CRM 7 PDF Fact sheet question.

My understanding is that the PDF uses a smartform to create the PDF and there is config behind which identify the AB's to be used. However, am I right it saying that the PDF config can only use the AB's that are defined for standard Online Fact Sheet?.
So, if we have particular AB's that the PDF Fact needs to use but should not be displayed within the online fact sheet then we'll have to create them within the view, hide them so that they do not display when the Online Fact Sheet is displayed, but add these AB's into the configuration table for the PDF fact sheet, and of course modify the Samartscipt so that it knows what to do witrh this extra data for the new AB's.
Have I missed anything, or have I not got the right grasp on this?.

It is slightly different when making modifications to the PDF view because with the standard online Fact sheet you can easily add new fields using the UI config tools, and then just adjust the code to populate these fields, should they be new ones.
However, you don't have this option with the PDF fact sheet, so there's a difference straight away. My problem is that I need to add new AB's and new fields in both existing AB's and new AB's for both the PDF and online Fact Sheet, although I'm concentrating on the PDF fact sheet first. There seems to be a good many articles on adding new fields, which to be honest is childs play when using the UI configurator, but very few articles on the subject of adding new AB's and fields and then having them populated via ERP, which is no easy task, and is about 99% of what I need to achieve.
So, to start with, has anyone come across a easy guide to adding new AB's and fields for the PDF fact sheet, and possibly an easy method to populate it. I have found a WIKI guide, written by someone within SAP (I believe) but their HTML code in the example is not generated correctly so they have manually entered it, which seems like a bit of cheat to me, as it should work.

However, any other guides would be much appreciated as I'm sure anyone who reads this guide will find it hard to follow.

  • Create New Info Block in ECC for CRM Customer Fact Sheet

    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

    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.

  • Marketing Attributes and Communication info in pdf fact sheet.

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to get the communication details and marketing attributes in the pdf fact sheet.
    Smartform CRM_ACC_ACCOUNT_OVERVIEW_PRN has no coding for these info, although both informations are available in online version.
    There is a program CRM_MKTBP_ATTR_HISTORY availble to diplay attributes, but i have no clue how to bring the entire program in smartform. Can anyone help on this how to fetch these info in pdf?
    Regards,
    Neel

    Hi Neel,
       You can create a custom smart form for this . take the help of a ABAP programmer.
    You can use tables ADRC for communication details .
    For marketing attributes : you can use function module CRM_MKTBP_READ_BP_LIST giving the BP guid in table IT_BP_LIST. This will give you the attribute set along with the attributes and their values assigned to the BP.
    Example call:
    Test for function group CRM_MKTBP_DB
    Function module CRM_MKTBP_READ_BP_LIST
    Import parameters Value
    IV_LANGU EN
    Tables Value
    IT_BP_LIST 1 Entry
    Result: 1 Entry
    ET_BP_ALLOCLIST 1 Entry
    Result: 2 Entries
    ET_RETURN 0 Entries
    Result: 0 Entries
    One you get these values you can pass this to your smart form.
    Hope this helps

  • Account fact sheet, print version (PDF). Query regarding output blocks.

    I have looked at OSS Note 1066280 which explains exactly how to config the PDF fact sheet. However, on looking at the view or using the SPRO path I can see that there are currenty no settings in place at the moment. i.e. the view/SPRO is showing no data.
    However, when looking at the appropriate Smartform I can see blocks for:
    Opportunities
    Activities
    Interaction history
    Contact Person
    Relationship types
    Which all print out (display in PDF) okay, except there's also a Sales block in the Smartform which does not print. The logic/output conditions in the Smartform say PRINT_DATA-SALES_AREAS = 'X' and SALES_AREAS[] NE initial.  What controls whether this information prints, config-wise.
    Also, I need to add new blocks of data, which is probably going to be sourced from ERP, but config-wise can I control whether the PDF displays these newly created blocks in the same way as it does for the SAP standard?.

