Hi David/Jothi/BJ,
I am very much confused here and struck with this private folder thing. I have already set up publc folder synch from CRM to outlook.
Baically i did all possible things for private foder synch mentioned in stnadard SAP docuemnts. but they are very clumsy.
the issues which i m facing here are below :
My Requirment -> we need implement the private folder integration using sbdoc for our client here. we have to somply transfers all the contacts to employees private folder.
I went throught the document/blog u posted it is really good. however I have some big questions. below please find some of them , also apart from your blog if u have really any good doucment which u created or found somewhere , if u can forward the same here will be greate help.
We did all possible config which I found in net but facing below issues :
Questions :
1. do we have to create 2 separate sites or only one site of type sbdoc? and also tell me what all subscriptions i need to assign to them? there are 3 subsription i created , now do i have to assign them to a single site or I have to create 2 different sites - subcriptions : 'Employee' , E-mail Information for Groupware and subsrtiption created with CONGEN_OBJ_WRT. do i have to create subscription for CAPGEN_OBJ_WRITE as well?
2. do i have to laod the BP data to CDB (we dont want to transfer relationship data as of now)?
3. how actually private folder works? our requirmenet is we have arnd 10 users to use our application so when they create or update any contact in CRM , that contact should flow his/her private folder. so for this how actually standards checks that who is user changing/creaton the BP. Is it thru created_by of BP. please explain a bit.
4. do i have to laod all the employee/users (who has valid mail id and private mail box (folder)) to MAPBOX? if yes then how?
5. How this userlist.xml created and who provides data to it? is it grpware connector? do i have to have all of my user/employee (who are participating data exchange from CRM to outlook provate folder) into USERLIST.XML file?
6. what else we need in grpware side in terms of config or setup. we already have a valid user in CRM and grpware with private folder for this user and a valid email id for this user arleady set up. Plsease tell us if there anything apart from this?
Please help me I really stuck here and not able to proceed.

Do custom objects work with email integration?

I would like to consider using a custom object for a division of our organization to separately log support tickets (we've run out of available fields in the service request object). Is there any way to use the email integration with custom objects?
Thanks
Diana

According to the Help, only the following records are supported: Account, Contact, Lead, Opportunity, or Service records. The custom record types that we have created do not show up in the Email integration either.

CRM groupware integr: Mapping additional customer data

Hi,
we're running CRM groupware integration for replicating CRM contact persons to outlook private folder. This works fine in principle. However, I've got a question:
When taking a look at an outlook contact one is able to maintain several phone numbers, e.g. "Business, Business2, Private, Private2, ..." as well as several mail addresses "E-Mail, E-Mail2, E-Mail3". By default the default phone number of the business parter in CRM is replicated to phone number "Business" in outlook. Same logic for mobile and fax number. Is there a way to replicate the other numbers and mail addresses (non-default) to the outlook contact and provide them under the corresponding fields (e.g. "Business2", "E-Mail2")?
Thanks for any inputs & kind regards
Wolfgang Mayer

Hi Praveen,
do you mean
- the email addresses maintained in the standard address
or
- the default email address?
The standard address is marked as BUT020-XDFADR, the default (standard) mail address (in the standard address) is marked as ADR6-FLGDEFAULT.
Pls clarify this issue.
Thanks & regards
Wolfgang

Questions relating to Groupware Integration (Outlook)

Hello,
I have few questions relating to groupware integration for Outlook:
Q1) The "Relate to CRM" option in outlook add-in for end user is available only in client side integration? Is it not available for server sider integration (i.e. in server side, end user cannot directly assign CRM account or Transaction to object in outlook the way it is done in client side)?
Q2) Is there any end user interface (like add-on) available in server side?
Q3)In client side - Can the outlook add-on for SAPCRM be enhanced for different business logic or look n feel?
Thanks,
Vicky

Hello Vicky,
1) Yes the Relate to SAP CRM function is part of Client-side groupware only.
2) The Add-in is only available with Client-side groupware.
3) The Add-in cannot be customized. However the results can be influenced by parameters in transaction GWIPROFILE.
The information displayed in the Business information Pane can be changed.
Best Regards,

Set Default Value based on Field from another table for a custom object

I'm trying to set the default value on a custom object field to the value of an account field. I have tried the syntax 50 different ways, and just am getting no where. The account field label displays as DBA, the integration tag is ltDBA_ACCT, and it shows up in reporting fx area as Account.Text_22.
The custom object field I'm triying to update is also called DBA, which was originally the "NAME" required field. Does the table name, Account, have to be included? Do I need a function in front of the field?
I have been updating the external ID using the row ID with syntex <ID> (Less than ID greater than) so I know it is possible to set the Default Value, but <DBA>, <ltDBA_ACCT>, "Account"."DBA", and so on just don't not work.
If anyone knows how to enter this I'd really appreciate the help.

