get replicated (or those without the prospect flag). The customer flag will get set usually automatically with the customer role or can be manually set in the classification tab of role customer (field BPISCUST), but the prospect flag will stay if you turn the prospect into a customer.
So you need to make sure that when setting the BPISCUST flag that the BPISPROS flag is unset, when you do the alternative filtering on IS_PROSPECT (manually or in a BADI on customer save).

Replication of BP from CRM to IS-U (ECC)

Hello,
Our problem is that the BP with the role sold-to party created in CRM is not being replicated in the contract partner role (MKK) in IS-U and the SD-customer is also not being created in ECC.
I can see the problem is that an appropriate reference customer model is not found.....but shouldn't the reference customer be taken from table TCRMBP_REFCUST when the BP is created in CRM??
Because in IS-U: SAP Utilities > Master Data > Business Partner> Settings for Creating Standard Customers
...You can only define one reference customer for the role Contract patner (MKK)....and here we have used the reference customer for BP created in IS-U.
I believe we need two reference customer (models), one that is used when the BP is created in IS-U and one when the BP is created in CRM...is this correct?
System information:
We have followed the IS-U specifications for the set-up and load guide for the BP. We have suceeded with the initial download from IS-U/ECC -> CRM.
Now we are trying to create BP in CRM and get it replicated to IS-U(as MKK) and ECC (as SD-customer xd01). CRM ->IS-U/ECC Is not working as assumed.
We are using the 'Strategy for Number Assignment Using the Same Numbers' and 'Strategy for Equal Status Systems' (IS-U/ECC->CRM and CRM ->IS-U/ECC)
Hope someone can help us out. I will reward maximum points
Kind Regards
Saima

Hello Irene,
Thanks for your reply.
The parameters in the PIDE transaction should be ok as there is no problem in this kind of correspondance...
The problem is that you can only define one reference customer for the BP role Contract patner (MKK).....and here we have used the reference customer(100110) The numberrange for BP created in IS-U is 100110-199999 that's why the replication works correctly for BP's created in IS-U.
On the other hand the no. range for BP created in CRM is 200111-299999. This leads to problems, as the contract partner can only be allocated to reference customer 100110 and not the reference customer (200114) which is meant for BP created in CRM.
When we create the BP (Sold-to party) in CRM it creates a BP (Contract partner) in IS-U...this contract partner has a field for reference customer, which remains empty when the BP is created in CRM => This leads to the fact that no SD customer is created in the background.
My question is how the SD partner can be created in the correct no. range....Can I somehow populate this reference customer field for BP (Contract partner) during the replication from CRM to IS-U?
Kind Regards
Saima

Replication od order from crm to r/3

I'm trying to Create order in CRM 4.0 and wanted to replicate to ECC 5.0, for replicating order from crm to r/3,what are the settings required both in r/3 and crm
Thanks&regards

Hi Kishore,
You can refer to in Best Practice C71 - connectivity.
http://help.sap.com/bp_crmv250/CRM_DE/BBLibrary/Documentation/C71_BB_ConfigGuide_EN_US.doc
The above one is for CRM 5.0, but its similar in 4.0 too, except for a table entry in R3 side. In ECC table CRMPAROLTP, you have to specify the release version of the CRM system.There you mention your proper CRM release (400 instead of 500) . FOr rest of the config, use the same manual.
ALso, refer "C03: CRM Master and Transaction Data Replication":
http://help.sap.com/bp_crmv250/CRM_DE/BBLibrary/Documentation/C03_BB_ConfigGuide_EN_US.doc
This 2 docs are sufficient for normal replication.
If you want full Middleware setup, in best practice, follow the documentation - B01, C71, B09, C03 in that order.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you want anything more.
Reward points if this helps.

Error in replication sales order from CRM 5 to ECC 6

Hi,
I am new to the middleware
When I am trying to replicate the sales order from CRM 5 to ECC 6, i found the following error in SMW01 R/3 adapter is called
Message no. CRM_ORDER_MISC024
I am unable to track what may be the problem and even I have checked the SMQ1 & SMQ2 in both CRM and ECC but nil.
Can anybody help me out?
Thanks in advance

Hi Binu,
Try check also the SMQ1 & SMQ2 on R/3 when you start trigger the
document transfer from CRM to ECC. If you cannot see any similar document
appear here, seems like your Middleware filter has not properly set.
Check Middleware filter for document transfer, if I am not mistake, the object
is SALES_DOCUMENT.
Just check, if there filter which block the document to be sent to R/3.
Hope this helps.

Replicating BPs from CRM to ERP

Hi guys,
Maybe i know what are the necessary steps to replicate CRM -> ERP?
Could someone help me?
thanks!

Hi Lee,
SMOEAC is the transaction code which is responsible for data to flow from CRM to R/3.
Now if you want BP Changes done in CRM to move to R/3, then goto tcode SMOEAC.
1. Select the Object Type as Site - Click on display button.
2. Select R/3 site and just expanding on it - we will get subscriptions assigned for the site R/3
3. Create the following subscriptions.
a. All Business Partners,
b. All Business Partner Relationships,
c. All Business Partner Hierarchies Subscriptions.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

Replication sales order from CRM to R/3?

