Hi,
i´m using FM CRM_MKTBP_MAINTAIN_OW. But this is also not very good from a performance point of view.

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 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

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

How to access marketting attribute of CRM

Hi All,
I have a specific requirement for CRM 2005. Currently we are maintaining some values in Marketting Attribute of BP transaction. Now I need to access those values through some programme or FM or BADI. So, is there any way I can sccess those values in a structure. Actually I need to return those values to UI. Please also let me know is there any standard FM exists for this purpose.

Hi,
I agree what you said but if we clear the context element it giving a dump as the program is refering to the NULL reference.As I said earlier my table has no data but still I am applying Filter and then clearing the Filter node value.
It is working correct when my table is not initial.
i hope you got my point.
Please find the code below,
METHOD onactionclear_filter .
DATA: l_node          TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.          "This is context for Filter
DATA: lo_nd_nrs_status TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node. " This is context for Table
DATA lo_api_controller TYPE REF TO if_wd_controller.
DATA lo_message_manager TYPE REF TO if_wd_message_manager.
Data clr TYPE wd_this->element_nrs_status.
DATA flg TYPE wdy_boolean.
DATA l_ele TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element.
*data node_ele TYPE REF TO CL_WDR_CONTEXT_ELEMENT.
*data node_val TYPE REF TO CL_WDR_CONTEXT_NODE_VAL.
*data node type ref to CL_WDR_CONTEXT_NODE.
*data node_tab type WDR_CONTEXT_PROP_FOR_NODE_TAB.
l_node = wd_context->get_child_node( if_table_view=>wdctx_filter ).
lo_nd_nrs_status = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_nrs_status ).
CALL METHOD l_node->get_static_attributes
    IMPORTING
    static_attributes = clr.
IF clr IS INITIAL.
    lo_api_controller ?= wd_this->wd_get_api( ).
CALL METHOD lo_api_controller->get_message_manager
RECEIVING
message_manager = lo_message_manager .
report message
CALL METHOD lo_message_manager->report_error_message
EXPORTING
message_text = 'Incorrect Selection' .
   EXIT.
ENDIF.
   l_node->INVALIDATE( ).
ENDMETHOD.

How Microsoft access could possibly an SAP CRM table

ould anyone know if it is possible for a Microsoft access system to read an SAP table. If so, how? I have to implement an interface btw MS Access and SAP CRM and I am trying to see how to get it to work.

Dear Abdul!
There are probably many ways to achieve what you´re looking for. It heavily depends on several factors, which solution turns out to be the best for you. You should take into account security, data integrity and sensitivty, business context and system architecture, among others.
First of all though, you should specify wheter you want to access the SAP table for unidirectional read access only, or if you have the requirement to also update data in any SAP table (are you talking about a SAP standard table or a customer Z-table?)
If you´re looking for a straight forward solution for read-only access, you can create a custom Z* RFC-enabled function module that reads out your SAP table and returns the values to your calling application. You could also use the WebServices interfaces of your SAP WebApplicationServer, depending on your release level. Furthermore, kindly check, if there are standard BAPI´s available that contain the data you need in their return parameters.
Of course, you also could directly interface on a DBMS level between MS access and your underlying SAP DB, but most likely such a solution will never be supported in any productive environment, and for good reason. So you should look into one of the other options mentioned.
I´ll gladly provide more detail about any of the mentioned approaches, but would like to have a little more input about your requirements before, so the optimal solutions can be found.
Kind regards
Christoph
