Communication between CRM and ERP for E-commerce scenario

Question more on lines of system architecture design.
We are planning to implement CRM E-commerce and wanted to find out more detail about the communication between CRM and ERP systems. Do they need to communicate in real time for this application, or is it mainly initial and delta loads? Is the amount of data exchanged huge ( necessitating both systems to be on the same network, or can they be on separate geographical locations )?
We also understand that E-commerce can also be done only using ERP. How does that differ from the CRM version?

Hey Sanket,
Q 1 . Do CRM and ECC need to communicate in real time for Ecommerce application, or is it mainly initial and delta loads
Ans. CRM and ECC communicate using RFC connections which further uses TCP/IP as the protocol.The communication can be both real time { delta loads} or offline {initial download}.
Q2 .Is the amount of data exchanged huge ( necessitating both systems to be on the same network, or can they be on separate geographical locations )?
Ans. The amount of data can be huge hence its preferable that both systems to be on the same network.
Q 3. We also understand that E-commerce can also be done only using ERP. How does that differ from the CRM version
Ans.Theres no difference functionally but technically the application connects to the ECC system using JCO to execute all the RFC enabled function modules.
Warm Regards,
Sumit

Link Table between CRM and ERP

Hi Experts,
Does anyone knows the link table between CRM and ERP for Contact Person (Buss Part) CRM and Contact Person ERP.
In my customer system, contacts are automatically duplicated in CRM.
When you make a change in ERP, this change is automatically done in CRM.
So I suppose that there is a table between the both systems to find the corresponding number...
Thank you for your help and hope my English is good enough to understand :o)
Best regards,
Luis.

Hi Micky,
Thanks for your answer.
Unfortunatelly, number are differents...
I move this question to CRM forum ;o)
Kr,
Luis.

Basic question regarding Contract data exchange between CRM and ERP

Hi,
1) At a very general level, can somebody tell me via what technology are contract documents exchanged between CRM and ERP? IDocs, RFC modules or proxies?
2) Is it possible to sychronise changes in a contract, e.g. if the contract is changes in the ERP system, those changes are auotomatically updated in the CRM contract?
3) Can somebody point me to any documentation on this?
Kind Regards,
Tony.

contracts are exchanged between CRM ans ERP ssytem ny RFC and FM , you use object SALESCONTRACT for this,it is possible to synchronize changes between both the systems

Steps involved in setting up communication between CRM and R3 / ECC

Hi all,
Can you please tell what are the steps involved in setting up communication between CRM and R3 or ECC.
I know that initially logical systems, RFC connections and other technical settings need to be done by Basis consultants.
From a functional consultants viewpoint, what all config settings need to be done so that data transfer between the systems can take place?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
There are a series of steps that are to be done...
These include creating sites and subscription in CRM, setting up filters, and number ranges....
All these are in the connectivity guide C71 and replication guide B09.
Refer C71 first and then B09. These would suffice.
You can get these both in the follwoing reference:
http://help.sap.com/bp_crmv340/CRM_DE/index.htm
If you dont get, then gimme your email id, i shall forward these docs to you.
Kindly reward with points in case helpful

Standard-interfaces between crm and sap for insurance

Hello,
are there existing documentations to connect crm and sap for insurance components (policy management, claims managment, fs-cd)?

20,000 is on quite higher side for IDOC.
IBIP help doc says it needs 2 Kbyte for each record, i.e. 40 Mb for 20,000 rec. that should be ok. Since it has structures for Partner & classification data , I don't think u need to modify the BAPI.

Transaction IE02 - Change equipment

Different pricing procedure between CRM and ERP

Hello,
we`re using a CRM system which is connected to a ERP system. As not all pricing conditions from ERP are needed in CRM (an in addition the ERP pricing procedure is very complex), we would like to use a different (with less conditions) pricing procedure ind CRM.
But now, when we transfer an order from CRM to ERP, the pricing procedure from ERP gets downloaded into the order in CRM and the prices are lost. Therefore I have 2 questions:
1. Is it not possible to have a different pricing procedure in CRM than in ERP?
2. Is it possible to stop transferring the pricing procedure from ERP back to CRM when transferring orders?
Thank you in acvance for your help
Jan

Hi, Jan.
1. Is it not possible to have a different pricing procedure in CRM than in ERP?
Yes. You can use different pricing procedure for you business documents.
We use this for quotation management with inergation CRM-ERP.
But, You must use same Condition Types and other objects.

