Changing Marketing Attribute Length from 2 to 3 places

Hi
In our project we are using certain marketing Attribute. Now requirement is to change their length from 2 char to 3 char.
Now these attributes have already been used in Attribute set and assigned to BP..Please tell me how can I resolve this issue.
Thanx & Regards
Hits

The correct way is:
1. Do a separate selection / target group for each of the values and save that
2. Delete the assignment of the attribute using CRMD_MKT_TOOLS reports
3. Delete the attribute from the attribute set
4. Create a new attribute with length 3
5. With CRMD_MKT_TOOLS (appropriate report there) you set the value for each target group again.
However, you can still go and directly update the appropriate content of the tables cabn (definition of the attribute), cawn (attribute values) and ausp (assignment to the business partner) directly with an own report - if you want to.
Be aware that the second solution definitely does not work with mobile sales, and if you have the set assigned to more than 400 BP's the first solution does not work directly either. There is note 772711 describing a report helping you out there, but this report is not compatible with mobile sales either, you need to write a oss message on this to get the correct code modification (hopefullly they will put it into standard somewhere in future).

  • Changing Marketing attribute in BP Master

    Hello
    Can anybody tell me if we can change marketing attribute already maintained in BP Master details.
    Is it possible to go for mass change of a particular attribute like through loading an excel file having list of all BPs.
    I cannot do it by creating Target group as it will list all the BPs with that particular Attribute i want to change.
    I need to do it for around 500 BP master( not all BPs having that attribute)  so cannot manually change it.

    Hi ,
    You can also get this done by using ELM by mapping the fields in excel file to the fields of the BP.
    Create a mapping format using Tcode : CRMD_MKTLIST_MAP
    Upload the file using the T Code : CRMD_MKTLIST
    If you have any futher help let me know.

    Hello together,
    I would like to describe my own problem with updating Marketing Attributes in a Business Partner via a CRM Survey.
    Currently I am working with SAP CRM 7.0 EHP1. The Survey is maintained in SAP Survey Suite in the Application "Marketing".
    Furthermore I am using the following function modules:
    Callback to PBO CRM_MKTBP_SVY_ATTRIBUTE_PBO
    Callback to PAI CRM_MKTBP_SVY_ATTRIBUTE_PAI
    The Marketing Attributes should be updated within a Contact. This contact have assigned the role "Internet User". Behind this role I have defined my CRM User name.
    For testing the Attribute update I have generated an URL with BSP. Afterwards I opened this URL and logged in with my CRM User name. After filling in the survey and submitting no business partner were updated. It seems that the "conversion" from my CRM User to the CRM contact doesn't work. I think there could be a problem with the PBO and PAI modules. Because the functionality "Evaluation" within the Survey Suite shows a number of evaluated questionnaires and answers after submitting my survey.
    So my questions:
    Are the mentioned PBO and PAI modules up to date? (Last change date was in 2005)
    Is the Application "Marketing" within the SAP Survey Suite the correct one?
    I would be glad if anyone could give me tip for my problem. Thanks a lot and best regards,
    Oliver

  • Adding other languages in Marketing attributes

    Hi all,
    Im currently working with marketing attributes and would like to add different languages in the attribute. I guess that you add different languages in the description tab in transaction CRMM_ROUT_PROF_CHAR?
    But it doesnt seem to work on attributes that are in use? I can only add to attributes that are not in use. When I try to change one that are in use I get this message:
    "Attribute SAP_0000000190 already valuated within a profile"
    Does anyone know anything about this, and how to solve the solution about using different languages depending on what language you chose when you log in to WEB UI?
    Thanks!
    Margareta

    Hi,
    I believe the reason could be that the attribute set to which this
    attribute is associated is assigned to more than 100 BP's.
    This is been mentioned in note 772711.
    Also kindly use the WEBUI Marketing Attribute screen (from CRM 6.0 onwards).

  • Reg: CRM Marketing attributes for CRM 7.0

    Hi Gurus,
    We are using function module CRM_MKTBP_CHANGE_BP to change marketing attributes for a business partner in which the marketing attributes are coming from another interface.
    We get the marketing attributes created all the time, but the problem is when theres is a change in marketing attributes, these changes are also reflected, but the changed by and time stamp is not changed, though we pass it explicitly via the internal table IT_IMP_SELTAB when passing the fields CHANGED_AT and CHANGED_BY.
    Requesting if anyone knows another FM or BAPI or OSS noted available for this as this particular FM is not released yet too.

    Hi ,
    Check that the Flag Run in the table CRM_MKTBP_CHECK for function module CRM_MKTBP_UPDATE_AUSP_EX_DB is set to X. This is for recording the history for any changes in the attributes. If not then set this flag to X. After that just change the value of one of the attributes and check the 'CHANGED AT' and 'CHANGED BY' fields for that attibute.
    Hope this helps.

