External lists for updating marketing attributes

Hi,
I'm now working in CRM 3.1, but we're going to upgrade for 5.0 in the autumn. In this relation I'm working on a pre-project where I'm looking for the possibilities for using external lists for updating marketing attributes on existing BPs. How can I map this fields? Do I use advanced mapping fields or structure enhancement using appended fields?
Thanks, Camilla

Camilla,
Yes, this function become standard for CRM 5.0. CRM5.0 ELM provide different format types for create BPs (with marketing attributes), activities and leads. You need to define different format type when you create mapping format. For updating marketing attributes, you need to choose type "Business Partner" type so that all the marketing attributes will be available for you to pick to create the mapping format.
You can look at the CRM5.0 release note and document for more details

Updating marketing attributes from BW

Hi anyone!
We're using the Analysis Process Designer in BW for updating marketing attributes in CRM. We face two problems:
1. When updating an attribute with several values (have set the multiple value indicator in the transaction maintain attributes) BW only updates one attribute value. The second value overwrites the first one.
2. When using currency as data type for the attribute value we get an error in BW when we start the process of updating the marketing attributes.
Have any of you faced the same issue???
Regards Camilla

Hello,
we have a scenerio where in we have to transfer data from BW to CRM (Campaign from BW to CRM) and presently we are on BI 7.0 and CRM 5.0.
Please can any one of you provide how to guide or steps if Customization required in BW and CRM side.
One of the method is using APD, but here also i am new..can any one have tried??
Thanks in Advance..

Update market attribute for BP

Dear expert, i need to update market attribute of bp in CRM.
At the moment i'm using function module CRM_MKTBP_ASSIGN_ATTRIBUT_TAB to create/update the attribute.
It works fine but there is a problem when I try to update the field ATWRT (characteristic value) on an attribute that already exist. For example if I have:
OBJEK
000000000000000058
ATINN
0000000034
ATWRT
N
and I want to update in :
OBJEK
000000000000000058
ATINN
0000000034
ATWRT
Y
This doesn't work. I found another function to do it, CRM_MKTBP_UPDATE_ATTR_BP, but I don't know if I can use it instead to use CRM_MKTBP_ASSIGN_ATTRIBUT_TAB .
Anybody already found this problem ?
Davide

ok, thanks, and do you know if in case i want to delete an attribute from bp exist another function module ?

Davide

Problem in Updating marketing attributes for Contact

Hi,
I am trying to update marketing attributes for contact and Account while Creating lead. For this I implemented ORDER_SAVE (Chek before save).
For account, the marketing attributes are getting updated fine. But, for Contact they are not getting updated. For both I am using the same code. But, I dont understand, why.

Update Marketing attributes in Interactive Scripting

Hi All,
I would like to know if anyone knows how to :
1. Display multi value fields in Interactive Scripting 5.2
In standard IS editor, there is a dynamic answer "Marketing Attribute 5.1". We need to create new ones. What it the process ?
2. Update Marketing Attributes (or any other multi value fields) in IS. In addition to that, IS Editor in 5.2 don't have "ABAP Call" and "RFC ABAP Call" type actions in the repository, where 4.0 comes with these types. I would like to make a RFC call to R/3 from IS, and display the returned value in the IS.
Thank you,
Vadim Boriskevich.

Hello Mike,
Yes, You have to clearly define what type of marketing attribute it is. i mean whether person or organization.
It is not possible to use marketing attributes which are valid for persons AND organizations for survey.
For eg. If the marketing attribute is of type person(you can see this in the trx Crmd_prof_templ) and the BP is of type Organisation then it wont work for you.
In this case either change the attributes to Organization type ,reattach them in the survey suite and then try.
If you have attribute of person type then the BP should be of the same type.Actually in the code there is a string which matches from both the sides.So in case of any mismatch the updation would not be there.
Hope this answers your question.
Thanks

Update marketing attributes and send mBDoc BUPA_MAIN

Hi,
When I update marketing attributes in CRM there are three mBDocs sent into queues (MKTPROF_MSG and CHARVAL_MSG) and also BUPA_MAIN .
I'd like to know if sending BUPA_MAIN is an standard SAP solution or not.
If it's not where can I find how it's work (configuration, sap note)
Thank's in advance
Robert

Hi Robert,
As of the relationship beteween the three bdoc, it has been coded as of SAP is concerned. As any change in Marketing attribute has to be reflected in BP so that no inconsistency occurs.
You can obviously stop generation of one of the mbdocs, but the generation will not be conditionally stoped, but it will be stop permanently.

Update marketing attribute and customer master data via Survey Response

Hi,
I am creating a marketing survey. I have come to a point where I am able to get the reponses posted by the business partners.
Now I would like to update the BP's directly when they respond. The challenge here is I want to update both Marketing attribute and Customer master.
Is this possible with standard function modules. I am using version 4.0. Please let me know.
Regards,
Hemanth

Hello Hemanth,
Check my last response in the below thread, it could be a reason.

