Automatic replication of Configuration from R/3 (ECC) to CRM 2007

Hi all,
We would like to set up an automatic replication of configuration maintained in R/3, e.g. Customer group 1, Payment terms, Incoterms, etc.. in order to secure consistency between R/3 and CRM as well as reduce work load.
As I understand, Customer data (customer_main) is supported by SAP but how about Configuration entries?
Is it possible?
Is it standard?
What is the way forward?
Your input is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
//Anders

Errors in Pricing replication ECC to CRM 2007.

Hello,
When loading the price customizing from ECC to CRM I run into problems. I have loaded the object DNL_CUST_CNDALL.
When I check the application log in transaction SLG1 (Object COND_EXCHANGE, Subobject CUSTOMIZING), I see the following error messages:
Table PRCC_COND_PPD has been posted in the database with errors
Message no. CND_MAP155
Table PRCC_COND_PP has been posted in the database with errors
Message no. CND_MAP155
Table /SAPCND/CTLISTI has been posted in the database with errors
Message no. CND_MAP155
Table FGDC_COND_P has been posted in the database with errors
Message no. CND_MAP155
Table /SAPCND/T685 has been posted in the database with errors
Message no. CND_MAP155
Table PRCC_COND_CT has been posted in the database with errors
Message no. CND_MAP155
The following error message repeats for several hundred condition types:
Error converting field FIELD_TIMESTAMP into /SAPCND/T685 for condition type BI00.
Message no. CND_MAP181
I have reviewed OSS-notes relevant to these error messages and implemented:
- Note 905554 - Error in the initial download of DNL_CUST_CNDALL
I then loaded DNL_CUST_CNDALL again. This did not solve the issue.
I then checked:
- Note 314588 - Errors during correction of /SAPCND/T685-FIELD_TIMESTAMP
I ran report /SAPCND/RV12N001 for some of my condition tables, for example:
Application: CRM
Usage: PR
Table Number: CUS908
I then got the following error message:
Condition table CNCCRMPRCUS908 has a field with initial name
Message no. /SAPCND/GENERATOR040
I then checked:
- Note 514952 - Download of customer-specific tables
I followed the steps in the note, but with no result.
I can see that the entry in table /SAPCND/T681 for
KAPPL            CRM
KVEWE            PR
KOTABNR          CUS908
is incomplete.
Any help much appreciated.

Vendor Number Range Conflict SAP ECC and CRM 2007

I need to load SAP ECC Vendor data from SAP to CRM and have setup most of the configuration as required. However I have an issue, the vendor number range used currently in our SAP system is already in use in our CRM system and has been for some time (for Prospects and Contacts). What is the best approach to dealing with this issue...
My initial thought was to see if we could have two different numbers for the same vendor in ECC and SAP CRM
eg SAP Vendor "50000001" equates to CRM "VEN50000001"
Is such as approach supported? Can you point me to the documentation that shows how such an approach could be implemented. What approaches have others done to address similar issues?
Thanks in advance
Eddie
By the way we are on CRM 2007 sp4

Hi Eddie,
SAP Note 1044637 - Customize Vendor Numbers
Implement the code present in the attachment. You can
change it according to your own requirements. The example code
suffixes 'VEND' before the first six digits of the vendor
number before it is downloaded to CRM.
Thanks,

Automatic Replication of Vendors from SAP R/3 Backend System to SRM System

Hi All,
I am searching for any existing standard configuration in SRM V 4.0 System for replicating Vendors of selected Purchasing Organizations from SAP R/3 Backend System to SRM System.
I have checked in the SPRO settings of SRM System and found/could make out from the documentation avalable in help itself, that there is a standard configuration by which you can automatically replicate the Vendors created in SAP R/3 by activating the following in SPRO: By putting a tick mark against the Check Box existing against "Create New Vendors also" under Vendor Synchronization with Make Global Settings I hope.
If the above statement is correct, then I hope we have to schedule a job ,since the above configuration is based on a job based execution which should run at least once a day.
In that case,which would be the relevant job which has to be created WITH A VARIANT in order to filter the Purchasing Organizations desired for.
Please help me out since we have to implement this asap.And if the above solution is not at all feasible,then please do reply at the earliest.
Awaiting for your early reply .
Regards
Annette

Configurable products from ECC to CRM 2007

Hi ,
I understood from other posts that PME is now replaced by Product assignment block in the new Web GUI.
My question, is this applies to configurable products downloaded from ECC?, Any special settings needed?
I have a B2B scenario in Interaction center where in a sales order, diffrent variants of a product should be able to selected!
How does the pricing handled in this case? Can we still use ECC to maintain the pricing conditions?
Any info much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Praveen,
If you model your confid products in ECC, create variants in ECC, and download it to CRM, you really don't need PME.
For Product Variants you can specify the Basic Data 2 tab to specify the Config Material name and configure the variant. Download these to CRM along with your KB.
In CRM Sales Order, when you go to the configuration screen and configure the product, you have a tab on right hand side called as Product Variants. You can choose the appropiate variant from that column and replace the original config product with this one.
Regarding Pricing, you can have the Pricing Conditions maintaines in ECC and downloaded to CRM. In case you are using variant pricing you can even download variant conditions to CRM.

