How to use LSMW on CRM for bulk master data creation?

Hello Experts,
I need your help to able to use LSMW on CRM for bulk master data creation. Below is described my detailed requirement; -
We have CRM 2007 integrated with SAP ISU (ECC6.0). As per business process all Business Master Data (BP details, Business Agreement details etc) and Technical Master Data (Connection Object, PoD etc.) is created in CRM and then it is replicated in ISU. We are going to start Assembly Test soon. Now we need to have all master data in place. Tool we want to use is LSMW.
Now can you help me right from scratch on how to use LSMW for bulk master data creation in CRM?
Please give me documents / links etc that is relevant.

Hi,
I have looked into your query.
These are some information which might be useful to you.
What is LSMW?
Legacy System Migration Workbench or LSMW is SAP standard program that can be used to easily load / change master data or transactions in SAP without any programming at all. It can be used to upload data at cutover, such as: open orders, contracts, materials, vendors, stock on hand. It can also be used in a production system to make changes to existing data. Very limited authorization checks are available on the transaction, so the use of it must be very well controlled.
One input file can be used to create all the views of the material master. For all the material types. Even if different views and fields are used for the different materials.
Steps to take
1. Create text file with data to be loaded
2. Set up and run LSMW
The following link will provide good information on LSMW Idoc method:
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ad/2d54a41d7011d2b42e006094b944c8/frameset.htm]
I hope this helps.

Integrating MDG in Financial Self Service for Asset Master Data creation in CRM portal

Hello Experts,
I have a requirement in CRM box.
If we navigate to SAP menu we have Self Service -> Financial Internal Self Services.
Then a portal page will open in browser. There we have link Master Data Services.
In that link we have standard sublinks for some financial master data creation.
This is coming from LPD_CUST(Launchpad Customizing) -> FINISS. In this Master Data Services we have to create new link for "Create Asset".
We can't go for Transactional iView. We have to choose Application Type as Web Dynpro ABAP only as present in standard links.
And in the Application USMD_ENTITY_VALUE2 should be present as generic UI component.
But after that what needs to be done for asset I am not getting. We have to do some config for component for web dynpro component, entity types, UIBB etc. InSPRO also, Cross-Application components ->Process and tools for Enterprise Applications -> MDG -> General Settings also we have to do something. I have collected info in isolated way.
How to approach for this. Please suggest.
Regards,
Somnath Mitra

your post is rubbish, substitutions and validations are in use in document posting, not for master data creation. Even the OP told this, when he asked his question...

Step by step instruction for Using LSMW Recoding method for Material Master

Guys,
Can some one explain step by step procedure for uploading the materials master data to R/3 by using LSMW Recoding method. By the time you reply I will go through the rule of uploading the data..
Thanks guys,
Dhanu.

