Create New Info Block in ECC for CRM Customer Fact Sheet

Question

Hi,
we have a requirement to add a new info block in Customer Fact Sheet to display Equipment master from ECC. the info block required somehow is not listed in standard ECC info block.
is there any way i can configure the info block in ECC so i can call it from CRM? or do i need to develop it using ABAP in ECC?
thanks in advance

Answer 1

What I really really need is an example of how a new Assignment block can be created so that it appears in the PDF fact sheet.
I'm aware that the interface within the Smartform will need to be changed, along with the coding to process any new data being parsed in. The copied class, now called ZCL_UIU_PRN_ACCOUNT has a method called Collect_data which populates the itabs and forwards to the appropriate Smartform. I'm currently looking through this code to see what needs to be done.
The collect_data method loops through the data in the CRMT_BSP_PRINT table and retrieves the data structure and class, and I assume it calls them, but I have no idea what these classes have in common as I can't see common theme with them.
The data sources are:
CRMT_BSP_ACTIVITY2_BP
COMT_BSP_BP_ADDRESS
CRMT_BSP_CONTACT_OBJ_BP
CRMT_BSP_INT_HISTORY_BP
CRMT_BSP_OPPORTUNITY_BP
CRMT_BSP_ACC_R3_FACT_SHEET
CRMT_BSP_ACC_RELATION
CRMT_BSP_SALES_AREA_BP
and their associated class/interface is:
CL_BSP_ACC_ACCMOD_ACTIVITY
CL_BSP_BP_ACCMOD_ADDR_MIX
CL_BSP_ACC_ACCMOD_CONTACT
CL_BSP_ACC_ACCMOD_INT_HISTORY
CL_BSP_ACC_ACCMOD_OPPORTUNITY
CL_BSP_ACC_ACCMOD_PRN_R3DATA
CL_BSP_ACC_ACCMOD_RELATIONS
CL_BSP_ACC_ACCMOD_SALES_AREA
It would look like a lot of these classes are based on CL_BSP_*ACCMOD classes, but that's guesswork on my part.
I am unhappy that I seem to be pioneering here as there's no guide/help on exactly what needs to be done to add new AB's/sections to the PDF fact sheet. I find that strange as most areas are well documented, except this area as far as I know.
Sure, there is a note which identifies some of the objects that need to be changed, but misses out a vital table, but there are no guides. There are many people who produce videos on how to achieve the easier stuff, like adding fields to AB's via the UI configurator, but there seems to nothing in the area of extending the PDF fact sheet.