API/package/procedure/function for updating physical attributes in Org/Mast

I need some kind of procedure or function for updating the weight, volume, and dimensions in the organization and master items forms. We have almost 350,000 items and I want to update them in batch. Is there an API of some kind for this? I would do a simple update but I want to make sure there's no additional logic necessary (other tables that are updated during the process of updating those fields, etc).
Thanks!

here is for API's you need to check...
You can use Decimal & UOM Quantity API
These APIs are used to handle item decimal quantities:
Convert from one UOM to another
Validate quantities at input time
Validate quantities at display/output time
Quantity Comparison
Get UOM information
For your convenience, I am giving you the API as below:
/*===========================================================================+
| Copyright (c) 1999 Oracle Corporation |
| Redwood Shores, California, USA |
| All rights reserved. |
+===========================================================================*/
/*-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
|This package contains procedures relevent to item decimal quantity |
|processing. This package contains routines to: |
|(1)validate item quantities based on UOM and decimal precision rules |
|(2)validate whether the UOM controls and decimal precision rules |
| themselves are correct based on functionality planned. For reviewing|
| UOM and decimal quantity functional design details, please visit the|
| following URL: |
| "http//apps-us.oracle.com/inv/development/designs_120/ |
| decimal_precision/decimal_precision.html" |
|But here are a few basics to give background context: |
| |
| "Item Quantity" -- The item's quantity is described by the item |
| identifier, the unit of measure (e.g. grams, kilos, etc), and a |
| number value to indicate the amount in that unit of measure. |
| |
| "Unit of Measure" -- Units of measure belong to unit of measure |
| classes(e.g. weight, volume, length, etc). Each unit of measure class|
| has actual units of measure that belong to that class (e.g. the |
| weight class may have units of measures like, "grams", "kilos", etc).|
| |
| "UOM Conversion" --Users can set up conversion rates between UOMs in |
| them same UOM class, by defining conversions to the base UOM. These |
| are standard conversions. Item-level intra-class conversions may also|
| be defined. When doing intra-class conversions, item-level |
| intra-class conversions are used first if defined, and then standard |
| conversions are used. |
| Users can define inter-class conversions. Inter-class Conversions may|
| also be defined at the lot/sublot levels. For inter-class conversions|
| sublot, lot, and then item inter-class conversions will be used in |
| in order. If lot-lvel conversion is not defined, then item-level |
| conversion is used. A strict hierarchy is imposed. |
| |
| "TU" -- Trasactable Unit.A UOM may have a TU. This implies |
| that when transacting in this UOM, any item's quantities will be |
| forced to be integer multiples of this TU quantity. The TU may also |
| be declared at the item level. The TU quantity at the item level may |
| be different from the UOM level TU, and if defined, item level TU |
| takes precedance. |
| |
| "Decimal Precision"--Users have a choice of setting decimal precision|
| at the base UOM for each UOM class. All other UOMs in that class get |
| get their decimal precisions derived from the base UOM decimal |
| precision, the converison rate, and TUs, if they are |
| being used. |
| |
| |
| "Conversion Rate Tolerance" -- This is a tolerance that may be set |
| when conversion rate cannot be not strictly fixed. Example: |
| 1 Chicken = 2 pounds (plus or minus 0.7 pounds). This 0.7 pounds is |
| the conversion rate tolerance. Conversion rate tolerance is only |
| definable at inter-class UOM conversions, at item or lot/sublot level|
| |
| History |
| 04/08/99 Mansoor Jafri Created Package Spec |
| 04/26/99 Mansoor Jafri Updated with TU at 3 levels as |
| opposed to MTU at 2 and atomic at|
| UOM class level. |
| 04/29/99 Mansoor Jafri Updated document with lot/sublot |
| conversions. Also, removed |
| "atomic" as a separate control, |
| since this can |
| implemented as a TU at base UOM |
| level with an integer quantity. |
| 05/03/99 Mansoor Jafri Updated the package with sublot |
| level control. Also, changed name|
| of DTU to TU, so that it fits |
| better in the "process" market. |
| Also, conformed to BOI API stds. |

Tables for the marketing attributes

Hi Experts
I want to know in which table marketing attributes data are saved
sri

Sri,
The easiest way to retrieve this data is the following:
Use the function module CRM_MKTBP_READ_BP_DATA to get the values set for a particular business partner. You will need to pass in the guid of the business partner and the name of profile set The exporting parameters should be IV_BP_GUID and IV_PROFILE_TEMPLATE_ID respectively.
You will then get a table returned called ET_ALLOCVALUES to retrieve those values.
To get the "meta-data" of an attribute set you can call the function module CRM_MKTPFTPL_READ. You will need to pass in the attribute set name and then you will receive the ET_ATTRIBUTES which contains the meta data for that attribute set.
This method is a lot eaiser than trying to read the tables directly in system, which is a really not a good idea in CRM, as you should use the BAPI's/API's instead.
To update attribute set values for a business partner use the function module:
CRM_MKTBP_CHANGE_BP
Take care,

