Updating business partner hierarchy in CRM

Hi,
I Need to build a interface to update business partner hierarchy (Transaction BPH) in CRM. I can not find a suitable FM/BAPI for this purpose. Please advise me how to accomplish this.

Hi,
Where do you start to activate or configure Business Address Services in R/3 Business partners. Any links to user guides or startup documents will be greatly helpful.
Thanks very much

Mass Update of Business Partner Data in CRM

Hi,
I would like to know how I can perform a mass update of business partner data in CRM and then have this replicated into R/3.
I have found notes 802804, 876602, 859632 but these only apply to CRM 5.0 and we are currently working on CRM 4.0. Does anyone know of anything similar which exists in CRM 4.0?
I have checked other posts and found help files links like the one below but is this only on CRM 5.0? (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm50/helpdata/en/3c/9b56fae6c7424cafcdf17370399812/frameset.htm )
Has anyone used the tx. MASS in CRM?
Also our volume update levels is as high as 300,000 record and updating in CRM and replicating into R/3 through the middleware is causing performance problems.
Does anyone have any tips on the best approach for this? Many thanks.
Regards
JoJo

Mass not available in 4.0, could write your own LSMW routine but you still will create bdocs for updates so not sure how that will improve your performance.

Create or Update Business Partner in CRM ?

Dear Folks ,
Scenario is to Create or update Business partner in CRM from thirdparty system via PI
It would be great if you could clarify the following
Hope we have BAPI to create and Update Business partner in CRM system but my question is
1. Can we use any predelivered PI content - Message Interfaces - as proxies ( Server proxies ) to create BP from system ?
2. Same interface will work for Update as well ?
IF so what is that content ? where to find for our PI System ?
3. Can we use the same way for Client proxies as well when we want to update the business partner ?
4. What are the inbound and outbound Message Interfaces are available ?
Any help will be highly appreciated
Thanks.,
Shiva

Hi Ravi ,
I think that i am not described my question properly , Say i have CRM system where i have to create BP for this input comes from external system (forget about the system ) , Here i want to use Proxy (Server proxy ) which helps me create Business partner in CRM system .
Here my question is If sap delivers the Inbound interface ( where server proxy already generated by SAP) , which i will use to create BP ?
Can we do in this way ?
Thanks
Shiva

Business Partner Hierarchy

Hi all,
I have created the Business partner Hierarchy in BPH transaction. Currently Iam using CRM 5.0 SP07 system.
I have created a tree with top node as Customer Group and remaining all 4 nodes for 4 regions.
Under these 4 nodes for ex. under South node I will assign all the customers like C1,C2,C3 & C4.
This structure is created in Tcode BPH & saved. But when I come out of this transaction and try to see the same tree as I have drawn is gone missing.
I need know whether is it possible to see this tree in CRM 5.0 SP07 system or I can see this tree in some where else?
Pls. guide me.
Thanks in advance.

DTW problem when updating business partner

Hi Experts,
I want to update business partner master data via DTW.
I only want to update the Remarks.
In my import file only the fields RecordKey, CardCode and FreeText are filled.
Example:
RecordKey: 1
CardCode: C20000
FreeText: My Remarks
The import is successful and the remarks were filled but the DTW has also updated other fields in the business partner master data.
Before update via DTW the business partner has no payment methods included on the payment system tab but after update via DTW the payment method is included and is defined as Standard.
Any idea?
Thanks for help.
Jacqueline

Hi,
yes, the existing payment methods were defined manually before update.
But the payment method was not included for that business partner.
Here are some hardcopys before update and after update.

Middleware: Business Partner replication from CRM 4.0 -- R/3 4.6c.

Business Partner created in CRM & is getting replicated into R/3 with Sales Area Data. Configuration is working fine.
Requirement: Automate Accounting view creation in R/3 using middleware.
1. That is if the user creates Sales view using sales organisation "xxxx" in CRM then the system should create Accounting view in R/3 company code "YYYY".
Please confirm, wheather its possible? ? How?
2. If in CRM, the Sales Organisation is "AAAA", then create accounting view in company code "BBBB" (R/3)
Your valuable input please.
With Regards,
Bapu

Hi Tiest,
Yes, PIDE entries made.
BP is replcating in R/3 successfully.
In R/3 transaction "XD01" if we create customer along with "Account Group" & "Company code", view "company code data" is visible. I would like to populate this view with "Reconciliation account" entry.
While passing data from CRM, I would like to pass company code. At present, while passing BP from CRM to R/3, Account View is not getting created.
Ex. If the user creates Sales view using sales
Organisation xxxx in CRM then the system should create Accounting view in R/3 company code YYYY.
Please reply, if further information required.