  • Mass creation of Marketing attributes under attribute set

    Hi All,
    Please let me know if there is a possibility for mass creation of Marketing attributes and marketing attribute sets in SAP CRM Standard functionality.
    I am not talking about below " creation & assignment to BPs using the expert tools. "
    CRMD_PROF_CHAR  Create/Change Marketing attribute/set
    CRMD_MKTDS           Create datasource/attributre list
    Create marketing attribute and maintain in Business Partner.
    CRMD_MKT_TOOLS  you can use this to delete/assign mass marketing attributes to BP.
    we can go for a BDC program, But I want to keep that as a last option.
    Please help and suggest me if there is any standard way of creating or uploading the Mass Marketings attributes in CRM system.

  • How to add log details for marketing attributes

    Hi,
    when user is changing marketing attributes in bp transaction we need to show the log details in log file.how to capture the change log details in to log file ? is there any way to show change log files.
    rose

    Hi,
    You can view the change log using the report program:CRM_MKT_TOOLS or T-cd:CRMD_MKT_TOOLS. Choose 'History of attribute Evaluation for Business Partners'.
    You can manipulate this report and get the necessary log.
    This BADI CACL_VAL_CHANGE will be called after any change to the marketing attribute.
    Here you can capture the log to your custom table / you can log the data to a file.
    Hope this helps.

  • Migration of Marketing Attributes from other system

    Hi,
    We want to migrate the Marketing Attributes from non-SAP CRM system into SAP CRM system.
    But the concern is if some of the customers have visited our website and changed some attributes, like hobbies or job position, the new attributes will be there in CRM system.
    The problem is in that case if we migrate the attributes from non SAP system, then will these migrated attributes overwrite the exisitng CRM attributes for the same BPs? If yes, what is the way out so that we don't lose the new attributes of the BPs and also migrate the attributes from another system into CRM.
    Regards
    Monica

    Hello Naren,
    Can't you use Legacy System Migration Workbench(LSMW) for your requirement?

  • Marketing Attributes - Change History

    Dear Experts,
    Is it possible to see changes to marketing attributes in the web UI?
    I have looked at the standard report CRM_MKTBP_ATTR_HISTORY - but changes are only shown in the GUI.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Best, Rikke

    Hi Harshit,
    Thank you for your reply. I will try your solution. Which Change doc. object do I use?
    I also found another solution - I created a transaction code for the program CRM_MKTBP_ATTR_HISTORY and were able to launch the program from the web UI in transaction launcher.

  • Transporting "Marketing Attributes" from Dev to Quality

    Hi Folks
    Can anyone tell me how can I transport my marketing attributes from Development System to Quality to Production Environment ?
    I have my TRMS set up. But since Marketing Attributes don't get assigned to any TR I am finding it difficult to port them.
    Regards
    Vishal Mani

    Hi Gregor,
    CRMD_MKT_TOOLS works fine to move the Marketing Set/Attributes form one box to another box (eg: dev -> qty), as part of data migration - my ABAPer wrote the ABAP function to default the Marketing Attributes in dev. based on SAP number(s) generated in dev. (eg: S0000000129) but these number are not the same in another box (qty) as they are system generated. When we moved his code to qty. data migration is failed. My question is - what is the best approach or logic to deal with such situations

  • Updating marketing attributes from BW

    Hi anyone!
    We're using the Analysis Process Designer in BW for updating marketing attributes in CRM. We face two problems:
    1. When updating an attribute with several values (have set the multiple value indicator in the transaction maintain attributes) BW only updates one attribute value. The second value overwrites the first one.
    2. When using currency as data type for the attribute value we get an error in BW when we start the process of updating the marketing attributes.
    Have any of you faced the same issue???
    Regards Camilla

    One of the method is using APD, but here also i am new..can any one have tried??

  • Premiere Elements 4.0 - How do I change all the clips from 5 seconds to 2 seconds in length?

    Premiere Elements 4.0 - How do I change all the clips from 5 seconds to 2 seconds in length?

    Christine,
    The Duration of Stills is set with Edit>Preferences to the number of Frames required, where ~ 30 Frames = 01 sec. of Duration.
    Unfortunately, the Duration cannot be reset (Edit>Preferences) for material that has already been Imported. The procedure is to Delete those Imported Stills, and make the change, then re-Import them, and you will get the Duration that you have reset.
    The only other option at this point is to manually Click-drag on the Head, or Tail of each Still in the Timeline, to adjust the Duration. I do this with the Info Panel open and visible to make it easier. Personally, unless I am well into the editing process, the Delete, change and re-Import option is my choice.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    PS - the ability to alter the Duration en masse for Imported Stills in the Project Panel has just been added in PrPro CS5. I do not know if it has been added in PrE 9 though.
