About CRM sales cycle

Hi all,
I am new to CRM.
please tell me  What are sales cycle, opportuntity, quotation in CRM ?

Hi Vishal,
The sales cycle of a product or service begins when an opportunity for sales is recognized. This can arise by chance, for example, if a sales employee finds out about a worthwhile investment project during a conversation.
The process ends with a sales order or a rejection from the customer. In the meantime, various sales activities, such as sending information material, customer visits, product presentations, quotations and contractual negotiations, take place. An opportunity goes through a sales cycle which is divided into various phases. Specific sales activities are carried out in these phases.

  • How to add a table layout in CRM Sales order?

    dear all ,
    anyone know how to add a table layout in CRM sales order customer tab that using the EEWB added?
    can EEWB do this?   i didn't find the appropriate business object......

    Hi , Swapna
    is you mail address right? can not send out.
    first , you should have added one field using EEWB ,  then to EEWB , find the extension , double click on the task, there  you will find a  "object list"  on the right, the list will give you many many very important  information , you should look through .
    then double click on the "screen:  ..........EEW......." ,  layout , there you will find the field you have added in .  and you can draw anything you want there , then back to the screen flow , write you flow logic in PBO and PAI .
    about the global  data definition,  again to the "object list", you will find a "Report source code:  ......................TOP". in there ,you can define all you data .
    another thing  if you want to save your input field to database tables that you draw (not by EEWB added)
    two ways:
    1. write update table directly  in  PAI module .
    2.  you can use this BADI :  ORDER_SAVE , this is when you save the order to trigger the save action.

  • CRM SALES Hardware Required.

    Dear Friends:
    My organization is in the process of implementation of CRM Sales 7.0 in Phase-I & eCommerce (Web-Channel) in Phase-II.
    1. Can you please suggest me the HARDWARE Configuration required for both the applications . It is a MID -SIZE company.
    2. Will there be different Dev & PRD Servers for Implementing CRM SALES, Marketing, Services, & Web Channel.
    There will be MAX 20 Users on DEV Server & MAX 100-150 Users on PRD Server.
    An early help will highly be apprciated.
    | Regards | Pradeep |

    Hi
    Please find the answers below:-
    1. Can you please suggest me the HARDWARE Configuration required for both the applications . It is a MID -SIZE company.
    >> 1. CRM 7.0 Server
    2. ECC Server (Version 6.0) and again not sure if you going to use it or already you have the same implemented in your organisation
    3. TREX Server will be required if you going to use the WEB CHANNEL
    4. JAVA Server will be required as JAVA will be extensively used in WEB CHANNEL.
    5. Netweaver administrator need to be configured from WEB CHANNEL Perspective.
    There are SAP Documents such as CR100 (General CRM) and CR800 for WEB CHANNEL requirements. These documents will highlight the server requirement.
    The below link, though OLD enough, will give a fare idea about the architecture:
    http://csc-studentweb.lr.edu/swp/SAPPM/CaseStudies/Chapter%2007%20--%20Engaging%20the%20SAP%20Solution%20Stack%20Vendors/mySAP%20CRM%20Architecture%20Guide,%20White%20Paper%20by%20Compaq.pdf
    2. Will there be different Dev & PRD Servers for Implementing CRM SALES, Marketing, Services, & Web Channel.
    >> Within one development server you can configure CRM Sales Marketing, Service and web channel scenarios. You obviously need to have a seperate server as your production server. Development server will be used to configure the scenarios, do a business specific development. Testing will be done on development server and then if everything is ok, these changes will be moved to production server
    Hope this will help

  • SAP CRM Sales or Service or Marketing Professional Certification Exam

    Dear Experts,
    I have Experience in SAP ABAP and BW .
    I want to write SAP CRM Professional Certification Exam.
    But my Question is in which CRM module(Sales/Service/Marketing), I should do the certification.
    I mean which would be useful in  my career.
    Please let me know.
    Thank you.
    Regards
    Sam

    As you know in ERP, BW is cross system, in CRM happens the same, fristly I would ask myself in which ERP process where I was more involved. If I dealt with docuemtns (business transactions) I would go for SAP CRM Sales, if my vision is wider (MM, FI, CO) and not so focused on the SD area I would go for the services.
    In your situation I would go for the SAP Certified Application Associate - CRM Fundamentals with SAP CRM 7.0 EhP2 and forget about the "Professional" ones.

  • Deletion of Complete Sales Cycle

    Is there any shortcut to completely delete the sales cycle including sales order,delivery,pgi,invoice and accounting document and all the impact are reversed as there were some major issues in the data entry and there is no other wayout.I  have  to bring the sd module to the state of"new born".Help!!!

    hi,
    then clean up the tables and keep the cleaned information in archive.
    From my little experience in systems implementation, support and administration, one phenomenon that has contradicting meaning depending on the context in which it is used is archiving or data archiving. Often times, IT professionals tend to confuse the term with concepts such as data reorganization, fragmentation, document imaging, backup and restore among others. Even in the SAP world, some technical professionals takes data archiving to be synonymous with terminologies such as SAP Archive Link and DART.
    While I do not intend to do a compare and contrast these phenomenons in this post, I think it is expedient to clearly define what data archiving is in the context of SAP. I will also give an overview of how data is archived and the benefits of data archiving in SAP.
    What is Data Archiving?
    Data Archiving is a decongestion process used to delete large volume of data that is no longer needed from a database and storing same outside the database in a format that allows for data retrieval and analysis when need be. The emphasis here are on u201Cdeletingu201D and u201Cstoringu201D. It is common knowledge that if a database is left to grow unmaintained, there is a possibility of having performance bottlenecks and high database maintenance cost. Hence, one of the ways to maintain the database is to delete records that can be termed obsolete. The word u201Cobsoleteu201D is relative. For the archiving process to be complete, data has to be stored using a defined method.
    How is data archived?
    The data archiving run follows a sequence of steps. A brief overview is provided below.
    1. Creation of the archive file: During an archive run, the write program first creates archive files which initiates the reading process (from the database) and the consequent writing process (to the archive file)
    2. Storage of the archive file: After successful run of step 1, the created archive files are stored. A number of methods can be leveraged to store an archive file. Archived files can be stored hierarchically, optically or manually. It is important to state that SAP does not recommend the manual storage of archive file. This is as a result of some standardization issues
    3. Deletion of data: This step terminates the archive run. Before data is deleted from the database, the program first read the content of the archive file. It is after this task, that the program deletes the corresponding entry from the database.
    Benefits of Data Archiving
    1. Reduced Backup and Restore time
    2. Reduced access time for tables
    3. Reduced database administration cost
    4. Reduced downtime for system upgrade
    5. Reusability of data

    One thing that is mentioned, but not really emphasized, is that the zooming when opening and closing Apps is now gone when the reduce motion setting is enabled. I guess too many people where claiming sea sickness and Apple wanted to avoid lawsuits.
    Now the nay sayers will have to refocus their efforts and complain about the font and the icons.