User interface for updating/adding attributes in OID

Hello,
I have not done the develop work in OAS10g (web, oid, +) though I have years experiences as DBA in OAS and Oracle database servers.
I need to develop a user interface for users to add or update the user's attributes such as sn, manager etc.
The IDM system is working in prod: OAS 10g r2, installed (upgraded to) with infrastructure and oid 10.1.4.3.
OID: user attributes have been loaded with: CN, UID, mail and etc.
The requirement
User interface: an app based Ohttp web 10g
I'd like the interface works like:
The user accessing the web interface, is prompted with UID and mail. if the user correctly fills the fields, then will be prompted with the attributes which user can add or update.
Because I have Not done any development in OAS (web, oid), I need know what skills I need to aquire. ANd how should I proceed?
I may know the skills would be Ohttp development and OID API (LDAP), but I need these be specific as much as possible.
Can any point the direction with examples and docs?
TIA

Please provide orcladmin/<password> credentials for accessing this Web UI.
---ABP thanks.
1) the app for user to add/update the attributes. we cannot give orcladmin to them
2) though the users as their own can access the oiddas, there are only limit of user info could be updated, which cannot serve the attributes we customized and loaded in OID.

External list not updating on published page

I have a problem with adding an external list on a page.
I have created an external content type in SharePoint Designer och created an External list from it. The list shows and updates as it should.
When I add an external list web part to a page and check in the page it works as well. But when I publish the page, the web part doesn't update to show the result. It just shows the updating icon. I have tested with pages that do not require publishing and
everything works just fine.
Have anyone experienced this? Is it a bug?

If you edit the web part, in the properties pane there is a AJAX Options section. Disable the first option and you would be good to go. You may explore these options further if you are interested.
Hope that helps.

Hi Simanchal,
Whether this issue occurred for internal user.
Please check whether you set access on the BCS object that you created. Go to Central Administration -> Application Management -> Manage Service Applications -> Business Data Connectivity Service* -> [Your Entity] -> Set Permissions.
If the above solution doesn’t work, please set Metadata Store Permissions on the BCS object, compare the result.
There is a link for your reference:

Marketing Attributes not updating in BP through Suvery

Callback to PAI CRM_MKTBP_SVY_ATTRIBUTE_PAI

Hello together,
I would like to describe my own problem with updating Marketing Attributes in a Business Partner via a CRM Survey.
Currently I am working with SAP CRM 7.0 EHP1. The Survey is maintained in SAP Survey Suite in the Application "Marketing".
Furthermore I am using the following function modules:
Callback to PBO CRM_MKTBP_SVY_ATTRIBUTE_PBO
Callback to PAI CRM_MKTBP_SVY_ATTRIBUTE_PAI
The Marketing Attributes should be updated within a Contact. This contact have assigned the role "Internet User". Behind this role I have defined my CRM User name.
For testing the Attribute update I have generated an URL with BSP. Afterwards I opened this URL and logged in with my CRM User name. After filling in the survey and submitting no business partner were updated. It seems that the "conversion" from my CRM User to the CRM contact doesn't work. I think there could be a problem with the PBO and PAI modules. Because the functionality "Evaluation" within the Survey Suite shows a number of evaluated questionnaires and answers after submitting my survey.
So my questions:
Are the mentioned PBO and PAI modules up to date? (Last change date was in 2005)
Is the Application "Marketing" within the SAP Survey Suite the correct one?
I would be glad if anyone could give me tip for my problem. Thanks a lot and best regards,
Oliver

Survey Response for Marketing Attributes

Hello,
I have an e-mail that is sent out as part of a campaign. This e-mail includes a hyperlink to a website that displays the contacts Marketing attributes preferences.
This survey correctly pulls out each contacts currnt preferences for their marketing attributes.
When extra attributes are chosen on the survey and that survey is saved, the marketing attributes are not updated on the business partner record.
Is there anything extra that needs implementing to update a contacts marketing attributes when they respond by submitting the survey?
Regards
David

Thanks Mike.
Can I ask which callback function modules you are selecting for the PBO and PAI?
I have tried:
CRM_MKTCA_SURVEY_MKT_PBO
CRM_MKTCA_SURVEY_MKT_PAI
and
CRM_SVY_ACTIVITY_PBO
CRM_MKTBP_SVY_ATTRIBUTE_PAI
Neither have worked.

David
