There are three steps you have to make in order to be ablr to connect to a system from VC:
1. Define system.
2. Define alias.
3. Define user mapping (for the user that connects from VC to the portal)
please check step 3.

Connection between CRM back end and ASP front end website for Ecommerce

Hi All,
I want to establish the connection between a ASP website and CRM back end server(we are replacing th existing ERP back end system with SAP CRM ).
I want to know whether I have to go with XI or any other connectors provided by SAP to establsih the communication between the existing ASP website and CRM back end server..
Can anyone please help me out.
Thank you,

Okay here is the general concept for your scenario:
-You will call standard/custom RFC's(could be BAPI's) in the CRM system from the existing application.
-You will need to write a new model layer in your ASP application that calls the RFC layer in CRM
-You decide what data you want to use from CRM in your application
Let's assume at minimum you will want to use the product master, business partner master, and business transactions. You will need RFC's/BAPI's for every interaction point where you will consume/publish data to CRM.
So when an user creates an order from your e-commerce site, you will need to support saving an order in CRM. This is example of how you need to map out each function in your existing site to a part of the CRM system. Since we don't know what your site currently does, this is something you would have to do.
Once you have mapped out the business level data to the CRM system, then you can evaluate where you will need a BAPI and/or RFC call. Once that is done, then you can look at the CRM system and see what standard pieces can be called. Then everything else is custom development. Your ASP application will call CRM via RFC.
It is possible to do what you want to do, but it is going to require a lot mapping work and a fair amount of development effort to integrate the two pieces. I don't know if you might be better off looking at the SAP Internet Sales Solution instead so you could focus only customizing that application, instead of worrying about an integration problem. It just depends on how much special functionality your existing e-commerce site has today.
My general recommendation would be for you to hire a consultant that has done an SAP e-commerce project using SAP CRM in the past and let them guide you on the implementation issues. An on-site resource could better answer your "high-level" questions.
However if you have more questions please ask and I will try to answer to the best of my knowledge.
Good luck,
Stephen

Value for customized fields didn't get copied to back end system

Hi,
We are in SRM 4.0 and using extended classic scenario.
We have defined two customized fields in account assignment tab in shopping cart and SRM Po and also in back end PO.
SRM POs are having values for the field but while transferring the Po details to back end system, for some of the line items of the Po the entries are missing in back end system.
Problem is only with few line items of the PO.
Have tried with FM like BBP_PD_PO_TRANSFER_EXEC and BBP_PD_SC_RESUBMIT, but it is not transfering the values to back end.
Is there any other way to push the missing values to back end system.
Please advise.
Thanks.

Sk,
Table adjustment has to be done accordingly. Get in touch with your Basis team.
Thanks.

Invisible Text Fields/Print Button error

Ok, so I'm creating a blank form for users to input data fields and then print them out on a pre-made paper form. I started out using Adobe Designer 7.0.
While I was using 7.0, I made all of the Text Fields, and spent hours lining them up to print out correctly in their corresponding boxes on the pre-made paper form that we load into the printer. (Already tried scanning the form and creating a form that way, but the scanner is weird and scales everything incorrectly.)
I upgraded to Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES today so that I could make Text visible on the form, but not visible when it prints, so that I can label each Text Field, otherwise it's just a blank template with random Text Fields all over.
Well, after upgrading, I created the Texts prompts above each Text Field and I selected Visible (screen-only) for each one of them, hoping that once I printed the form out, those texts prompts won't print out on the pre-made paper form. But, to my dismay, they printed out even though I selected the option for them to NOT print out.
So I was doing some reading and decided to add a "print button" to my form. I added the print button. Made it visible (screen-only). Printed out another form, and BAM. All of the hours I spent lining up those Text Fields went to waste because all of a sudden my Text Fields are all over the paper. I immediately removed the print button, assuming that was the problem, but for some reason my text fields are still all over the paper.
I don't want to spend the hours and hours I spent lining them up again. It just took too long. Does anyone know what happened here? If so, how do I fix it?
Also, how do I make it so that the Text prompts I created do NOT print when I print out the form?
I'm sure this is all an easy fix for you experienced ones. I'm a noob... obviously...