Kunal

Replication of 'Variant' data from R/3 (ECC) to CRM

Hi all,
We are trying to replicate entries in R/3 tables CAWN and CABN whith Class type '300' (Variant).
We have replicated (R3AS) the objects 'Class' and 'Attribute' but cannot find the information in CRM afterwards. The status is in SMW01 is green and the BDocs created contains the information requested.
In the mapping module in R3AC1 it looks like the information is stored internally only.
Are there any other Object that needs to be replicated in order to find the information in CRM?
In what CRM tables should the information be stored?
Thanks in advance!

Replication of Material Sales status (with user values) from ECC to CRM

Hi all,
I 'm trying to find out how to replicate the sales statuses of the material master data in ECC (in view "sales", field DChain spec. status, MKVE-VMSTA) to the Material SAles statuses in CRM.
The sales statuses in ECC have been maintained (via menu SPRO/logistics general/master data/basic settings/settings for key fields/DAta relevant to sales and distribution)) : new specific values have been added to the standard ones.
Then, this customizing has been replicated to CRM via the DNL_CUST_PROD3 repliction object ( table TVMS).
I have also created a user status profile with values in CRM with the same values, and assigned with the configurator the status profile to the screen, so the values are selectable in the sales status in CRM (in header).
But, now, how can i replicate the sales statuses of the ECC materials to either :
-the product status (header) in CRM, or
-the sales status (distribution chain specific) in the assignment block of the Distribution-chain specific data ?
Is a specific development needed?
there are some existing notes (623026, 428989, 495764), but not clear about what is possible in terms of replication of statuses
thanks a lot

It seems that there is no mapping between ECC and CRM sales area.
If u want to download customer from ECC for that u have to mention the customer sales area in to the filter and then u have to start down load from ECC.

POD flag set up automatically after BP replicated from CRM to ECC

Hi Experts,
we are working on CRM 5.0 and ECC 6 as backend system.
*Requirement :*We will create a BP record in CRM and the same will be replicated to ECC.For the BPs which is replicated to ECC from CRM , the "Relevant for POD "(Proof of Delivery) flag should set up automatically.
Note: we have done the following settings
1) Created a Reference Customer in ECC in which we have set up a flag "Relevant for POD ".
2) Initial download Reference BP from ECC to CRM by going to TCode:CRMC_BUPA_CONSUM in CRM.
3) Maintained relevant Sales Areas for the BP.
Question:
In CRM we dont have field called "Relevant for POD ".How can we populate the field "Relevant for POD " for the Business Partner that is Created in CRM and replicated to ECC?
For any helpful answer points will be awarded.
Thanks in advance,
-Rahul.
Edited by: rahul biji on Feb 12, 2008 6:21 PM

Hi,
did you find a solution to make this work ? We have the same problem with other fields that are only available in R/3. We are thinking of adding a FM to fill these fields in table COM_BUPA_CALL_FU. Did you find another way ?

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 of Customer from ECC to CRM --- Multiple A/c Groups

Hi Experts,
I am trying to replicate customer master data from ECC6.0 to CRM7.0 and vice versa. Replication is up and running right now for only one Account Group (GEN-Z created for business) in ECC.This A/C Group (GEN) is mapped to BP Classification "Customer" in PIDE.
Now, I want to replicate customers with 5 other A/c groups to CRM as well. In PIDE, I have maintained a total of 6 entries for a/c groups to classifications (ECC to CRM). All 6 A/c groups are mapped to "Customer" classification.
This "customer" classification generates customers in role "Sold-to-party". For STP role mandatory fields have been matched to GEN A/c Group.
My main issue is how do I make sure there is no mismatch of customer fields in ECC and CRM as All other a/c groups that have also been mapped to the same "Customer" classification in the same way as A/c Group GEN. Problem would crop up because, there are diff set of fields kept mandatory for different a/c groups.
From CRM to ECC, I can select the relevant a/c group from "Classification" tab in role Sold-to-party.
But, there would be the same problem of mismatch of mandatory fields between Sold-to-party and all other a/c groups.
Is there a solution to this problem. How can I make sure replication works for multiple A/C Groups too.
Thanks and Regards
Varun Taneja

Hi Robert,
I read that in some other post too, it worked for someone. But here it is, I would like some advice from you...
Suppose, I have 2 A/c Groups... X and Y, both with different mandatory field settings in ECC.
Now, In BP field grouping on CRM side, I have made field settings(mandatory etc.) according to X A/C group. So when I select, X from classification tab during BP creation, replication would be successful.
And, if I select Y from classification tab, it would give an error "Fill in required mandatory fields" since fields have not been synchronized with Y. How can I take care of this issue.
Also, for ECC to CRM, how do I select multiple classifications, it doesn't allow for more than one entry for one classification.
I hope I am clear about my requirement.
Please share your feedback.
Thanks and Regards