Hi,
The Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW) is a tool recommended by SAP that you can use to transfer data once only or periodically from legacy systems into an R/3 System.
The LSM Workbench covers the following steps:
(1)Read the legacy data from one or several files (e.g. spreadsheet tables, sequential files)
(2)Convert the data from source format to target format
(3)Import the data using standard interfaces (Batch Input, Direct Input, BAPI, IDoc).
The Steps for LSME are:
Example: Customer Master upload:
LSMW to Update Customer Master Records with Transaction Recording
Call Legacy System Migration Workbench by entering transaction code LSMW. Every conversion task is grouped together as Project / Subproject / Object structure. Create a Project called LSMW_DEMO and a Subproject as CUSTOMERS and Object as CUST_REC
Step 1: Maintain Object attributes
In this example, you will be updating the customer master records with the help of recording a transaction (XD02). Choose radio button Batch Input Recording and click on the recording overview icon to record the R/3 transaction. Enter the Recording name as XD02_REC, the description as Customer Master Updates Recording, and the transaction code as XD02.
Step 2. Maintain Source Structures
Give a name and a description to the source structure
Step 3. Maintain Source Fields
In this step, you need to list what fields are present in the source structure. The easiest way is to click on u2018Table Maintenanceu2019 icon to enter Fieldname, Type and Length for each field
Step 4: Maintain Structure Relations
Execute a step to u2018Maintain Structure Relationsu2019. Since, there is only one Source and Target Structure, the relationship is defaulted automatically.
Step 5: Maintain field mapping and conversion rules
Field RF02D-D0310 represents that you chose u2018Sales viewu2019 for the customer Master screen accordingly its value should be set to X. Keep your cursor on field RF02D-D0310 and click on Constant rule icon to choose the constant value of u2018Xu2019.
If your source file already has the field value, you choose rule u2018Source Fieldu2019.
Keep cursor on field u2018KUNNRu2019 and click on u2018Assign Source fieldu2019 icon to choose source field CUSTOMER from structure XD02S
Step 6: Maintain fixed values, translations, user-defined routines
You can also maintain re-usable translations and user-defined routines, which can be used across conversion tasks. In this case, that step is not required.
Step 7: Specify files
In this step, we define how the layout of the input file is. The input file is a [Tab] delimited with the first row as field names. It is present on my PC (local drive) as C:\XD02.txt.
Step 8: Assign files
Execute step u2018Assign Filesu2019 and the system automatically defaults the filename to the source structure.
Step 9: Read data
In this step, LSMW reads the data from the source file (from your PCu2019s local drive). You have the option to read only selected rows and convert data values to Internal format.
Step 10: Display read data
This step is optional. If required, you can review the field contents for the rows of data read.
Step 11: Convert data
This is the step that actually converts the source data (in source format) to a target format. Based on the conversion rules defined, source fields are mapped to target fields.
Step 12: Display Converted data
Again this is an optional step to view how the source data is converted to internal SAP format
Step 13: Create batch input session
Once the source data is converted in an internal format, you can create a batch session to process updates.
Step 14: Run Batch Input Session
You can execute the BDC session by Run Batch input session. Executing a batch input session is a standard SM35 transaction for managing BDC sessions. Once you have successfully executed the batch input session, the customer master records are updated in the system. You can confirm this by viewing the customer master records (XD03).

Hierarchy using a flat file for a master data load.

Can anyone please tell me the steps involved in creating a hierarchy in BI 7.0. and loading the data using a flat file into the created hierarchy? I have seen some posts and weblogs but they were not helpful and i have been getting some errors which i dont know how to resolve.
Can someone please give a clear steps and procedure for this?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Naveen

Hi,
The flat file is generated in application server by executing an ABAP program in SE38.
This ABAP program contains the logic to generate hierarchy.
In our case we used a DSO to store employee & supervisors.
This program generated a flat file in tmp folder in application server
In our case, To load this flat file we created an Infosource on our master data using direct update using RSA1old Tcode
after Infosource is created right click on the InfoSource and click on Assign DataSource.
Give the Source System name
When you open this Info source you can select data source as YHIEROBJ_HIER and then activate the InfoSource.
create an Info Package to load the Hierarchy. Right click on the PC Files (Source System) and click on u201CCreate InfoPackage".
Under Extraction tab give the flat file name which is generated by the ABAP program in AL11.
Select the hierarchy which you want to load. Also, you can rename the Hierarchy after loading it. The update method is selected as u201CFull Updateu201D.
Logic for Generation of flat file & ABAP Program:
Flat file structure:
Node ID     InfoObject     NodeName     Parent ID     Date To      Date From     Language
u2022     u201CNode IDu201D indicates the unique number which defines the Node.
u2022     u201CInfoObject u201Cgives the name of the InfoObject which is assigned to this Node ID.
u2022     u201CNodeNameu201D is the name you specify to that Node.
u2022     u201CParent IDu201D is the Node ID to which the Current Node ID reports to.
u2022     u201CDate Tou201D and u201CDate Fromu201D are taken for time references (You can set them constant).
u2022      u201CLanguageu201C is set to English (E).
The program Logic can be :
Declare the hierarchy structure
Get the data from DSO into internal table
Read all the EMP values into NodeName Field of the table
Build lookup table for Parent Node ID
Fill Parent Node ID field
Append this data to work area & then to another internal table
You need to declare the selection parameter as SSFILE1
& use following code to write back the file
OPEN DATASET SSFILE1 FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT
     MESSAGE MSG.
IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
    MESSAGE E008(ZBW1) WITH MSG.
ENDIF
Populate the output from that internal table into final work area.
Transfer this final work area to the ssfile1 which is the desired output file.
and   CLOSE DATASET SSFILE1.
When this program is executed, selection screen asks for the name of file
Enter the desired file name & execute
flat file would be generated in the Application server now.
To view the File, Go to Transaction AL11. Search the directory /tmp. Double click on this directory.
This opens the list of flat files under this directory. Double click on the file name.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Rashmi.