Business partner replication from CRM to ECC

Hi everyone,
In case of vendor master data after business partner creation in CRM the vendor Master Data should get created in ECC
system also at the moment i dont have an idea whether it will get replicated to ecc are not can any one help me how to acheive this requirement.

>>Messages sent when I test corresponding proxy interface, but not sent when I try to create or modify BP. What else should I check to find out the reason of this problem?
BP Creation will be done be a standard SAP program may be a Function Module. Change Pointer or User Exist should be added to this BP Creation Function Module in order to trigger the Proxy Class with BP data.
Though am not an ABAP expert, I guess the changesshould be done to the standard flow to trigger Proxy Class also..

Extracting Business Partner information from CRM to XI

What is the best approach to extract Business Partner information from CRM to XI

Hi,
by IDOCs of course
you can create them just like I did:
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2006/11/14/xipi-data-type-enhancements-standard-business-partner
(you jut need to change from proxy to ALE - another module)
but bisically it's a standard to generate
a business partner record and send it as an IDOC from CRM

Update Business Partner Master Data for Incident Management

Hi fellow SAP-ians,
I have two questions that I need to ask in relation to Incident Management SOLMAN 7.1:
1) Can Business Partner (BP) master data be mass updated via a catt script? (recording of transaction BP)
2) What BP roles can I use if i need to capture profit center, cost center and department info for each BP and to be able to display those info from Incident Management (CRM Web UI)?
Thanks in advance. Your swift response is highly appreciated.
B.Regards,
Khairul

Hi Vikram,
I appreciate your quick response. I went over the document that you've mentioned. However, nothing in there seemed to help.
Just FYI, i need to create/change approx. 25,000 Business Partners in SOLMAN 7.1 by 1)creating system users in SOLMAN and 2) execute report AI_SDK_USER_BP_GEN to generate/update BP IDs accordingly.
My question was, lets say if i needed to enter profit center, cost center and division info into each BP. In what BP role and fields, besides the standard BUP001 (Contact Person) & BUP003 (Employee), that I can use to enter those type of information?
For example, profit center - 88KUL186; cost center - 88KUL186; division - KLIA.
Thanks in advance.

Update Business Partner via SAP Business One Webservices

Dear all,
We use the SAP Business One Webservices to add/update businesspartners and items.
We can add/update items without any problem.
We can also add businesspartners without any problem.
But when we try to update a businesspartner.
We always get the error message : "Entry already exists in following tables:"
This is the code we use to update BusinessPartner:
Dim bpsService As BP.BusinessPartnersService = New BP.BusinessPartnersService()
Dim msgheader As BP.MsgHeader = New BP.MsgHeader()
msgheader.SessionID = sSessionID
    msgheader.ServiceName = Global.BP.MsgHeaderServiceName.BusinessPartnersService
    msgheader.ServiceNameSpecified = True
    bpsService.MsgHeaderValue = msgheader
            ' fill business partner class
            Dim oBp As BP.BusinessPartner = Nothing
            Dim myBPParams As BP.BusinessPartnerParams = New BP.BusinessPartnerParams()
            myBPParams.CardCode = sCardCode
            ' Call GetByParams command
            oBp = bpsService.GetByParams(myBPParams)
oBp.CardName = "Test update BP"
Can someone tell me what is going wrong when I call this function :
bpsService.Update(oBp)
Kind regards
Bart

Hi Bart,
I think the problem is because you are using the BPService twice without initializing it one more time in the middle.
You call first GetByParams and then Update.
The following code works for me:
        myBPService = New BusinessPartnersService()
        Dim myBP As BusinessPartner = New BusinessPartner()
        Dim myBPParams As BusinessPartnerParams = New BusinessPartnerParams()
        ' Create Header
        Dim msgHeader As MsgHeader = New MsgHeader()
        msgHeader.SessionID = B1WS_WindowsSample.GlbData.sessionID
        msgHeader.ServiceName = MsgHeaderServiceName.BusinessPartnersService
        msgHeader.ServiceNameSpecified = True
        myBPService.MsgHeaderValue = msgHeader
        myBPParams.CardCode = MainForm.CardCodeTextBox.Text
        myBP = myBPService.GetByParams(myBPParams)
        myBPService = New BusinessPartnersService()
        ' Create Header
        msgHeader = New MsgHeader()
        msgHeader.SessionID = B1WS_WindowsSample.GlbData.sessionID
        msgHeader.ServiceName = MsgHeaderServiceName.BusinessPartnersService
        msgHeader.ServiceNameSpecified = True
        myBPService.MsgHeaderValue = msgHeader
        System.Console.Out.WriteLine("Update a BP")
        myBP.CardName = "CardName MOD"
        '/ call Asyncronous Add
        myBPService.Update(myBP)
Hope it works also for you

