Create Material in CRM and also in ECC

Hello,
We have a non-SAP system (that is not being retired) where pre-production material numbers are generated for opportunity work.
(They are not initially ECC)
We are migrating our current opportunity system into CRM, and approach is the non-SAP system will start to send the pre-production materials into CRM (as products). To support opportunity creation.
However, when the materials do go into production, we then will set up the material numbers in ECC to support quotes/orders.
The material numer will be the same as when it was just pre-production status.
However, we are concerned with middleware replication...
What happens if we directly create a product in CRM, and then xx months later create the same product in ECC.
what happens when that material number tries to replicate to CRM and the number already exists?
Thanks
Chris

Hi Chris,
If you create the materials directly in CRM and then the materials with the same id in ECC, the products won't be in sync in the two systems and the transfers will start giving errors stating that the Product ID already exists and nothing will happen. Neither a new product will be created in CRM from ECC nor will it update the already existing once in CRM.
The reason being that the product created in CRM will be of the logical system identifier : CRM but when they will flow from ECC, they will be of the logical system identifier : ECC, hence the two won't link up.

I created an iCloud account and also had to get more space after I have done the purchase, I am unable to backup my phone! I have a stable wifi connection at home and all I see for hours and hours is "Backing Up .. Estimating time remaining"!!!!! Plz help

I created an iCloud account and also had to get more space so after I have made the purchase, I am unable to backup my phone! I have a stable wifi connection at home and all I see for hours and hours is "Backing Up .. Estimating time remaining"!!!!! Plz help I'm unable to make the backup as I need to transfer all my data on my new iPhone 5S

This may be caused by a corrupt existing backup that needs to be deleted, or by data on your device that is causing the backup to fail. To troubleshoot these, try deleting your last iCloud backup (if you have one) by turning off iCloud Backup in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, then tap Manage Storage, tap your device under Backups, then tap Delete Backup. Then go back and turn iCloud Backup back on and try backing up again.
If it still won't back up, you may have an app or something in your camera roll that is causing the backup to fail. To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll) and try backing up again. If the backup is successful, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is causing the backup to fail and you'll have to located by process of elimination. Turn the camera roll On and try backing up again. If it succeeds, turn some of your apps to On and try backing up again. If it succeeds again, turn some more apps to On then try again; repeat this process until it fails. Eventually you'll be able to locate the problem app and exclude it from your backup.
In the meantime you can back up your phone to your computer by connect it, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Back Up. Also be sure to transfer your purchases (File>Devices>Transfer Purchases). Then set up your new phone and when given the option, choose Restore from iTunes Backup and follow the prompts to restore this backup to your new phone. This will be much faster than using iCloud anyway.

Creating consumers in CRM and R/3

Hi,
We are currently looking at mapping Consumers from CRM to R/3 and vice versa. We would like to be able to create consumers in CRM which replicate into R/3 and also create consumers in R/3 which replicate to CRM. However we understand that in R/3 only one 'Consumer' account group can exist. As default in R/3 the consumer account group is 0170. Is it true that the R/3 account group 0170 is classed as a consumer because the 'Consumer' checkbox is ticked?
We thought the following would work but it doesn't so any tips would be great.
In R/3 we have created a new account group Z170 which is a copy of
account group 0170.
In R/3 transaction PIDE we have mapped the following:
CRM > R/3: Classification: E = Consumer:Person to the R/3 account group
0170.
R/3 > CRM: Mapped the account group Z170 to Classification E=
Consumer:Person with external number range assigned.
We then go into R/3 to create a new BP in transaction XD01, we seelct
the account group Z170 but we noticed the screen fields does not
say 'Person'. Also after creating this BP we check in CRM that it has
been replicated, it has been replicated but the BP has been created
with roles 'Sold to Party' etc and not maintained in role 'Consumer'.
We have mapped the R/3 account group Z170 to classification E so we
assume it will be replicated into CRM as a consumer.
Cheers

Hi,
The key thing is we would like to create Consumers:Person in CRM and in R/3 and these must be replicated back into R/3 and CRM respectively.
Has anyone ever had to create Consumers:Persons in CRM and R/3? if so any help would be much appreciated. We understand that only one consumer accountr group can exists in R/3 so we wanted to know how we could go about this issue. We would like an internal number range for both CRM and R/3 when creating consumers.
Thanks
Cheers