  • Fact Sheet generation - CL_CRM_GENIL_CONTAINER_OBJECT issue

    Hi Guys,
    We are utilizing functionality of an Activity Management to schedule appointments using Activity Scheduling and Standalone appointment creation as well. We did use automatic Fact Sheet attachments to the appointments.
    We introduced an ad hoc generation of PDF Fact sheet attachments into the appointments. We are testing our custom solution but we experienced one issue caused by SAP standard code.
    Let me summarize our settings first
    1.We turn off automatic FS generation in IMG CRM->Transactions->Settings for activities->Attach Fact Sheet to activities
    (Role)G:ZZ:CRM1:SLS_USER; (Trans.Type)Z100; (Short Descriptio)Visit; (Language)EN; (AttchAutom)blank; (AttachMan) flag
    2.We do use custom smartform ZCRM_FACTSHEET that is a copy of CRM_ACC_ACCOUNT_OVERVIEW_PRN
    3. We created new class ZCL_UIU_PRN_ACCOUNT as a copy of CL_UIU_PRN_ACCOUNT
    4. in View CRMV_PRN_CONTROL we have maintained following entries (Role)G:ZZ:CRM1:SLS_USER; (External Object Name)BuilHeader; (Form name) ZCRM_FACTSHEET; (Class/Interface)ZCL_UIU_PRN_ACCOUNT; (View) blank
    5. in cluster CRMVC_BUIL_PRT we have maintaned following Related objects ro (Role)G:ZZ:CRM1:SLS_USER and (Ext. Object Name) BuilHeader
    (External Object Name)BuilActivity-(Field name)ACTIVITIES; BuilAddress - ADDRESS_OVERVIEW; BuilContactPerson - CONTACTS; BuilInteractionHistory - HISTORY; BuilRelationship - RELATION_TYPES; BuilSalesArrangement - SALES_AREAS
    Our custom program ZFCRM_CREATE_FACT_SHEET is basically selecting relevant appointments; Reading information about main partner using FM CRM_PARTNER_READ_OW and calling FM CRM_UIU_BP_PRINT_BACKGROUND. All export parameter are properly filled in.
    This FM is basically calling our Z class ZCL_UIU_PRN_ACCOUNT based on above customizing. For simplification reasons imagine that ZCL_UIU_PRN_ACCOUNT is exact copy of standard SAP class CL_UIU_PRN_ACCOUNT where  CL_UIU_PRN_ACCOUNT is its superclass
    The issue is with the method COLLECT_DATA and section of the code
    lr_collection = lr_buil_entity->get_related_entities(
    iv_relation_name = <ls_model>-relation_name ).
    that returns data for internal tables lt_activities(open activities) and lt_history(closed activities). If we have scenario when we have 3 open and 8 closed activities:
    a. When I generate the Fact Sheet from an Account directly in Web UI CL_CRM_BOL_CORE->get_related_entities is returning 3 records for lt_activities(open activities) and 8 lt_history(closed activities).
    b. When I called it from our Z program the CL_CRM_BOL_CORE->get_related_entities is returning 11 records for lt_activities(open activities) and 11 lt_history(closed activities). It means mixed bag. And this is the issue.
    I did analyze the standard SAP code and the section containing below
    code is responsible for the mismatch
    try to read children
    if IV_RELATION_NAME is initial.
    if IV_OWNED_ONLY = ABAP_TRUE.
    LV_OBJ_LIST = IV_ENTITY->CONTAINER_PROXY-
    >IF_GENIL_CONTAINER_OBJECT~GET_OWNED_CHILDREN( IV_AS_COPY = TRUE ).
    else.
    LV_OBJ_LIST = IV_ENTITY->CONTAINER_PROXY-
    >IF_GENIL_CONTAINER_OBJECT~GET_CHILDREN( IV_AS_COPY = TRUE ).
    endif.
    elseif LV_MODE ne CL_CRM_BOL_ENTITY=>BYPASSING_BUFFER.
    get relation state
    >>this code>> LV_OBJ_LIST = IV_ENTITY->CONTAINER_PROXY-
    >IF_GENIL_CONTAINER_OBJECT~GET_RELATION( IV_RELATION_NAME =
    IV_RELATION_NAME
    IV_AS_COPY = TRUE ).
    read table IV_ENTITY->MY_MANAGER_ENTRY->RELATIONS with table key
    RELATION_NAME = IV_RELATION_NAME
    assigning
    <REL_STATE>.
    endif.
    CL_CRM_GENIL_CONTAINER_OBJLISTCP->CONSTRUCTOR
    data: LS_RELATION type GTYPE_RELATION,
    LV_PARENT type ref to CL_CRM_GENIL_CONTAINER_OBJECT,
    LV_ENTRY type ref to IF_GENIL_CONTAINER_OBJECT,
    LV_CHILD_PROXY type ref to CL_CRM_GENIL_CONTAINER_OBJECT.
    field-symbols: <REL> type CRMT_GENIL_CONT_RELAT
    >>this code>> read table IV_PARENT_DATA_REF->RELATIONS assigning <REL> with table key RELATION_NAME = IS_FILTER-RELATION_NAME.
    Table IV_PARENT_DATA_REF->RELATIONS is not filled for scenario b. at all. It is filled for scenario a. For our scenario b. it is missing relationships and that's the reason why we got mixed activities in BuilActivityRel and BuilHistoryRel..
    Did you come across similar bug or do you know which note could potentially resolve this issue?
    Thank you in advance.
    -Milan

