CRM Mobile 7.0 vs NW Mobile 7.0 and Which DB on MobileDevice?

Hi All,
I want to develop mobile applications for my customer, however I dont know how I start.
At first, we use offline mobile devices and CRM applications. So I need to know the differences between CRMMobile and NWMobile7.0...For configuration of servers,prereqisites,development area and deployments...etc..
And for mobile client I need a DB ,for offline usage. SAP offers db2e for mobile client and MaxDB for laptops. MaxDB is free but not for mobile devices, db2e is ok but not free... can I use sqlCE or MinDB for this applications , both are free now I think . Or any other?
Could you help me on this topic.
How can I start and finish a simple program from the begining (from server configuration to mobile deployment what I need to install and configure on my computer and serverside).
For example, give customer number then get customer name project on mobile device.
Thanx,

Hi,
the SAP strategy for mobile applications is (has been) a little bit confusing in the past so I try to explain some basics:
- CRM Mobile is laptop based, available is Mobile Service and Sales (including 2 branch specific applications), supported local DB system is MSSQL, connecting to SAP CRM
- NW Mobile 7.0 (7.1) is designed for handhelds, PDAs, but also for laptops; there are currently NO standard applications available connecting to CRM; but since 7.1 there exists a platform where customer specific applications can be developed; for specific queries better use the forum <SAP Netweaver - Mobile> as there are the real experts available; you also should check the help portal [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwmobile71/helpdata/en/ca/6fbd35746dbd2de10000009b38f889/frameset.htm]

Requisite JRE not found while installing CRM mobile client

Hi Experts,
We have been installing SAP CRM Mobile client component and when we start installation it stops showing the message "Requisite version of
JRE not found".
We are having java version j2sdk1.4.2_12 in the server and as per the installation guide "SUN Java 2 Standard Development Kit, Standard Edition Version 1.4.2_02 or higher in version" is required.
As instructed in the note 891477 we had installed java version 1.4.2_09
in a seperate drive and changed the value of the environment variable
JAVA_HOME accordingly.
But the problem still persists.
Also in the command prompt when we give the the command "java -version"
it shows 1.4.2_12.
Also note that our server is Microsoft(R) Windows(R) Server 2003, Enterprise Edition and 32 bit OS.
Kindly suggest.

Error while saving a Sales Order in the CRM Mobile Application

Hi,
I am facing issues while saving a Sales Order in the CRM Mobile Application. I am getting the error message "Value Field KvLangu is not valid (Error: 236 / 1102)".
I would be very grateful if somebody had faced this issue before and this way could help me with some information.
Best Regards,
Rogerio Prado.

Hi Rogerio,
You should put mobile sales related messages in the forum "CRM Mobile applications"
This error message is coming because the language table SMOT002 might be empty in your mobile client OR it does not have all the values which have been customized in the system.
You need to have subscription based on publication "customizing objects" assigned to your site.

CRM Mobile Sales Application : HTTP Communication Failure ERROR

Hi All,
I am trying to build a CRM mobile application in the Windows mobile.
the steps that we have followed are:
1. Activated and generated the Standard CRM mobile software component MAS_SMARTPHONE_DMSCV
2. Created the same Users in the CRM and DOE system
3. Set up windows mobile simulator
4. Created data in the CRM backend and performed initial download in the DOE.
5. activated the distribution model rules in the Admin and monitoring portal
6. and finally installed CRM mobile sales App in the Windows mobile,connected it to a device,and logged in to the CRM app from the simulator using the user and password created in step 2.
A device is created on the Admin & monitorng portal as soon as we sync from the simulator but we are unable to see any data
in the outbound queue.
In the transaction SMQ2 we have found our device queue with an error saying *exception occured due to HTTP communication
failure*
Debuggin the queue we are able to find an error under the class CL_DOE_ESDMA_SOAP_HANDLER in the method
PUSH_TO_DEVICE.
As we are on new grounds we are not able to assess the problem. Does it have anything to do with ports.
We are able to get see all the messages and the data while debuggin but while pushing it to the device there is a glitch.
Please suggest with any solution to this or what might be the

Hi Siva,
Thank you for your reply.
We have checked the ports that is concerning SUP it is 2000 we find it is active and open.
We have also checked a subscription monitoring table as suggested in a previous post [/community [original link is broken]
threadID=1978692].
we are getting a HTTP 110 error while debugging the queue of the device.
While checking a monitoring we have found a log saying :
Receive failed: client host = 10.116.158.208: com.sybase.djc.SystemException: HTTP: Post Message - HIOP Version not specified\nProbable cause: unexpected failure or abnormal shutdown of client application or client host
Please suggest to us what might might be the problem.

405 - ICM_HTTP_INTERNAL_ERROR in CRM Mobile Sales

Hi Experts,
We deployed a CRM Mobile Sales 1.2 in Windows Mobile simulator. When we try to login to CRM Mobile Application, it is keep on checking for initial data in the simulator, then we checked in the session monitoring for any errors, we found the error as"405 - ICM_HTTP_INTERNAL_ERROR -".
But we were able to get the all the data (Activities, Task, etc) previously. For the past two days, we were not getting any data in the mobile simulator due to this error.
Please let us know the solution for this issue at the earliest.
Thanks,
Mohan.