Mobile number is not uploading for BP master data creation using BAPI ?

Hi,
I am creating Business Partner Master data in ISU/CCS using the BAPI "BAPI_ISUPARTNER_CREATEFROMDATA". Uploading data from Excel.
Successfully uploading and creating new Business Partners apart from Mobile number, nick name,middle name, and name of birth fields.
There are 2 issues i am facing:
1. There is no field name is called Mobile number (data element AD_MBNMBR1) in structures of that BAPI.
2. Nick, middle and birth names fields are there, but they are under the Expand(+ symbol) in FPP2 (FPP1) Tcode. That's why these fields are not uploading.
How to upload them?
Please help me out.
Thanks
Sarayu Parvathaneni.

Hello Roopesh,
Ususally, to make the BAPI update the database, you have to run BAPI
BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT after BAPI_PRDSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI2 is executed.
In se37-> You may insert
BAPI_PRDSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI2
BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT
in the Menu-->function module >test>test sequences.
Also as Mani said, if the update is successful the return parameter will be '0'.

Hi
Please Guide me how to use ECATT , when we Upload the Master data in SAP Best Practice ,not in SAP R/3 ( note : for SAP Best Practice system only) through ECATT.
Can anybody have any idea about this
Guide me
Regards
Roobal

ECATT can be used by using transaction code SECATT.
This tool is used for data uploading and regression testing.
You need to prepare a scenario for regression testing.
You should create
1. Test Script
2. Test Data
3. Test Configuration.
If you want to upload master data, LSMW is the best tool.

How will i configure partner determination for customer master

how will i configure partner determination for customer master data.

hi
Check this
BUSINESS PARTNERS AND PARTNER DETERMINATION
In the partner determination procedure you can determine whether partner functions can or should occur in a partner object (Customer Master, Sales Document, Item Category etc.) For each object, in which partner function can be created, you can define partner procedures. This also means that
For Customer Master
For Sales Documents
For Sales Documents and Billing Documents: for items
We can define our partner determination procedure for each of these levels as shown below. In Blue are given the ones wherein the Partner Procedures are assigned to the Partner Objects
Customer Master Account Group
Sales Document Header Sales Document Type
Sales document Item Item Category in sales
Delivery Delivery Type
Billing Header Billing Type
Billing Item Billing Type
Sales Activity Sales Activity type
By assigning a procedure you determine for which account groups (for the customer master), which sales document types (for sales documents) and for which item categories this procedure would be valid.
In the partner determination procedure you can determine for each partner function
whether the partner function is an obligatory partner function
whether the partner function can be changed in the document
BUSINESS PARTNER FUNCTION
By assigning a business partner function to a partner you can determine which functions the partner fulfils in the business process. Partner Functions are classified using partner type. The partner type represents the roles played by the business partner within the business transaction.
Following partner functions exist in the standard process of Sales and Distribution
Partner Type Customer
Sold-to Party, Ship-to Party, Bill-to Party, Payer and Sold-to Party authorized to release against a contract. You can define the sold-to party authorized to release against a contract in the partner screen of a contract. This partner may only schedule orders with reference to this contract, even when he is not the sold-to party authorized against a contract.
Partner Type Contact Person
Contact persons are natural persons whom you must contact at the customers for business processing (e.g. purchasers) Contact person can be created directly in customer master record.
Partner Type Vendor
A forwarding agent is an example of a business partner on the credit side, who is included in a sales process. If you commission a particular forwarding agent for deliveries to a specific customer, you can define the forwarding agent in the customer master record as the partner.
The other possible partner functions on the credit side in the sale process are interpreters, auditors etc. The forwarding agent is an agent who performs transportation services. This includes organizing the shipment, delivery and receipt of the goods, arranging the carrier services and handling the customs issues.
Partner Type Personnel
Employee Responsible
Sales Personnel
You can enter an employee from your firm as the person responsible:
In the Customer Master If the employee is normally responsible for processing transactions with this customer.
In the Sales Document If the employee is responsible for processing the Business Transaction.
STEP WISE PROCESS FOR PARTNER DETERMINATION PROCEDURE
Sales and Distribution->Basic Functions->Partner Determination->set Up Partner Determination->Set up Partner Determination for Customer Master.
First go to OVT0 create customer account groups. Here you make new entries, click whether it is a one time customer, description. Also you can do the field selection here for general data, co. code data and sales area data.