    You might have to put breakpoint in function module CRM_UIU_BP_PRINT_BACKGROUND
    Check the values in parameter - IT_BOL_RELATION
    Also check values returned from querying table crmc_prn_contr2 (its at line 76 in our system).

  • How to pass variable between CRM Fact sheet and BI web template

    Hello,
    I am looking for someone who has integrated a custom web template with the CRM fact sheet (I am on 2004s).
    I have created a custom web application design template for displaying on the portal for a CRM factsheet (TPL_FACT_SHEET).
    This template is based on a query which has a variable (CHOOSE_CUST, ready for input, input: optional type) on 0CUSTOMER char.
    When the sales rep queries the CRM FactSheet on the portal- based on the 0CUSTOMER he is demanding the fact sheet for,  the appropriate 0CUSTOMER value needs to be parsed to my custom web template and it should return him the report. The report is very simple with just sales for current and previous year by material group. There is a std template to do this but we are using cutom data providers and hence need to create this custom web template.
    Thus far I have created a 'filter pane' in my web template but do not know how to link this with the CRM fact sheet or even how to link it to my query variable. Currently when my template is called from the factsheet (portal) it displays results for multiple customers without any filter!
    Please advise how to proceed in linking the CRM fact sheet 0Customer number with my web template filter pane!
    Full points for useful answers!

  • CRM 5.0 BP - Account Fact Sheet session pass to R/3 transaction iView

    Hi,
    In component BSP_DLC_FS and View factsheetyou can select the page type and once the Layout type is chosen, you can select your Fact sheet views from available Fact Sheet Views and there you can assign your views.I think you must have activated the fact sheet button for your PFCG Role.
    I went to Component BSP_DLC_FS and clicked on display.
    Went to views and selected BSP_DLC_FS/factsheet. Where exactly do I select the page types and layouts and my factsheet views? Still fairly new to the the BSP_WD_CMPWB  so please excuse

    JD

    Hello Jushan,
    while debugging in business partner I saw some stuff about the CFS.
    Have a look at method CL_BP_HEAD_BPHEADOVERVIEW_IMPL->IF_BSP_WD_TOOLBAR_CALLBACK~GET_BUTTONS()
    In it do a search for "--- Factsheet". This will point you to the weired code I stumbled upon.
    Do not know if it will help you. Maybe you can just assign yourself this User parameter or debug around it. By the way, it will show the button for CFS in the business partner overview page. Never tried to click on it though.