Hi Siva,
I am having the same problem, while trying to connect through my Windows7 laptop, the SAP CRM Mobile App keeps on showing "Checking for Initial Load" on login screen after entering the PIN, Connection Information and SAP CRM credentials and never go to App's home page.
I also tried logging through iPhone but not able to see any data there also.
I checked and found the data in MAS_AUTH_CUST & MAS_CUSTOMIZATION and BP related objects (as we haven't downloaded the Products and Transaction related objects yet), but not sure where to check USER_DETAILAS & USER_AUTHORIZATION.
How can we trace and monitor that the data is flowing from NWM to Mobile device??
Quick inputs will be highly appreciated..
Cheers!!!

SAP CRM MObility Activity Survey to create Marketing Attributes for a BP

ATtrHi Gurus ,
I have to create an Activity from IPAD ( CRM Mobility ) which will create a survey response,and the survey responses have to be captured and then create Marketing Attributes for the BP related to the Activity. I am not able to use the Callback Function given to IPAD Application.
So my Approach so far has been :
implement a badi that gets trigerred at Survey Response submission.
in that call function module crm_svy_activity_pai.(Made a Z-copy of this to enforce COMMIT WORK )
I am not able to pass the parameter lr_values for FM: CRM_SVY_ACTIVITY_PAI
These are the 2 links that has been useful so far . Kindly add to this if possible.

Hi Jacques,
Once you click on Marketing in Web UI you will find "Marketing Attribute" in the Work Area.Click on that.
You need to give ID No. and Attribute Set name.
You need to mark Persons and Organisation checked also.
Below that you will find 2 blocks " Attributes" and "Value"
Under Attribute gve your Attributes Names you want to define ( e.g. Age,Salary or any client defined..) then select the Format ( Numeric or Chracter etc...)
Once you have filled in all the Attributes you click on one attribute and below you need to fill the Values ( e.g 20-30 yrs etc...) . If you want to make that value a default one you can select default check box against each value.
That way for each attributes you can define values. Hope this would help you.
Regards...

Route Optimization in CRM Mobile

Hello,
Is anybody familiar with the route optimization in CRM Mobile? According to the documentation a PTV eServers have to be installed. What is a PTV eServer? How do you install it, and what does it cost?
In activity management there is a button called Corridor Search. When I click on it I get an error stating that an u2018Error during corridor searchu2019 Context: ACTOPTIMIZE.
I assume that this button is somehow related to the route optimization. Does anybody know more precisely what it covers, and how to activate this functionality?
Thank you in advance.
Best Regards
Andy Cooper

Hi Andy
Once upon a long time ago I had to deal a bit with PTV: They are located in Germany, and provide route optimization SW: www.ptv.de. The best would be to access their website and ask the information there, they are usually pretty friendly.

Difference between SAP MI and CRM Mobile Sales

hi experts,
we need to understand difference between SAP MI and CRM mobiles sales solutions. what are SAP's recommendations: where to use MI and where to use Mobile sales.
can some of you explain the pros and cons of each solution or let me know the place where i get such info.
thanks in advance.
RH

SAP MI apps are aimed at PDAs while CRM Mobile Sales is aimed (and can only work with) at laptops.
PDA solutions are mostly used by sales agents while the laptop solution is more suitable to account managers. The laptop has much more information available that includes:
- Marketing planning and execution capabilities
- Account Planning
- BW Reporting
Mobile Sales for PDAs has more basic functionalities like order & activity management and business partner data maintenance (which are also included in the laptop version).

CRM Mobile installation

Hi.
I am wondering if I can install and run CRM 5.0 on the same server as the Mobile Repository Server and the Communication Station? I need to define the landscape for the development, test and production system.
Can anyone shed some light on this issue?
Best Regards,
Thomas

Hi again,
here some more (subjective) proposals regarding the landscape:
1) installing of Dev and QA MRS on same machine would mean that at least one of the related repository database ARS_DB needs to be renamed after installation to be able to perform the second installation; also running 2 TO services could lead to problems so this shouldn't be considered at all
2) installing of Dev and QA MDW on same machine would mean that at least one uses a not standard generation path as mentioned above; also in case of an upgrade you would have problems with different versions of the DLLs
3) using a common comm station for Dev and QA (or even Prod) is possible. For this you need to specify different destinations (and also define this in the particular client machine registries)
4) Depending of the project volume (involved persons) it would make sense to use only one Dev. Station (= MDW in Dev System) which could be installed on MRS locally. So in case of an unstable/slow network you wouldn't have performance issues concerning a full generation.
5) If you don't want to use the complete landscape (in case of limited ressources/persons) you also could prepare the Mobile upgrade packages for the QA or Prod Clients using the Dev MDW so a minimum landscape doesn't have a QA and Prod MRS/MDW at all. However then you have to think about how to handle emergency cases when you have to prepare an urgent fix while already developing new functionalities within the Dev MDW.
In other words the size of the landscape is also depending from the way the complete Mobile project is handled and staffed.

Wolfhard

Can someone explain how Groupware fits into the CRM mobile model?.

Can anyone explain how Groupware fits into the CRM mobile model?.
Also we have the client console on the laptop, but it looks very basic. My understanding is that it's supposed to be able to download sales details before going on the road, is that correct, or have I misunderstood something?.