Bp master data match between crm and erp

hi gurus,
is there a match list indicating the customer master fields in erp and in crm.
which field can be synchronized to crm? which field is the target one?
can gurus help provide? thank you.

Hi Daniel,
I am not sure if there is a list for that. But, the mandatory fields in R/3 should be same as the mandatory fields in CRM for the data transfer to be successful. You can set that up in transaction OVT0.

Hi,
Pls chk this relations-
EKBE-> EKKO->based on EBELN
EKKO -> EKPO based on EBELN
EKPO->EKET based on EBELN, EBELP
First try to get the Purchase order numbers into EKKO from EKBE based on this get their itmes from EKPO from this we can get the EKET values based on both documnet number and theier items.
To get the history of the PO(EBELN) check this select statement -
SELECT
     ebeln      "Purchasing Document Number
     ebelp      "Item Number of Purchasing Document
     gjahr      "Financial year

      INTO TABLE i_ekko
      FOR ALL ENTRIES IN i_ekbe
      WHERE ebeln = i_ekbe-ebeln.
endif.
SORT i_ekko BY ebeln.
if i_ekko[] is not intitial.
SELECT
            ebeln    "Purchasing Document Number

COMMUNICATION BETWEEN JAVASCRIPT AND JAVA APPLET: US$20 AWARD FOR SOLUTION!

COMMUNICATION BETWEEN JAVASCRIPT AND JAVA APPLET PROBLEM (Easy Filter Java Applet) -
US$20 TO ANYONE WHO CAN RESOLVE THE PROBLEM
To forum visitors:
I am prepared to pay a standard shareware fee of US$20 to a user who can resolve this technical problem.
If your advice resolves the problem, I'll forward the payment to your postal address (include your
address with your reply, and also your email address)
I am attempting to enable a HTML button (using Javascript's onClick command) to directly input a number into one of the parameter text boxes in the Easy Filter Java applet (ie, enter a new color value number in the text field of the standard Colors Multiplicator Filter interface).
The applet is Freeware and can be downloaded at: http://www.javazoom.net/applets/easyfilter10/EasyFilter10.html
(It is a very effective bitmap display and editing utility)
To achieve this, I am trying to access the part of the applet that defines and sets the textbox. The text box is defined in the .class file by accessing the parameter details in the genericfilter.txt file (accompanies the .class files). I need to access 'private String appletInitialize()' and then one of the 'textFieldParameters' which sets the textbox.
I understand the basic syntax for referencing the applet:
document.appletname.setString("An example"). However, accessing the text fields in this applet is more complex!!
Please can you recommend the correct Javascript syntax to achieve communication with the applet.
Thank you for your kind assistance.

Thank you!

Error during VM container communication between ABAP and JAVA

Hello,
While creation of SC, I am getting error "Error during VM container communication between ABAP and JAVA"
Based on earlier responses in this forum, I checked following activity.
1. T Code - BBP_CND_CHECK_CUST
Result - IPC Pricing is Active and IPC is now running in VMC
2. Run Report - RSVMCRT_HEALTH_CHECK
Result - The Java component is deactivated
3. As per OSS note 854170, Profile parameters were existed as below
a) vmcj/enable - on
b) vmcj/option/maxJavaHeap = 200M
So, How to get Java component activated?
Thanks,
Rahul Mandale

Thanks Markus,
For SM53, I am getting resulets as " Java is not active on this application server - Message no. SVMCRT011"
Can you suggest, what I need to do for it? I can't use SRM Shopping cart because of it. thanks in advance, Rahul

How does the integration between CRM and SD occur

How does the integration between CRM and SD occur? Is only via ALE and are there config steps in CRM to ensure the correct data mapping between CRM and SD?
So, if I create an order or quote in CRM how is it then created in SD? Or do they share the same data store.
thanks