Ok, so if you want to default a field to the value from another object, you have to use the JoinFieldValue function. I think you understand that, based on your original post, but I want to be sure that you do.
Next, this will only work as a default if the record is created from the object that you wish to join on because a default works at record creation and the ID needs to be available for it to work properly. It will not work if you choose the related object record after the custom object record is created. You could set the value as a post-default, but that does not seem to meet your requirements.
The syntax for the Default Value would be as follows: JoinFieldValue(ref_record_type, foreign_key, field_name).
In your case, ref_record_type is '<Account>', foreign_key is [<AccountId>], and field_name is '<YourFieldName>'. The best way to determine what the field name is would be to create a new workflow for Account and use the Workflow Rule Condition expression builder to pick your field ("DBA") from the list. The value that is returned by the expression builder should be placed in the field_name variable in the JoinFieldValue function (minus the brackets and in single quotes).
Give this a shot and let me know how you do.

CRM 5.2 groupware integration error....

Hi,
I've set up Server side groupware integration of CRM 5.2 with MS outlook. The BPs are getting exchanged from CRM to Outlook and vice versa.
Activities and Tasks are flowing from CRM to Outlook.
But when Outlook tasks and activities are saved, the connector creates an error dump file. This is created for new tasks and activities as well as for any changes to tasks and activities with source as CRM.
The error message is:
<subject>Organizer's mail id is not mapped to a business partner in CRM online</subject>
<description>Organizer's mail id is not mapped to a business partner in CRM online</description>
The employee is maintained in Org Structure with email ID. Are there any other setting to be maintained for email ID mapping??
Thanks!
Cheers,
Aarthi.

Pls check the following:
1) Check Groupware Connector locks:
Check the Current Locks in the AdminTool.exe, that is available in the Connector installation folder. Check if the current user (from which the appointment or contact change is triggered) is locked. If the user is locked, attempt unlock user, however if the user continues to be in the locked state, report the problem to the components EP-KM-CRM-EXC (MS Exchange) or EP-KM-CRM-LOT (Lotus Domino).
2) Check UserList.xml:
Open the UserList.xml, that is available in the connector installation folder and check the availability of the current useru2019s id (SMTP address of the organizer from which the appointment or contact change is triggered).
If the user id does not exist in the file, provide an update for the corresponding Business Partner from CRM. Before giving the update check if the smtp address is assigned for that partner in the Address Dependent Communication section. If not, assign the correct email address and provide an update for the Business partner, After that update check if the id is included in this file.
u2022     If the ID is included in UserList.xml, restart the connector service and provide an update for that appointment or contact in groupware and check if this is transferred to CRM.
u2022     If the ID is not included in the UserList.xml, even after the update of Business Partner from CRM, report the problem to the CRM-MW-GWI-GWA component.
3) Check Applist.xml:
a)     Open the Applist.xml, that is available in the connector installation folder and check the availability of appid=ACT.
If that is not available,
Navigate to the u201CMaintain Groupware Object Selection Fieldsu201D and u201CMaintain Groupware Object Selection and Retrievalu201D IMG views, and check if ACT is available there. If not, maintain BUPA information over there. And trigger the download of GWA_GWO_SELRET. (To get help regarding this, refer the Groupware Integration setup and load guide). After that download is complete, restart the connector service. After that, check if ACT is available in applist.xml. If not, report the problem to CRM-MW-GWI-GWA component.
b)     Check if the category you have entered in the category field of the Appointment or Task, starts with CRM_ACT. If not, prefix the category with CRM_ACT. (To create Master category list, refer the Groupware Integration setup and load guide)
3) Check Email ID u2013 USERLIST mapping:
Select the email ID of the organizer in the Appointment or Task. Navigate to the MBMANDTSTORE table, and select the record for which MBKEY = {email-id} (all the email Ids will be present in Upper case) and MBGROUP = u2018USERLSITu2019.
u2022     If the record does not exist, check if the Email ID is assigned for that partner in the address dependent communication of the Business Partner master data. If not, assign the correct email ID and save this change in the Business Partner application. Check if this record can be found after this change.
u2022     Otherwise report the problem to CRM-MW-GWI-GWA component.