BP with role SP created in CRM not replicating to ECC

Hi,
I have setup CRM to ERP connectivity , I did initial load using R3AS and Object CUSTOMER_MAIN in CRM.
The customers are replicated from ERP to CRM, and also when I create a SOLD TO PARTY in ECC, it is getting replicated in CRM, but reverse is not working. ie. When I create a Business Partner (SOLD TO PARTY) in CRM it is not getting replicated in ERP.
In CRM the TCODE = SMQ2,SMQ1 is not showing me the no queues (Number of Queues Displayed: 0)
Similarly, In ERP, the TCODE = SMQ2,SMQ1 is not showing me the no queues (Number of Queues Displayed: 0)
Tcode : SMW01 has BDoc state confirmed ,green state
How do I fix this issue, When I create a Business Partner in CRM, where do I go and check to see why is that Business Partner not getting replicated to ERP, any help and direction would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Satish

Hello Satish,
BDoc in state F04 means that the BDOC was processed successfully + the R3 system was called. So I guess the receivers section in the GREEN Bdocs would ahve been populated.
You might need to debug the queues now. De-register the destination of ERP via transaction SMQS in CRM system and then check the SMQ1 entries in CRM system. You'd see some queues and then try to debug the flow and see if there's any exception (ST22) raised on the CRM or ERP box.

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:

If you dont get, then gimme your email id, i shall forward these docs to you.
Kindly reward with points in case helpful

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

Error while creating material thru MM01

when i try to create material with accounting and costing views , i am not able to save the material
i get an error message saying
" no cost estimate number could be assigned"
the explanation in help for this is
"If you create accounting data or costing data for a material for the first time, a so-called cost estimate number for the material is assigned by the system.
However, no such number could be assigned for this material."
any ideas on solving this problem

Mangesh

Hi Mangesh,
Is the material you are dealing with related to REM?
Can you also type in the error message number.

Item catogories in CRM and R/3 ?

As you see when you compare both the systems -- the usage is not defined in CRM and also the assignment is not similar to what we have in R/3. will there be any issues because of this -- esp with the order flow and Material substitution.
Do we need to have the item catageroy usage difined in CRM that way it is in R/3.
please so any one have any suggestions on this.
thanks and regards
vasu..

Hi Vasu,
1. Item category usage is not an issue for order upload into R/3. Even if you don't define item category usage in the item category determination, still the order will get uploaded into R/3 unless it is mandatory in R/3
2. But same item category mapping should exists in both the systems. i.e. the item category determination entries of R/3 should match with CRM. other wise you may hit order upload issues
Reward if helps,

Re: create material cost estimate with ck11n without

hi gurus,
i need to do create material cost estimate with ck11n without cost result but before i need to check the BOM with material component 11111, and also instruct me how to correct maintain BOM list to get the standard cost

Hi,
As note 351835 explains, calculation needs an inforecord to calculate prices from purchasing. Prices from outline agreements are generally not taken into account. According to note 499699, the system may consider entries in the source but it will ignore entered agreements (before this correction, any source list entries with agreement were ignored).
Prices from agreements could only be considered either via a modification or by using the user exit for material valuation (COPCP005).
This unfortuntely is a restriction resulting as a side-effect from note 499699. As soon as an agreement is entered in the source list, the fixed indicator will not be considered anymore.
You therefore have two options to overcome this.
1) You create a second source list entry without an agreement; then the fix indicator will be reflected; report Z_CREATE_EORD from note 409960 could be used to do this automatically
2) You are using user-exit EXIT_SAPLMEQR_001 in order to 'overrule' the standard search for source of supply (enhancement LMEQR001)

How to create material group in material master.

hi guru's
can anybody explain me how to create a new material group in material master.
i wantto add a material group while creating material master MM01..
thanks
sap-mm

Hi,
In this step you create material groups.
You also have the option of using the same transaction to carry out the following activities:
Creating superior hierarchy levels
Assigning the superior hierarchy levels to a material group hierarchy
Assigning the base material group to the material group hierarchy
Assigning characteristics profiles below material group level
Requirements
Your R/3 System is configured as an SAP Retail System.
Activities
1. Create superior hierarchy levels
   You create hierarchy levels using transaction WG01 (creating
   material groups) via menu options MG environment --> Hierarchy
   level --> Create
2. Assign the superior hierarchy levels to a material group hierarchy
   You assign hierarchy levels to a hierarchy using transaction WG01
   (creating material groups) via menu options MG environment -->
   Hierarchy level --> Maint. MG hierarchy
3. Create material groups (base material groups) and then maintain the
   pre-defined materials (reference material/material group material)
4. Assign the base material group to the material group hierarchy
   You assign the material group to the hierarchy using transaction
   WG01 (creating material groups)
5. Assign characteristics profiles below material group level
   You assign characteristics profiles using transaction WG01
   (creating material groups)
Further notes
When creating material groups and then maintaining the pre-defined materials (reference material/material group material) you should be aware of the following.
As these materials can be created automatically using a minimum of data, you should follow this procedure with a check and possibly further maintenance, especially of plant-specific data. The material group reference material should be defined in as much detail as possible so as to keep the workload to a minimum when you have to create more materials for this material group.
All hierarchy allocations involving a material group (base material group) and a higher or lower hierarchy level can be carried out on the initial screen (there is no need to switch to the detail screen). All further hierarchy allocations can be defined top-down when you maintain material group hierarchies.
Only the material groups are transported automatically!
Reward if useful.