Hi John,
Here is good documentation regarding Data Exchange for Sales Transactions: the CRM Enterprise and the ERP System are two different repositories, If you create the Sales Order in CRM then they will be replicated into SD (using CRM Middleware, BDoc's)
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm60/helpdata/en/52/2d0c38941e5666e10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm
Also you can check the best practice guide for CRM 2007 there you have plenty of information
http://help.sap.com/bp_crmv12007/CRM_DE/HTML/index.htm
Hope this help,
Regards,
Ramon

How to establish the connection between crm and r/3

Hi,
Sorry for posting this question in this forum, i did not find any CRM forums.My question is,How to establish the connection between CRM and R/3...in my office i installed standard alone CRM system,but it is not talking to R/3.
Could any one tell me where to find adapters and plugins for this.
Thanks in advance.
Ajey

Hello Ajey,
in the case you mean the connection between R/3 and SAP CRM you should read the Best Practice Guides:
B01: CRM Generation

Difference between CRM and R/3

can anyone clarify on these...
What is difference between CRM and R/3
Also about CRM sales order vs R/3 Sales order why we go crm in this case .

First, it is expedient to state that both SAP Business One and SAP R/3 are built on the concept of client/server architecture. So how do they differ? Let's first understand the relationship in a client server setup. A client server is a computer system design standard in which the client machines requests and gets back information from a distribution machine called the server.
SAP Business One as said earlier is based on client/server architecture, howbeit a "2 tier": strictly, clients and server. This technology is often referred to as a fat client. This is because all processing and business logic are carried out on the client.
SAP R/3 is based on a three tier client/server technology. Typically, it is made up of three functionally distinct layers namely: the user interface, business logic and database.
The user interface, which is otherwise known as the presentation server displays the interface for users' communication with the SAP system. It is often referred to as the SAP GUI. As a matter of fact, it is a program called sapgui.exe. The application server is where the business logic and data manipulation takes place. Data processing, SAP administration tasks and client request/feedback management are handled within the business layer. The database layer is synonymous to the database server and it typically acts as a data repository for tables and other database objects and structures.
Ideally, an R/3 system is composed of one database server, one or more application servers and one or more presentation servers. SAP Business One on the other hand is composed of a database server and one or more presentation servers.

Is in PI7.1 possible asynchronous communication between SOAP and ABAPProxy?

Hi,
when method execute_asynchronous has disapeared since XI/PI 7.1, is
there still way how to use ABAP proxy in asynchronous way?
We need to build asynchronous connection SOAP->PI->ABAP_Proxy.
In PI, both interfaces are defined as asynchronous (outbound for SOAP and
inbound for ABAP Proxy).
Despite of this fact, when message is sent, it is processed
synchronous way.
I have set breakpoint in my implementation of method for ABAP Proxy
message processing. When message is sent and breakpoint is reached,
whole connection stays open (between SOAP and PI and between PI and
ABAP Proxy) and waits for processing method (the breakpointed one) to
return. Only when processing method returns, is connection finelly
closed.
If i understand it correctly, this is synchronous behavior. In
asynchronous behavior, as i understand it, should be connection
between PI and ABAP Proxy of application server closed immediately
after message has been delivered. This mean before my processing
method is even called.
The same could be said about SOAP and PI communication. Connection
should be closed immediately after PI has received message. From
definition of asynchronous communication of PI is obvious, that PI
should receive message correctly and close connection to sender system
even when receiver is unreachable. It should deliver message later
when, receiver system is back on line. So why it keeps connection to
sender system open while it waits for receiver?
Why is this happening, when both interfaces are defined as
asynchronous? Could be the reason for this, if APPLICATION
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT is set on by default? If so, how can i change it
to SYSTEM ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, or disable it at all?
Or is this kind of asynchronous communication even possible since
XI/PI 7.1 ?
Processing of message we are sending can take some time, so we dont
want connection pending open while waiting for finish of
processing. Thats the reason why we have chose asynchronous model to
use.

Quote from How to Use the J2EE SOAP Adapter:
"If you select Best Effort, the Web service client will receive a response
message in the SOAP body. Otherwise, the Web service client will not receive a
response message if no error occurs."
"if no error occurs" - that is the problem. In either case he still
waits if some error occure or not. I dont want it. Once PI has
received message, I want the connection with sender to be closed. If
there will be error in communication between PI and reciever, I want
to see it only in PI log. That mean no notification to sender to be
send about that error.
Is that possible?
