Replication of CRM payment in SAP ISU

Hi Gurus,
I have a requirement where we need to accept the payment through CRM 7.0 and the same payment should update in SAP FICA through BAPI.
ISU has already implemented at client side now CRM is going to be implemented.
Currently client is updating payment through BDC with the transaction FP25(Cheque Lot)
What setting we require for the same?
Valuable thoughts will be appreciated..
Regards
Kumar

Hi Bill,
Thanks for the instant reply.I am totally agree with you that for posting a payment through CRM 7.0 is a standard functionality for card and other payment except cash and we are not substituting it with cash desk.
Here the requirement is like that the persons who are collecting the payment in the form of cash and cheque at receiving centers are not the employees of the client, they are outsource employees so we can't give them cash desk screen because of some reasons.
So what we think to create one own CRM payment screen and accept the payment from the same and through BAPI upload the same payment in SAP ISU by calling the program of FP25(Cheque Lot)
Please correct me if I am wrong.

Crm middleware : R/3-ISU to CRM Business agreements and Contract accounts

Hi Guys
We are Downloading BP data from R/3 ISU system to CRM system and I did the relevant customizations using setup and load guide, along with the BP data it is required to download Business agreements and contract accounts (BDOC buag_main) also for this download I don't have any idea about what customizations to do to download BUAG_MAIN does any one have the document which specifies the required custmizations for downloading Business partner agreements.

Thanks in advance
Warm regards

Hi Madhu,
Contract Account on ISU is Business Agreement on CRM. Please refer the following path to get the load guide for contract account.

Using SAP PI instead of CRM Middleware

Hi experts,
Is it recommend to use SAP PI instead of SAP CRM Middleware.
If yes how can I do that.
I have read in forum requests that it can be implemented by using iDOC instead of BDocs.
I need a technical guideline how data (eg. Business Partner Data) can be tranferred from CRM to other ERP System.
Thank you for help.
Greetings
Mario

Hi!
SAP PI itself is a middleware Product but very roboust and capable enough to integrate any system to any other system, either it is SAP or Non-SAP. And there are two ways to integrate other ERP System to SAP CRM using SAP PI.
1. SAP PI will receive the message from back end ERP system & convert it to the XML format. SAP CRM receives the message using the Middleware XIF adaptor and convert the incoming XML Messages in the BDocs and the BDocs upload the data in the SAP-CRM Data base.
2. SAP PI will receive the message from back end ERP system & convert it to the XML format. SAP CRM receives the message and using the Functional Module convert the data into the BDocs and the BDocs upload the data in the SAPCRM Data base. In thsi situation, you need an expert ABAP Consultant to write the accurate functional Module.
The data inside the SAP_CRM System always transported in the BDocs not in Idocs. It is the BDocs data containers which transport the data from CRM Middleware to CRM Database and CRM Database upto CRM Middleware.

Hello Ritvij,
Regarding middleware ,are you down loading plants? bacause down load object objects DNL_PLANT is obsolete.
Unusable middleware objects :
DNL_CUST_BASIS3
DNL_CUST_PROD0
DNL_CUST_PROD1
DNL_CUST_SRVMAS
and the master data objects

Sap ISU and CRM

We are implementing SAP ISU with Billing and Invoicing, next step would be the implementation of CRM for Utilities. In a part we are using the installation guide of Best Practices for Water Utilities, which presuppose the implementation of CRM. My question is the following: is it possible to do the implementation of billing and invoicing in ERP and afterwards move the billing and invoicing to CRM, without any big efforts?
Thanks in advance
Maja

Maja,
The IS-U billing engine sits in the SAP for Utilities system. Today, there is not such a thing in the CRM system you can use to do the same. Same it is for invoicing, bill print etc. not to speak of FI-CA. You can't even replicate these objects to CRM.
The Water Template is not referring to such a thing. It is only levelling he way to a replication the standard objects, such as, business partner, from the ERP system to the CRM system.
I hope this answers your question.
Kind regards,
Fritz

Trigger alert modeler CRM IC based on SAP ISU information

Hi experts,
My current client will start a trial with smart meters shortly. These meters will be registered in SAP ISU as devices with a specially reserved device type.
Device type is not replicated to CRM, but the call center wishes to receive an alert in IC alert modeler if a customer has a smart meter placed.
My questions:
- Is it possible to trigger an alert based on information in another system?
- If so, what would be the best approach (with rough indication of effort involved)?
- How can this custom made check be used within the alert modeler?
Alternatively, we could create a special marketing attribute for these customers, but standard SAP cannot use marketing attributes assigned to a Business Partner either. So the question how to integrate custom check within alert modeler remains relevant for this scenario as well.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards,
Jeroen