Data import/update on Custom Objects

Hi,
We are using the Custom Object1 for capturing site data within an opportunity. Since the custom object does not have capability to check for duplicates, the users have now entered data into this object which have lot of duplicates and also the data quality and integrity is lost. I am trying to see if there is an option to export this data and reimport them back after cleansing the data.
I then realised while importing custom objects, the only available option is to use external id.All the site that have been entered by the users do not have any external unique id. Also there is no option to do a mass delete records within the custom object1.
I understand that the only option to cleanse and reimport them back into ondemand is using web services. I want to use web services as last option.
Is there any other option to reimport them back into ondemand using the import utility after cleansing the data.
I would like to know what is the best practice while using custom objects. Is it advisable to populate a default value in the external unique id for custom objects while creating new records. If i had populated some value in the external unique ids while creating those records, i would have had the option to update the existing records. Now i don't even that option.
I am looking for some suggestions for this issue.
Thanks
Swami

Bobb,
I exported the data and mapped the row id to the external unique id. Like i said before, the external id is blank in crm ondemand when it is created. We did not have any default value specified for the external unique id.
When i tried to import with overwrite option, it does not find a match.
I get the following error message as i expected.
Row Id: AEMA-EYGFE     No matching record has been found. The import process will ignore this record.
Row Id: AEMA-F8CPC     No matching record has been found. The import process will ignore this record.
Row Id: AEMA-12CLIA     No matching record has been found. The import process will ignore this record.
Unless i do a web service update of External Unique ID in crm ondemand, the import option will not work.
Thanks
Swami

Does the APPS schema have full access to custom objects

DB - 11.2.0.3 - s390 - SLES11SP2
APP - 12.1.3 - x86_64 - SLES11SP2
One of my lead developers has posed a question to me.......namely -
Does the APPS user have implicit select and delete privileges on custom objects without an explicit GRANT statement?

Please see (Step By Step Guide to Creating a Custom Application in Applications 11i [ID 216589.1]) which is applicable to R12 as well -- "Grant all privilege from each custom data object to the APPS schema" step.
Please also see (Step 9. Integrate your database objects with the APPS schema by granting APPS the access to your custom schema’s objects) in (Integrating Custom Applications with Oracle Applications [ID 176852.1).

Difference in DNL (Customizing) objects in CRM 7.0 and CRM 5.0

Hi,
I wanted to know if any new DNL's (customizing objects) have been introduced in the CRM 7.0 version in comparison to CRM 5.0. and if yes then which ones are critical with respect to data integrity and smooth functioning of the system.
Regards
Kshitij Garg

Hi Kshitij,
I dont think there is any new customizing object for CRM7.0 other than from CRM5.0. One have to follow the same procedure to download the customizing objects.
Please find the list of customizing objects for CRM7.0 in the following link:

Can we create custom objects in WebI 4.0 BICS connectivity in BI 4.0 ?

Hi All,
I am using BI 4.0 and would like to know if we can create custom objects(measures or dimensions) in WebI 4.0 using the BICS connectivity with SAP BW BEx Queries?
Rohit

Hi,
No, I'm afraid that's not possible with the BICS 'transient universe' (because you cannot edit the BW OLAP business layer in IDT)
Sure - in XI3.1, SAP Integration Kit, OLAP .unv universes, it was possible to do custom objects with MDX and XML tags.
Infact, the UDT is still available in BI 4.0

Unable to set up the default value in custom object 10,related item section

Hi,
Please help me out for the below issue
Custom Object 10 we renamed to Quarterly Broker Review .In Quarterly Broker Review there is a related item section 'Activity'.
In Quarterly Broker Review ,Activity related Section ,After clicking on The 'New Task' button 'Account Name' field in Quarterly Broker Review(Parent ) should be prefilled in the Activity Section(Related Item Section) in Account Name Field
'Account Name' field is a Picklist Read Only field.
Since it is a picklist read only field i couldn't write the expression in the 'Activity' Related section under 'Account Name' field
you can also help me by reaching at '[email protected]'
Thanks,
Srinivas Merugu

