CRM Target Groups and Product Segments - BW and BPS settings

Hi gurus,
I have some questions regarding the CRM Target Groups and Product Segments as it relates to BW and BPS planning layouts.
1. When a target group is created in CRM, is it supposed to also be create master data entry for the object 0TGGRP_ID in BW? If it is, what kind of settings need to be made to ensure that? When we create target groups in our CRM instance, we donu2019t see the master data being updated for the 0TGGRP_ID info object.
2. Where exactly (in BW) is the relationship between the target group and the underlying customer/business partners stored/updated? We have a requirement to use target groups for defining the trade promotions and still being able to explode and plan on (individual) customers in the embedded BPS Planning layout. I believe that we need to have target group and associated customer assignments stored somewhere (?) in BW and use BPS characteristic relationships to populate all the possible combinations for a target group ID being passed from CRM. Am I correct in my assumptions? Any ideas if SAP has already delivered something similar in the BPS business content for TPM?
3. We are planning to use product segments to define the trade promotions as well. I believe BW info object is 0CP_SEGMENT. Similar to what I mentioned in Question 1, I donu2019t see any master data being updated for 0CP_SEGMENT. Am I looking at a wrong BW object or missing some key settings?
4. Where is the relationship between a Product Segment and the associated products stored/updated in BW? How do I create a trade promotion using a product segment and make the BPS planning layout populate individual products in the lead column?
Thank you for your help

Hi Anna,
After reading your post, what i understand is that there is no existing relationship present in CRM system between the Org BP and the contact person BP.
As per my Knowledge in order to create a Target group with Contact Persons you should have an active relationship persent in the CRM system bewteen the BP and the Contact person.Now as your sceanrio suggests that the Contact person's are present in the BW system but not in CRM, i would assume that the relationship also exsits in the BW . So if it does then your BW team should be able to help you in creating the necessary infocube with there analytical tools and you can then use there cube as the datasource and create the necessary Target Group with Contact persons.
Comming to the second part of your question, your guess is absolutely right but to give you more detailed infomation , the BP ID is converted in a unique GUID and this is passed into the program to retrive the necessary information from the BP after the campaign is executed.
Hope this helps!!

Naveen

Authorization Error while exporting a target group to local file

Dear All,
When we tried to export a created target group to local file, system gave an error message: "Authorization required. See SAP Note: 697572".
In this note, it tells that we should add certain authorization entries into the Java policy file under: \lib\security. It mentioned:
Authorization              Target name       Action
RuntimePermission                                modifyThread
PropertyPermission        user.dir           read
FilePermission            <<ALL FILES>>   read
FilePermission            <<ALL FILES>>    write
RuntimePermission                                  shutdownHooks
And what we put into the policy file is as below:
     permission java.util.PropertyPermission "user.dir", "read";
     permission java.util.FilePermission "ALL FILES", "read";
     permission java.util.FilePermission "ALL FILES", "write";
     permission java.util.RuntimePermission "modifyThread";
     permission java.util.RuntimePermission "shutdownHooks";
We are not sure about whether we should put <<ALL FILES>> or ALL FILES, but tried both way and still didn't work.
Could you please share your experience on this?
Thanks!

Tried again and it worked.

Send data from APD to CRM target groups

Hi everybody.
I am trying to make a marketing segmentation of customers in the APD (BI) and I need to send the results to a target group in CRM, my problem is that I can´t see target groups in the u201CData Target CRMu201D.
I select the Logical System and when I select the Data Target the system shows CRM error: Data target TARGET_GROUP_FROM_B not known.
I know that the communication is OK, the RFC is working cause I can see Marketing Attributes (I released data target for replication and maintained attributes) but I don´t know if I need to do something similar with Target Groups of CRM or how.
Does anyone have an idea how can I see target groups in the window of the Data Target?
Thanks.

Does someone have the manual CR900? the manual BW380 sais that there is the information I need, Is there a kind soul that can help me? I will thank it a lot.

Issues exporting file from Target group

Hi Experts,
Can someone let me know the process for exporting file from Target group, I am working on CRM 7.0 .
or give me the SNOTE to implement the same.
Thanks
Leela

Hi,
for small Target Groups (i.e. Target Groups that can be displayed completely on the UI, < 10k members) you can export them via the export to spreadsheet button on the header of the Target Group item page (right side). Note that only the members that are shown in the table on the UI are exported. For bigger Target Groups, you can only export them to the application server. To do this, you will have to press the "Export to File" button on the header of the Target Group page. this will schedule a job which exports your Target Group to the application server. You can download it from there using report CRM_MKTTG_FEXP_SHOW_FILE.
Hope this helps

Export target group by using mail form?