Loading transaction data to CRM and SAP/R3 from legacy system

Where can I find information about expected timing to load orders from a legacy system to CRM and SAP R/3? Does anyone know how long it would take to do the update in CRM using RFC's and BAPI's and then load to SAP/R3 if the order had an average of 3.2 line items per order and there were 50.7 million orders? It is assumed we would run multiple loads concurrently. So I guess a better question is how long does it normally take to load one order with 3.2 line items onto CRM and also SAP R/3?
Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi Qutubuddin,
Can you please let me know how you achieved moving data from non sap system to r3 using webdynpro java?

Time Capsule - Can it run as DHCP router, create a wireless network and plug into switch for wired network all at the same time?

I have a closet with Wired connections from all over the house terminating in it. I also have the internet modem and a switch in this closet. My old setup was a netgear in the closet creating a wireless network and also feeding the Ethernet ports all over the house. In my room, I had an Airport express (a month old) bridging the wifi to make the wifi network larger. The Express was hard wired from the wall and my mac mini was using it's wifi (printer was plugged into other ethernet port). Everything was working great.
Fast forward to last week. My Netgear died. So, I bought a time capsule. My plan was to move the Express to the closet and have it create the wifi network and also then run cat 5 cord from express to the switch to feed all the wired wall plugs. Reset it and set it up to create the wifi network as well as DCHP NAT. Wireless was running great on it. Then I plugged in the Cat 5 in the second Ethernet Port to the switch. Wifi stopped working and none of the computers would connect using wired connections either. They would see a 'network' but nothing would work. I would unplug the Cat 5 feeding the swtich and the wireless would start working again. Plug the Cat 5 back in and wireless would stop.
So I thought I would try the Time Capsule in the closet and see if I could get it to work. Pretty much the same thing, except at this point I figured out if I went in and told it NOT to create a wifi network the wired portion worked fine and all the wired computers in the house worked fine. Of course, then I didn't have Wifi.
I'm not clueless when it comes to networking, but I can NOT figure this out! Can either the Time Capsule or Express Create the wifi network AND also feed the data to the switch for all the wired computers?
To simplify this is what I want my end result to be. I prefer the Time Capsule to be the wireless connection extender, but if I have to have the Express do it, I'm fine with that.
1. Express in the closet creating the wifi network as well as feeding the data to the wired connections via my switch.
2. have the Time capsule in my room at the opposite end of the house plugged into the hard wired connection to extend the wrieless network as well as have wired connections such as my printer and my Mac Mini.
If I can get #1 to work, I don't think I'll have any problems with #2. Help!

I have an equally complex setup with a managed switch actually but I have never seen the TC have this kind of issue.
What I do notice is you have changed the TC from defaults.. you are using a non-default IP range.
I have run across issues like this where people move things from default.
I would like you to start over.. factory reset the TC. That will set it back to default router mode.
Do the min setup on the TC..
1. Change all names from what you were using. That includes the TC name and wireless name/s
Make them short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric because that is the correct way to network. Apple default names with spaces and apostrophes are fundamentally bad.
2. With just the TC plugged into the switch.. and a single computer connected by ethernet. Power cycle the whole network.. this allows the switch to clear all the old MAC address.
3. Test on the computer just ethernet. Turn the wireless off.
The computer must use dhcp and must get an ip from the TC.
It has to get the correct Router.. ie Gateway.. I wish apple could stick with proper network terminology.
And it must get same address or valid DNS server address/es.
If it fails.. please plug ethernet directly to the TC.. bypassing the switch.
You should get the standard IP addressing and internet connection.
If not please post the screenshot from the Mac of the network preferences showing the ethernet setup.
I need to see what address it does get. I need you to make sure the ethernet is the TOP of the list. So rearrange the order of network connection. With the airport off it should just go to the top of the list.
If it appears to be working .. but a browser cannot connect, open a terminal and ping an internet address.
Ping the actual gateway address the ISP gives you and ping the ISP dns address.