Davide,
Gui would continue to be there for back end stuff. Tables (SE11) you would still continue to display, maintain. Creation of function module (SE37), report programs (SE38), lots of basis adminstration stuff, batch job scheduling and such stuff would still be done though SAP GUI.
Though SAP is trying to move many things to UI - such instead of EEWB, most of the functionality can be achieved through new AET.
CRM_MKTPL --- not suported, it will give you error message 'SAP GUI transaction CRM_MKTPL is no longer supported; use CRM WebClient UI'
CRMD_PROF_CHAR - you can still open this in CRM 7.0
CRMD_ORDER - you can still open this in CRM 7.0
Mostly marketing related developments (including TPM) will be taken care of by Web UI as this is newly developed area with lots of enhancements coming up - and GUI use would be reduced day by day even for configurations going forward.
Important is - for almost everything that is done in older versions - there is something in CRM 7.0 that you can use to do that in a better way, so not to worry.
Best Luck!
Thanks,
Rohit

SAP ISU BP Contact - CRM Activity - CRM IC Interaction record

Hi All -
I have a cookbook which talks about migrating SAP ISU BP Contacts into CRM Activity.
Now, my question is if I do this, will this show up as a interaction record against the customer in the IC WebClient in CRM?
We are considering a design where billing supervisors will enter a BP Contact in ISU when customers directly call them about a bill. Later, if this customer calls the Cust Service Rep, we want this interaction to be visible to the CSR who will only use the CRM Webclient.
So, I guess indirectly my question is,
"Is a CRM Activity the same as an CRM WebClient Interaction record"?
or
"Is a CRM WebClient Interaction record a type of CRM Activity"?
Thanks in advance for taking your time to answer this.
Regards,
Pradhip.S

Hello Pradhip,
the CRM IC Interaction Record is technically a CRM Activity with a certain transaction type. You can configure the replication of IS-U Contacts that the created activity is shown in the Interaction Center as Interaction Record. So you will be able to see the IS-U Contacts created in ERP - for example within a Front Office Process - in CRM as replicated Interaction Records.
Kind regards,
Christian

Hardware Spec for SAP ISU 6 + CRM IDES 7

Hi,
What would be a recommended hardware spec required to run SAP ISU 6 + CRM IDES 7 with atmost 4-5 concurrent users?
I plan to implement it using CentOS & SAP MAXDB.
Thanks & Regards,
Sumith

Hi,
As the concurrent users seem to be less, you only need to ensure disk space (for an ERP and CRM IDES you would need atleast 600-700GB) along with appropriate page file size of approx 120-140GB.
As for CPU/RAM: a 2 CPU/8Cores (Intel/AMD 2.08GHz) with 32GB RAM should do well enough.
However, if you plan to do the setup for productive environment please use the SAP Quick Sizer tool.

Srikishan

Why SAP SRM material replication happens through CRM middleware?

Can some one help me to understand, Why SAP SRM material replication happens through CRM middleware? Is there any functional/Technical reason behind this design?

Dear Sridhar,
SRM releases later SRM 4.0 are working with the same middleware implementation,
there where no changes between the releases. The SRM middleware implementation
was decoupled from the CRM middleware development at that time.
(Middleware is based on the basis functionality of queued Remote Function Calls qRFC)

SAP CRM Middleware flow from R/3 to CRM

hi
I am new to CRM middleware I have some doubt about the replication from the R/3 to CRM.
I have some 4 basic questions Kindly help me out
1.in initial down lode how to know which object for which requirement? There is any list like these objects for this one?
2.when the initial download have to use and when the delta down lode have to use?
3.object creating is preferable option or not if yes in which condition we have to create the objects?
4.what is the difference between customizing objects and business objects? and when we have to use which object ?
wiht Regards,
prakesh..!

Hi Prakesh
Happy to hear that my answers were useful. Hope this new will solve your problem.
So let's reply to your new questions.
1) Yes it is the delta download. This means that you have already triggered the initial download. Now all changes or new creations are replicated into the CRM system. I do not suggest this approach. This is usually used when you have no other chance because this process is complex and very time consuming. I would suggest checking the BDoc before proceding with degugging the queue. Go to transaction code SMW01. Filter on time (when you made the change). You will find bdocwith a red or yellow traffic light. This means that data have been not processed in CRM system. You usually have an error message (just select the BDoc from the list and click the red button in the toolbar) attached to the BDoc that is explainatory of the error. Correct the error and reprocess the BDoc (there is a proper button).
2) To debug the queue go to transaction code SMQS and SMQR and deregistrate inbound and outbound queue in the CRM system. After you do this, apply the changes to the customer. You will find an inbound queue in transaction code SMQ2. Select the queue and click the last button in the header toolbar. You will process the flow in debug. Remember to register the queue when this is no more necessary otherwise you will have a mess in the system.
3) if you create new customer in CRM system, this are automatically replicated in the backend system basing on the scenario set. No additional tables are created. All the changes applied in the CRM system will be replicated in the backend with the same process except the Bdoc that are really CRM specific.
Hope this help you.

Fabrizio