Assign partner function to account group i.e SP,SH, BP, PY to account group (debit side ). Sales and Distribution->Basic Functions->Partner Determination->Assign Partner Functions on the debit side to account Groups.
Then create Partner Determination Procedure.
Assign the Partner Determination Procedure to Partner Function.
Then finally assign the Partner Determination Procedure to acc group.
Important Points in Business Partners and Partner Determination Procedure
Partner relationship maintained/defined in the customer master is proposed automatically in the document header when you create a sales document.
In customizing we can decide whether several partners can be assigned to one partner function in the customer master.
In sales documents, the system is configured so that only one partner can be assigned to each partner function.
We can define partners at item level in the sales documents.
Business Partners that are defined at the header level however cannot be changed at the item level.
You can prohibit anyone from changing a partner that has already been entered in a sales document.
It is also possible to manually change or enter the address of a partner, such as the Ship-to Party. This change does not affect the master record.

How to use LSMW using the IDOC to upload and maintain cost center group

Hi Everyone,
Is there anyone who knows how to use LSMW using the IDOC functions instead of the recording. I wanted to upload the alternative cost center group I created in the system.
reply would be greatly appreciated
Warm Regards

Hi Praveen,
There is a risk trying to migrate data directly into standard tables because this can generate database inconsistences or wrong inserted data according to what is customized in the target system. I do not recommend migrate like this.
With LSMW you use objects like direct input programs, idocs, bapis and recorded batch input. Try to create a project and use an standard object for your data. Also, check in SXDA transaction (Goto-->DX programs) if there is a standard program for your data.
Anyway, if you want to upload data directly to tables, read below thread:
["UPLOAD CSV FILE";

How to use transaction SOST & SCOT for checking Email performance ?
what exactly as CRM Functional we have to do in above transaction .
Please guide me . what is significance of these transaction ?
Regards,
Anup Reche

Hi Anup,
Transaction SOST is used to view the status of the sent mails from SAP.
You cna filter the mails sent by a particular user, on a specified date range and time.
You can list the mails in the status Waiting, Error, Sent or Transmitted.
You can also go to the log of the mail and see its details and can also open the mail sent by the user.
You can add the filters as per your requirement.
Transaction SCOT is SAP Connect used to make connections from SAP to external applications.
You cna configure sending of external mails in SCOT by specifying the SMTP host and port to be used.
Hope this gives you a basic idea of the 2 transactions.

How to Use the same iview for both KM End User and the KM Administrator

Hi friends,
*This is my scenario :* How to Use the same iview for both KM End User and the KM Administrator but with different Context
Menu Options.
i followed these steps but im getting same context menu for both KM End User and the KM Administrator .
Assign the role Content Administrator to the user km_admin. This is needed so that km_admin can change
the presentation settings for the KM Folder u201EReports_kmFolder‟.
Now, login with user km_admin. Navigate to the Km Folder reports_kmFolder through Content Administration
-> Km Content. Click on Details link of the folder reports_kmFolder.
Go To Settings -> Presentation. Click on the tab u201ESettings for You‟-> Click on button u201ESelect Profile‟.
Select the radio button corresponding to u201Elayout Set‟, and choose u201EConsumerExplorer‟ from the dropdown.
Click u201EOK‟.
Select both the check boxes corresponding to Items Affected as shown above, and click u201ESave‟
Now, remove the u201ESuper Administrator‟ role from the user km_admin and login with this user.
How rto resolve this????
Regards,
Prasad.

Hello Prasad,
Most likely the user km_admin still has system principal roles assigned, even though you removed the Super Admin role, you should check that this user doesn't have any other admin roles, otherwise it will be considered a System Principal user and will therefore still have access to all content. For more information see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/19/56f28fbd4e11d5993b00508b6b8b11/frameset.htm
Try creating a new user with just read access to the content and you should see that it will not be able to make any changes etc.

Lorcan.