Hi Gurus
I need some advice. We are implementing CRM for a over client
Over sale Cycle is LeadOpportunity- sales order- delivery  billing
Once sales order created in CRM we have to send that sales order to SAP R/3
Then delivery and Billing will do in R/3?
So what are the Middleware settings we have to do?
Please explain me in a clear format
Regards u2026
Rosie

Hello Rosie,
If given not so complex scenario, you may go like this:
1.make all the necessary settings the same in CRM and R/3, including sales transaction type, item category ....
2.transaction smoeac, under R/3 site, create subscription to "All Business Transactions (MESG)"
If you does not want all the business transaction flow to R/3, you may consider to create a simple intelligent replication object for business transaction, and limit the data transfer for TA only for example.

Replication of BP from CRM to R/3

Hi all,
      I got a problem in moving the business partner form CRM 4.0 to R/3 backend. In doing so, a mBDoc gets generated with the status 'sent to receivers ( not all have confirmed )' and when i see the error detail, it says 'Make an entry in all required fields'.
      I've double checked the mappings of BP groupings, classifications and account groups in both the system ( especially in tcode PIDE of R/3 ). Everything is fine. I even tried by setting all the fields in R/3 as 'optional entry' in the field status group.
      Am i to do any settings other than this.
Please Respond immediately.. its very urgent for me.
Thanks in advance
regards.

Hello Suresh,
There is a way to find out what field is missed.
I will explain step by step.
First you have to change the default RFC user (in my system it is called RFCUSER) in R/3 to be type Dialog and not System in transaction SU01.
Then stop outbound queue in SMQ1 transaction in CRM, inside the transaction use menu Goto - QOUT Scheduler, click on the R/3 destination and then click in Deregistration(Don´t forget to reactivate it after your tests are finished clicking on Registration)
Then create a partner in transaction BP.
Go back to transaction SMQ1. A queue must appears stopped in this transaction - named R3AUBUPA.
Double Click in this line and double click again in the next screen.
Then click on a button with a red arrow (Debug LUW).
A debug window will appear, then insert a break point into statement CALL TRANSACTION and press F8.
The program will stop in the place where the standard create the partner in R/3, because it uses call transaction XD01 to do that.
Now it is easy, you have only to change the variable mode to be A - Display all screens and see what is missed.
If you found my help nice, please don´t forget to point it.
I did it many times, so I am sure it works at least in release 3.0, so in case you need more help, just answer back that I will be glad to give you more details.

Mauricio

Replication error BP from CRM to R/3 - "Fill in all required entry Fields"

Dear Folks
I have maintained all steps mentioned in building block - C03. I have maintained separate account group approach. Made sure that number ranges are in sync in both the systems. Particularly in PIDE, mapping classification Consumer-Org 'A' to 'ZZ01' (Copy of 0001).
      I changed all required entry to optional entry in my 'ZZ01' field status using OVT0.
       But when i replicate using R3AS, i get an error 'Fill in all required entry Fields" - Error in receiving system (i.e R/3).
       I tried manually creating customer in R/3 with the account group ZZ01. Surprisingly it does not allows me to save unless i give the reconcillation account entry, even though it is not a required field.
   Please let me know for further details and Please help me to resolve this error. I am in real urgency.
Thanks

Hi Karunakaran
        Your reply answered my question of creating customer with no 'recon' a/c required entry. Thanks awarded 2 points.
          My replication error is still hanging around. I found that It has no bearing on the 'Reconcillation A/c' required entry.
          Some other field is still restricting my BP Role- Consumer:Organization to replicate. The error still showing as "required fields are not entered in R/3", even after suppressing "Reconcillation Account".
       I think my reference customer master i created in R/3 using VD07 is not assigned in case of the account group Consumer:Organization.
   But i don't know how to verify my doubts and get rid of this error.
Please help, in great urgency.

Replication of masterdata from CRM 2005 to ECC and using filter

Hi all.
My client have a certain account group configurated in crm. business partners for this account are automatically entered in the CRM system via upload. This business partners should NOT be replicated to ECC.
I thought this was a peace of cake so i enterd a filter for table but000 and found the correct field group_bu for object bupa_main. I am very surprized because this filter do not work at all. Then i tried to set filter on partnernumber but no success. the business partner was replicated and i got an red light in smw02.
Is more config neccessary somewhere to get my filter to work ??

Replication of order from CRM to R/3

Hi all
I created an order type(Transaction Type) in CRM ZXXX and I created a same sales document type ZXXX in R/3 as well.
What are the middleware settings do i need to do so that when an order gets created in SAP CRM should replicate to R/3 automatically.
I am using CRM 5.0 and SAP R/3 4.7
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Sonali

Hi,
There are a few things that should be done:
1. Check teh Middleware is totally up: Use Report RM_ODE_CHECK_CONFIG
Just try to remove all teh entries in RED (if any)
2. Check a site for R/3 has been created and subscription ALL_BUSINESS_TRANSACTION (MESG) is assigned to this site. Thsi can be checked in Tcode: SMOEAC
3. Now check teh number ranges in CRM is the external number range in R3
4. Check the BP and Product that you are coing to use in CRM order, have already been replicated into R/3
Also for other references, you can see note 490932
Kindly reward with points in case helpful