Thank you for the help, but I'm still not really sure what I should be doing here. I went to form properties, but didn't see any kind of settings that would fix what I'm having problems with. I'm using Adobe Designer ES 8.2.1 now, but for some reason when I make my text Visible (screen-only), it still prints out when I click print. This shouldn't happen and I can't figure out what's wrong. I've reasearched all I can, but can not find a solution.

Problem in opening MS Word doc from CRM back-end.

Hi All:
I have a MS Word document stored in my CRM system which opens by passing a transaction number as input. When we try to preview the word
doc it opens properly from back-end.
But the real problem exists when i'm trying to open it from my web-dynpro thru java, it never opens in a correct format(i mean it never opens at all). When I stored it in local machine to open it from notepad, i could see all the junk data along with original text.
If any one have done this successfully before, plz do let me know the way or send me the code sample to read word from webdynpro java. I've implemented with couple of options which didnt worked.
Munna_SAP

Hi All:
I've solved it by my own and it opens the word document properly.
Solution: I didnt looked at the r\3 end that how it was coded, i've changed my code in java to meet the requirement.
Tnx,
Munna_SAP

Print Button in CrystalReportViewer 64-bit x64 VS2005 does not respond

Hello,
I'm using the CrystalReportViewer-Control comes with VS2005 CR.
When I deploy the application to a W2008 R2-System the print button shows no response.
I'm still installed the CR-Runtime for x64 Systems on the Target-Server: CRRedist2005_X64.msi
For testpurposes I installed a VS2005 on a W2008 R2 Server. On this platform I installed the CR-SP1-Patch for the environment: crvs05sp1.exe. After that the print button responds on the test-system.
Then I created a setup project on this test-system with mergemodules: CrystalReportsRedist2005_x64.msm and deployed it to the target-server. But with no success. The button does not respond. It is not important for me, wether I deploy the CR-Runtime on the target-servers with the CRRedist2005_X64.msi or with a own setup-project. Because there are only six servers must be deployed.
Any ideas? Thank you in advance
Rolf

The CRRedist2005_x64.msi with Date 10/24/2007 is good. So we need to look for other issues. Are you using the ActiveX print control? If you are then the control must be downloaded from teh SAP website. There should be a directive for that in the web.config (assuming this is a web app). What you may need to do is documented at the below link:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms225384(VS.80).aspx
The print control cab file is here:
http://support.businessobjects.com/CRforVS2005/PrintControl.cab
Also, see if kbse #[1356727|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_dev/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes.do] will help here.

E-commerce with CRM or R/3 back end ?

hi all,
we are going to implement E-commerce and create a web shop with a SAP back-end.
We are in doubt whether to use CRM or R/3 as back-end system. Does anyone have experience with pros and cons ?
We already use both CRM (4.0) and R/3 today.
looking forward to hear from you,
best regards
Annette

Hello Annette,
Please see for yourself the gap list between ISA R/3 and CRM-ISA in these consulting SAP Notes.
[Note 609722 - Gap list Internet Sales R/3 Edition 3.1|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/609722]
[Note 638786 - Gap list Internet Sales (R/3 Edition) 4.0|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/638786]
[Note 897680 - Gap list SAP E-Commerce for mySAP ERP (5.0)|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/897680]
The notes provide a progression of gaps cleared in the ISA for R/3 (E-Commerce ERP) version.
While the list gives you a gap of features in the browser UI, you must also make a list of what R/3 Sales can do that CRM Sales cannot do. The CRM-ISA sales process is solely dependent on the CRM Sales process and its limitations. The list is beyond the scope of this thread. Anyway, since you already have CRM and R/3, you know the differences.
If you are planning to go big on the full features of the E-Commerce application - including self service, marketing, then, plan for CRM-ISA.
The major investment of effort has to be planned for (1) middleware integration - which you already have and (2) IPC - I am not sure if you already have done work on this piece. If you have done so already, then, you better go for CRM-ISA. Gives you a better user experience.
If you are looking for low hanging fruits and quick ROI - say B2B scenario, order status, do it with R/3.