Hi Gurus,
we have a requirements to export the target group to a file but with the attributes we defined in Mailform. If I chose the export to a file then I need to enhance a BADI to define all these attributes again.
Is it possible to export target group to a file by leverage the mail forms?
We are working on CRM7.0
Thanks,
Wu

Hi Hongfa,
Export target group to file
You use this function to export the business partner data for target group members to a file, so that you can process this data further at a later date, or simply for storage purposes.
You can choose which business partner fields the export file will contain. You use the BAdI CRM_MKTTG_SEG_MEM_EX to define the fields you require.
The name of the file you create is freely definable. The file name you specify is saved in the logical file path MARKETING_FILES, which you define in Customizing (see Prerequisites). The data is written to two files: a data file that contains the actual data, and a meta file that contains the description of the data (for example, field types and field descriptions). In the standard system, MARKETING_FILES refers to the DIR_GLOBAL directory (transaction AL11). There is no restriction on the number of business partners.

Expand existing Target Group

Hi All,
I need help on Target Group for CRM Data Target in BW APD. I did a simple Analysis Process in APD, and put CRM as my Data Target. I choose the CRM as the data target and select CRM Target Group. However, on the Target Group tab, I can create Profile Set and Target Group, and data is transferred to CRM correctly. My question is, if I want to choose the Change Existing Profile Set and Expand Existing Target Group from the menu, they are grayed out and I can not choose anything. It doen not make sense that I have to create new Target Group everytime I run the Analysis Process.
I found the problem, the aleremote user must be defined as dialog instead of communications.
Thanks,
Ricky

Hi Ravi,
to change the title dynamically, you need to redefine the Methode:

go through this code and modify as per your requirement.

Enhance target group result list

Hi *,
I'm faced a requirement to enhance the result list of a target group with some SAP standard fields. Essentially persons and organizations data have to be combined in one list to export to excel.
In the configuration I found # 30 "blank" fields to use for this purpuse. Unfortunately I have no idea how to fill these fields.
Any suggestions.
Thanx a lot.
Kind regards
Thomas

Hello Thomas,
you can use BAdI CRM_MKTTG_SEG_MEM_EX to enhance the structure CRMT_MKTTG_GENIL_TG_I_ATTR. This contains up to 30 user defined fields. Please refer to the customizing:
--> Marketing --> Segmentation --> Business Add-Ins (BAdIs)
--> BAdI: Define Display and Export for Target Group Members List
The fields are then mapped to the context node TARGETGROUPITEM in view SEGED_HV/TargetGroupItemEOL.
best regards,
Johannes

Creating a target group based on the BP email address only in CRM

Hi there,
I am currently trying to create a target group based on the business partner email address only.
I have a list of over 1000 email addresses - these email addresses equate to a BP in our CRM system, however I do not have a list of the equivalent business partner numbers, all I have to work on are the email addresses. With these 1000 BP email addresses I need to update the marketing attributes of each of these 1000 BP records in CRM.
What I need is a method to find the 1000 BP numbers based on the email addresses and then use the marketing expert tool (tx. CRMD_MKT_TOOLS) to change the marketing attributes on all of the 1000 BPs.
The issue I am having is how can I find the list of BP numbers just based on the BP email address, I tried creating an infoset based on table BUT000, BUT020 and ADR6 but I after creating attribute list & data source for this I am stuck on what to do next. In the attribute list the selection criteria does not allow me to import a file for the selection range. I can only enter a value but I have 1000 email addresses and cannot possibly email them manually in the filter for the attribute list.   I also looked at imported a file into the target group but I do not have any BP numbers so this will not work.
Does anyone know a method where I can create a target group based on the email addresses only without having to do any code?
Any help would be most appreciated.
Kind regard
JoJo

XSLT transformation error when importing target group in CRM Survey cockpit

Hi,
I created a target group using the segment builder and exported that to a local file. Then when creating a survey using CRM survey cockpit (tcode: SURVEY) and trying to import the same target group from the local file; I get an error :
"Error when applying a XSLT transformation"
System Response
Data transformation cannot be executed. Application functions that depend on the transformation cannot be executed
I tried various file formats : RTF, TXT, XLS, HTML but still I get the same error. Export to XML option is neither available while exporting from segment builder nor while importing into Survey cockpit. The target group is not empty.
Are there any settings to be maintained to resolve the error ?????
Dhaval.

Hi Suhel,
Thanks for the response... as far as my understanding goes, the crm survey suite can be used for maintaining questoinnaires that are transaction specific. also the functionality of question tables and rows is not available in the survey suite but is available in the survey cockpit (tcode: SURVEY).
However the same does not allow me to refer to the target groups created using the segment builder.... Is there a way I can use the target group created through the segment builder in the survey cockpit ????