Hi Srinivas,
As you know, you can refer to a field in a different object by using JoinFieldValue function. But this function is not available for all the object references. If you refer online help for JoinFieldValue function you would notice that from activity only CustomObjects 1,2 an 3 can be referenced using this function.
If this is possible for the activity and CustomObject 10 then you go to the field named Account Id in Activity object and set a default value. I guess in the parent object "CustomObject10" Account Id will also be stored in "Account: Integration ID". So this field value can be copied into the Account Id field of Activity.
Instead you could write a web service program to achieve this.
Thanks

Problems with the groupware integration

Hy experts,
I have some problems with the groupware integration in SAP. I synchronize a own customized contact with a outlook date.
The current problem is, that the outlook date are not generated only for one person. The Sales Representative and the Sales Representative get each a date.
I have customized Map Activity Text Types and Business Partners to Groupware with:
Description= sales visit
Text Type = Z003 (Outlook information our own texttype )
Planner = 00000022 (Person Responsible )
Fct. Participnt = empty
Fctn: Cont. Person = empty
Can anyone tell me, how to customize the system, that only the Sales Representative get the date.
I hope for help.
Kind regards
Torsten

hi
it is pretty simple
you just maintain the calender mentainence only for the sales represntative,
make sure that the person you want to display on calender ,the function category for that should be activity partner only
and in transaction also maintain the calender settings
just "person responsible" should have flag of callender as checked ,rest should be unchecked
so just go inside your PDP and therein partner function maintain the settings
in case of any doubt please revert back
best regards

Custom Objects

Hi,
I have created a custom object and dragged it to the Custom Object Library. When I am on my disconnected designer, am able to use it.
But, I want let other use it.
Please tell me how do I export the custom object from the designer and import the custom object into the Livecycle workbench ES2 resources.
Thanks and Regards,

We are working to create a portlet that will integrate with the Crystal Enterprise reporting engine from Business Objects. The difficultly here is the authentication and authorization. Crystal can tie into Active Directory for authentication and authorization, but not the plumtree portal. We need the integration to work properly for all users in plumtree, whether they come from AD or not. As such, we need to build some type of custom authentication and authorization capabilities into our portlet.
Nonetheless, we plan to make as much use as possible with what is already provided. So our plan is to create a set of SQL tables that will tie together a crystal report with a list of groups in plumtree and define what rights those particular plumtree groups have on the report.
The reason I was interested in creating custom objects is as follows: If I could create a "crystal report" object in our plumtree portal, I would then have to do NO coding to allow administrators in plumtree to assign permissions for particular groups to those "crystal report" objects. My portlet would do a simple query of what "crystal report" objects the current user has access to and display them, and allow the user to interact with them. As it is, we are planning to create interfaces for adding and removing groups to a report, and giving those groups various levels of access to the reports.
Thanks for asking.

Contact associated Custom object records in SR when contact is selected

Hi
We have a scenario like this:
Contact->Family members
For Contact - Contact Record Type
For Family members - using Custom Object 1 record type
This is fine. Whenever a family member is added, ContactId is stamped against the Custom object 1 record. So, when the contact is searched, the family members are also displayed in the child.
Problem:
Whenever there is a SR raised against the Contact, the child of SR should show up Family member names of the selected Contact. These records should be editable.
Have anyone come across such problem or do anyone have a good solution without using Web Services or any kind of integration here?
Regards,
Suchitra

Hi Becky, unfortunately you cannot directly create a custom object record in the manor you are describing (from a program or canvas step). However, what you COULD do is submit to a form from program builder using the "Form Submit" cloud connector. That way you can leverage the form processing steps as you would normally. Be warned, if you want to use one custom object for ALL nurture records, then you will have to create a unique key other than email address (otherwise you will simply overwrite the last record over and over again). The key could be something like email+nurtureName. BUT be warned again, depending how many contacts you are nurturing, this type of cloud connector could get "clogged" pretty easily, as last i checked it was only able to process something like 300 records an hour. If you have several thousand records potentially being nurtured, this may not be a great option.