How to stop the replication of a particular business partner from sap crm to sap ecc - BDOC

Hi experts,
I need to know the procedure to stop replicating a particular BP #1234(example) from CRM to ECC. I don't want this BP to be replicated in ECC as in ECC this BP will not be maintained.
BDOC failure:
In my current scenario BDOCs are failing with error like "No BP exist". Since this BP #1234 itself is not present in ECC, the error is obvious.
This BP #1234 is defined in CRM as an Org. Unit. We don't maintain Org. Unit in ECC. All other BP are saved under this BP(#1234).
Issue:
So whenever a new BP(example #ABC) is created, the BUPA_REL type BDOC fails with error "BP with number #1234 doesnot exist.
I don't want this to happen. So what i found if we can stop the replication of this particular BP #1234, then if we make any change to the relation BP, this error should not come.
Please help me to resolve this BDOC error.
regards,
Vicky

Hi Ganesh,
1st we create a Organization structure through tcode-PPOSA_CRM.
A business Partner is created which represent the Organization Structure partner ID.
2nd we create a BP through and do a Org. assignment in tcode - PPOSA_CRM.
A business Partner is created which represent the any customer partner ID.
As soon as you do an assignment,assigning the customer BP to the org BP, a BUPA_REL BDoc flow but it fails.
Error we get in the BDoc: "BP XXXX doesnot exist"
Reason: Since this Org BP is not present in ECC, the BDoc fails in CRM.
Possible Resolution 1:
1. I created this Org. BP in ECC through CRMM_BUPA_MAP
2. The BP got created.
3.Then i tried to assign a new customer BP to Org BP to check if the issue is resolved, but we get another type of error 'BP is not defined as internal Org. Unit".
I don't know how to define BP as an internal Org. Unit in ECC?
Can you please help me in this.
Possible Resolution 2:
If i can stop this particular BUPA_REL BDoc which contains this Org.unit BP, from getting replicated, means when i assign the customer BP to Org.Unit BP, BUPA_REL should not be triggered.
I don't know if this is possible or not, but if this is possible, i would consider this a last option to resolve this issue.
Please let me know if this helps you to understand the issue i am facing?
regards,
Vicky

Business Partner Replication from CRM to R/3

Hello friends,
I am not able to replicate BP from CRM to R/3. When i create a business partner i see bdoc
in SMW01 with status in yellow colour and there is no error description. If i try to debug
the replication in foreground, i can see all the entries which i entered in CRM done in R/3,
but it stops at the Customer attribute screen(Additiona fields as seen in Extras in the task
bar) and doesnot goes further, even if i enter something it remains in the same state. As
per me the customer attribute field in not mandatory in R/3, i dint found the settings for
it in SPRO but logically if R/3 system allows me to save the customer without entering the
attributes then my thinking should be right.
Kindly give me some pointers to resolve this or please let me know the check points,
prerequisites for replication of customers from CRM to R/3.
Thanks & Regards,
Yogesh

Hi Yogesh,
Check the R/3 transaction OB20, Double clidk on "Create Customer (Centrally) "
Here we maintain the options for all the field e.g required / optional etc..

Business Partner creation in CRM/SRM with ID Management

Hi,
I have tried to find info about Business partner management with IDM to CRM/SRM...
Customer would have two use cases.. Internal and External users...
Internal use case is quite straight forward in IDM documentation.. I have two questions about this,,,
1. ALE connection from HCM to CRM/SRM to create BPs to internal users... is there anywhere documentation how to configure this ALE connection?
2. Is after SU01 user is created - Linking to BP automatical when using Business Suite connector ?
External use case. Customer would like to implement scenario, where BP is created either:
1. on CRM/SRM and IDM user would be created... and after approving new IDM user SU01 user with roles would be created nd BP linking would happen...
2. on IDM user is created - BP and SU01 user would be created on CRM side... and linking between them..
On external use case I have understood- that first one is possible without stronger customization and ABAP programming?
--- first one requires VDS and SPML ID store on IDM side
And something to send Newly created BP from CRM to IDM with SPML
or does IDM check regularry with SPML CRM for newly created BPs??
Does anyone know how actually this is happening?
And is there any special configuration needed on CRM side? or some transaction to run after BP creation?
IDM version 7.1 SP5
Ystävällisin terveisin / Kind Regards
Veli-Matti Luotonen

Hi,
Check whether the BP roles have been defined in the system.
Go to Customizing:
Cross-Application Components -> SAP Business Partner -> Business Partner -> Basic Settings -> Define BP Roles
Here you can define BP Roles and BP Categories.
Make sure the appropriate category is assigned to the BP role that you are trying to create. For this select the BP role and click on the "details" button.
Also read the documentation provided here.

Reema.