How do I add a print button in the 'Additional tools and Features'? My print button has disappered.

After the recent upgrade my print button disappeared from the Menu Bar. I tried to customize the menu bar by adding back the print button but the button does not appear in the list of 'Additional Tools and Features' in the left hand window. I cant locate the print button anywhere.

Move your mouse to the top of the Firefox window, then right click.
You will see a menu of the available toolbars. Select '''''Customize'''''.
In the new window, look for the icon. When you find if, hold down
the left button on it, and move it to where you want it to be.
You can move any of the icons you want from here, but some
icons are locked in place.

How To: Disable the Print button until Required Fields are filled out

I have a PDF Form that I have created using LiveCycle Designer 8. On my PDF Form, I have a bunch of fields that are required. Is it possible to disable the Printer button until the user fills out all the required fields? We don't want a user being able to print out an incompleted form.

It's not possible.
However, you can create buttons on your document that "help" the user print
just a part of the document: a certain page range, just the current page,
etc.

Print button issues.

Hello everyone,
In order to 'flatten' our pdf forms so that they cannot easily be modified, we have decided to print all of our completed forms to a virtual .pdf writer. Now, we could have all of our users click file-->print-->select 'cutePDF Writer' from the printer drop-down-->hit OK-->Type in a file name for the new .PDF-->hit OK... but I was hoping that I could make their lives easier by adding a button to do most of this for them.
After scowering the depths of the internet, I found this script that I've added to the click event of a button:
var objPrintParams = event.target.getPrintParams();
objPrintParams.interactive = objPrintParams.constants.interactionLevel.silent;
objPrintParams.printerName = "cutePDF Writer";
event.target.print(objPrintParams);
This effectively handles everything up to 'Type in a file name for the new .PDF' step... but there are some issues.
The first is that some of our users may not have cutePDF installed. As it is, the script doesn't throw an error if the printer does not exist. Without the printer installed, clicking the button seems to have no effect. Both pre- and post-print events fire as if the printing worked, even though it didn't. I would like to have a helpful message for the user, but I can't think of a way to check if it failed. If I could get a list of printers, I could check it before trying to print... but event.target.printerNames(); doesn't work, and that was the only thing that i could find to list printer names.
The second issue is that a message is displayed to inform the users the the document is trying to print. "This document is trying to print..." I get that this is a security measure, but the user is pressing a button called print, and having to click a second time may get annoying. Additionally, if they click no by accident, this response is stored until they restart reader... clicking the print button again does nothing.
Ultimately, I'd like to get rid of this message... but if I can't do that, I'd like for it to show each time that the user presses it, both for consistancy, and to allow them to change their minds without having to close out reader, losing all of the filled fields that they entered.
I know that this might be asking the impossible, but I would appreciate any help with this.
- Scott

In the designer, highlight the print button. On the Object palette locate the presence dropdown (near the bottom of the palette). Change the pressence to "Visible (Screen Only)".

Adobe form validation with Print button

Hi All,
I have an adobe form with field validation (javascript) already set up but I'm trying to add one more feature to the validation.
Let me explain my initial validation first: I have 18 required fields with their tooltip name having an '*' at the end. Any fields not filled in with this tooltip marker will show up on an alert message when the print button is selected.
There are two fields called IException and Amount that are required but an End User might have additional IExceptions and corresponding Amounts. Therefore I have created 5 textboxes for each but only the first IException and Amount are absolutely required (and I use a '*' within their tooltip). Now if an End User has an additional IExceptions ("IException2") and fills out this field, I need to make it mandatory that "Amount2" would also have to be filled in.
Here is my code: [code]
function validateFields()
var flg = 0
var n = this.numFields
var fArr = new Array();
for(var i = 0;i<n;i++)
var fn = this.getNthFieldName(i);
var f = this.getField(fn);
var tt = f.userName
if(tt.indexOf('*')!=-1 && f.value == f.defaultValue)
flg++;
fArr[fArr.length] = tt;
if(flg>0)
app.alert('There are '+flg+' fields that require a value\n\n'+ fArr,3)
var IException2 = document.getElementById('IException2').value;
var Amount2 = document.getElementById('Amount2').value;
if ((IException2.length >0) && (Amount2.length == 0))
app.alert('Amount is missing')
else
document.ExceptionForm1.print();
validateFields();
[/code]
Currently when one of the require fields is NOT filled in, i receive my first alert message. If all required fields are filled in my print button doesn't work. Also if all required fields are filled in and IException2 is also filled in but Amount2 is not, I don't receive my second Alert message. So my code works up to the "Var IException2 = document....." and I don't know what the issue is.
Thank you for your help in advance.