Automatic replication of vendor masters from SAP R/3 to EBP

Hi
For this issue I found the below program and steps to do the automatic replication of vendor master from SAP R/3 to EBP
PROGRAM BBP_VENDOR_SYNC
The program BBP_VENDOR_SYNC automatically synchronizes the backend vendors with the SRM system.
To run the program BBP_VENDOR_SYNC, you first have to make the following settings:
Path in the Implementation Guide (IMG):
Supplier Relationship Management --> SRM Server -->Technical Basic Settings -->Settings for Vendor Synchronization --> Make Global Settings
Supplier Relationship Management --> SRM Server -->Technical Basic Settings -->Settings for Vendor Synchronization --> Define Settings for Each Backend System
Then you have to make the following settings in transaction SA38:
· Enter program BBP_VENDOR_SYNC.
· Click on the pushbutton Background.
· Enter the report name BBP_VENDOR_SYNC.
· Either define a new variant or use an existing variant ( The new Variant as Test Vendor)
· Click on the pushbutton Schedule.
· Enter the job.
· Define the start date.
· Either schedule once or schedule periodically. Then you have to define the period interval.
I followed the above mention steps and I am able to setup the Schedule on timely basis and the job was completed successfully, but the vendors are not replicated successfully .
I am receiving the below error in transaction code SLG1.
1.The Specified Node does not Exist in the Org. Plan(Message no. BBP_VENR006).
2.No Vendor Replicated from Backend MD1CLNT(Message no. BBP_VENR017).
Please check and advice.
Thanks & Regards
Sada

Hi Sadasivam,
Make Global Settings
Use
In Customizing for vendor synchronization, you define between which mySAP or ERP backend systems and the EBP System you wish to automatically synchronize the vendor master data. This setting is necessary in order to start a job-based execution of the synchronization, so that the vendor master data that is newly created or changed in the backend is updated regularly in the EBP System.
Requirements
You wish to use the automatic vendor synchronization functionality.
In the Implementation Guide (IMG) activity Define RFC Destinations, you have defined the RFC destinations for your systems.
Under Define Backend Systems, you have defined the backend systems for your systems.
Activities
Customizing for Vendor Synchronization consists of two parts. In the first part you make those settings that are valid for all backend systems. In the activity Make Settings for Each Backend System you can define or display detail data for the individual backend systems.
Make Global Settings
By setting the indicator Create New Vendors Also, you can determine that those vendors newly created in the backend systems are also newly created during the synchronization. If this indicator is not set, the only data updated is that of the vendors in the Enterprise Buyer System whose data was changed in the backend systems.
Note:
If you have not yet made an entry here, an empty screen appears when you start the activity. To make the settings, choose New entries or press F5.
Further Settings:
Carry Out Address Check for Duplicates :
Organizational Unit in EBP for the Vendor
Enter the eight-digit number, for example, 50001234.
Vendor Number Assignment Type
In the dropdown box, choose the method with which the number is to be allocated when a new vendor is created, for example, internal number allocation.
Hope this makes you more clear. My mail i.d is [email protected]

Automatic upload of roles from ECC to portal (UME with LDAP)

Hi experts,
This thread reopen the question asked on the following message : automatic upload of roles from BI to portal
However, it concerns this time "UME with LDAP".
Problematic :
SAP Library 04s tells us that is not yet possible to automate role replication (or role assigment replication) from ABAP Based back-end to Netweaver Portal. Only manual process for initial upload is possible.
Source = http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/41/5e4d40ecf00272e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
Questions :
1 - Did anyone ever try to implement such an automatic tool ?
2 - What if I'm not able to write on the Active Directory ? I am still able, at least, to automate role assignment replication from ABAP Based back-end to Netweaver Portal (ie. UME with LDAP) ? Directly from SAP R/3 to EP through UME, without passing through Active Directory since the group field is not maintained in AD.
Many thanks for your inputs
Alexis MARTIN

Hello,
As I did not read the previous thread I don't know what exactly you are trying to achieve, but I can tell you about what we have done - as far as it is not too late yet.
We use the portal with integration to a BI system. In the ABAP stack we have lots of roles with menu items for hundreds of reports. We want the users to see these roles in the portal.
First we have used the role migration tool of the portal to upload these roles. There is a Java API for executing role uploads from code. You need to create a webservice in the java stack to call this api, and can call the webservice from ABAP.
However it is just a question of time and role size until this will not work at all. Standard role migration is more or less crap, stability is a problem. It also creates a lot of logs in the PCD and thus fills the database with trash. (After a few OSS messages there is now a program for deleting logs + you can turn of logging.) Also upload of larger roles takes up to an hour, and you alwasy have the problem that your portal roles are not up to date during the day.
When I got completely fed up, I have implemented an own navigation connector. When you log on to the portal it will connect to the ABAP stack via RFC, load the role, and generate the portal menu from it. It uses caching, but on every logon it checks whether the role has been updated in ABAP since the last time it was loaded. It is up to date, faster then PCD navigation, and you need absoluetely no periodical synching at all. I cant even understand why this is not offered by SAP per standard!
Drawback is that it will of course only work for the menu items, and only menu items with an "URL-type" are supported. I'm prettry sure however that it would be possible to implement a few other types as well.
Let me know if you are interested in the solution, I can give you a few additional details: oliverDOTsvisztATwienerbergerDOTcom