One more question, since I have 4 of these...I'm having trouble getting the button to do exactly what its suppose to based on what's filled in because i think i have my '{ }' messed up and or IF/ELSE statement is wrong...can you please take a look..
function validateFields()
var flg = 0
var n = this.numFields
var fArr = new Array();
for(var i = 0;i<n;i++)
var fn = this.getNthFieldName(i);
var f = this.getField(fn);
var tt = f.userName
if(tt.indexOf('*')!=-1 && f.value == f.defaultValue)
flg++;
fArr[fArr.length] = tt;
if(flg>0)
app.alert('There are '+flg+' fields that require a value\n\n'+ fArr,3)
var a = this.getField('IException2').value;
var b= this.getField('Amount2').value;
if ((a.length >0) && (b.length == 0))
app.alert('Since IException 2 is filled in, Amount 2 is also required')
var c = this.getField('IException3').value;
var d= this.getField('Amount3').value;
if ((c.length >0) && (d.length == 0))
app.alert('Since IException 3 is filled in, Amount 3 is also required')
var e = this.getField('IException4').value;
var f= this.getField('Amount4').value;
if ((e.length >0) && (f.length == 0))
app.alert('Since IException 4 is filled in, Amount 4 is also required')
var g = this.getField('IException5').value;
var h= this.getField('Amount5').value;
if ((g.length >0) && (h.length == 0))
app.alert('Since IException 5 is filled in, Amount 5 is also required')
else
this.print();
validateFields();

Print Button Derived From a Select List Is Not Working

Hello,
I followed the instructions "Creating a PDF Report from Derived Output Format" http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/apex/apex31nf/apex31rpt.htm#t2
Steps
In order to derive the output format, you need to create an item that contains the list of formats to select from. Perform the following steps:
1. Under Items, click the Create icon.
2. Click Select List.
3. Make sure Select List is selected for Select List Control Type and click Next.
4. Change the Name to P<#>OUTPUTLIST and click Next.
5. You need to specify the list of output types for the report and the bottom of the page. Select the Create or edit static List of Values
6. Enter the following values and click Apply.
Display Value Return Value
PDF PDF
Word RTF
Excel XLS
HTML HTM
XML XML
7. Select No for Display Null Option and Click Next.
8. Change the Label to Output Format and click Next.
9. Enter PDF for the Default and click Create Item.
10. Now that the list of output formats is created, you need to change the Output Format when the Print link is selected. Under Regions, select the Print link.
11. Under Printing, select Derive from Item for Output Format and select the item you just created P<#>OUTPUTLIST for Item and click Apply Changes.
12. Click Run Page.
13. When the report is displayed, select Excel from the list of Output Formats. Note: In Oracle Application Express 3.1, the XML format was added
14. At the bottom of the report, select the Print link.
15. A window appears asking you which program you want to open the Excel file with. Click OK (or Open depending on what browser you have) . Excel is open and the report is displayed. Close the Excel window.
16. You can also create a button to produce the report based on the output format rather than clicking the Print link at the bottom of the report. Click Edit Page.
17. Under Buttons, click the Create icon.
18. Accept the default and click Next
19. Select Create a button displayed among this region's items and click Next
20. Enter P<#>_Print for the Button Name, enter Print for the Label and Request and select HTML Button for Button Style. Then click Create Button
21. The region printing link contains the id of the region. Since you want to invoke the print from a button instead of the link you need to create a branch and specify the FLOW_XMLP_OUTPUT_R### parameter in the Request field for the Action so the application knows what to do when the Print button is pressed. Under Regions, select the Print link.
22. Ctrl-C the FLOW_XMLP_OUTPUT_R### section of the Print URL field. Since you are going to invoke the print from the button, you can remove the Print in the Label Link field and click Apply Changes.
23. Under Branches, select the Create icon.
24. Accept the default and click Next
25. Enter the current page for the Page and paste the FLOW_XMLP_OUTPUT_R### parameter that you copied into the Request field and click Next.
26. Select P<#>_PRINT for When Button Pressed and click Create Branch
27. Click Run Page
28. Select XML for the Output Format and click Print.
If I use the link at the bottom of the report region when I set the print options on the print tab of a report, it will print out in both pdf and rtf formats. I get an error with the Excel format. The print button isn't even working. When I select the button, nothing happens.
Any help is appreciated.

Hello Andy,
I ended up putting in a ticket with Metalink. It is a known bug it seems. This is what the rep said:
UPDATE
=======
These bugs are fixed in the next ApEx patch 3.1.2. Patch 3.1.2 is expected (tentatively) in 2 weeks at the
earliest.
The bug fixes for these bugs have been backported to 3.1.1 and the one-off patches (patch 7202883 & 7156139) can be downloaded from metalink. One-of
f patches do not undergo the normal full regression testing, as is done for the
full APEX 3.1.2 patch set.
Once 7202883 and 7156139 were applied, I was able to download in all formats.

Ideas for Adding a Quick Print Button to VA01 Overview Screen

Problem Statement:
Our users would like a "quick print" button on the VA01/VA02 application toolbar that immediately spools the Order Confirmation output to the printer. Our users want to print the output on demand, i.e., they do not want the output to automatically be printed when the order is created because a printout is not always needed. We already have condition records created with Dispatch Time set to 3 - Send with application own transaction. However, it takes 7 or more clicks to print the output on demand by navigating the menu (Extras > Output > Edit...Further Data...etc.) and changing the Dispatch Time to 4 - Send immediately when saving. This is a big ergonomic issue and a time killer.
Although the number of clicks to print are less when printing the output from the VA02 initial screen (via menu Sales document > Issue Output To), this is not acceptable when creating new orders. Really need an on-demand, quick print button on the VA01 screen. As an aside, we have a totally custom transaction for preparing sales order data (shopping cart-like way of finding materials and entering required data) that then calls VA01 and fills in all of the information. When saving in VA01, the user is returned to our Z-transaction so asking the user to subsequently run VA02 to print is not practical.
Current Output Determination:
We have custom output type ZBS0 (copy of BS0). Condition records for print medium are set to Dispatch Time = 3.
Questions:
1. Searching these forums, it appears custom code (extension or user exit?) can be written to call RSNAST00, or something similar, to automatically send output having a Dispatch Time = 3. Where can I find more information on exactly how to do this?
2. Do transactions VA01 and VA02 (Overview screens) have extensions that allow a print button to be added to the application toolbar? We would want to call the custom printing code from the button to send the output.
Any feedback on how others have solved this problem would be greatly appreciated.
Warm Regards,
Rob
P.S. Using GuiXT is not an option for us.

HI
We had similar issues with printing packing list and picking list by the warehouse people.
We created a new ztransaction with input fields of delivery number, output type, number of copies and a check box for repeat output(in case if the output was already printed).
You can also create a new Z-transaction with input fields of Sales order number(mandatory field), output type (Default it with value of ZBS0), number of copies (default it with 1) and a check box. On executing the transaction You can provide a message if the output was already printed so that the user can select the check box to repeat the output and execute. You can also print multiple SO by giving a range value if required.
If you do not want the user to enter the new ztransaction every time, try providing a menu path to the new z-transaction from the existing z-transaction which you are using for order entry.
Hope this helps you.
Thanks,
Arun.S
