Importance of Sales Area & Currency in Campaign

We are upgrading our SAP CRM from 5.0 to 7.0.
As per SAP the Sales area determination in campaigns is not a standard in 7.0 and to get it determined we need to use a BADI.
I would like to know what are the down stream implication of the Sales Area data & Currency in Campaigns, we are able to add products without Sales Area & Currency .
So please let me know the impacts of not having a Sales Area Data & Currency in campaigns.
Thanks in Advance

Hello,
We are currently using broadvision for our distributor netwowk search, through this broadvision we can search near by distributors and the distance from the address we give, this work on java Application.
Going further we want to replace the Broadvision and use SAP web services instead of using Broadvision as to avoid manual data entry to broadvision.
Please let me know your thoughts on usage of SAP web services and broadvision functionality.
Thanks in Advance

Hi All,
I need to create a campaign in CRM through program. For the same I have created it using the below:
1. create a Profle set using "'BAPI_PROFILESET_CREATE' with the appropriate "segmenttype".
2. create a target group using " BAPI_TARGETGROUP_CREATE" based on the Profileset guid.
3. assign Target group to Market element calling the FM"MKTPL_TGGR_ASSIGN_CREATE".
I need to assign the pricing amount , sales area data and the product to the campaign. Could you let me know the name of a Bapi/FM to update the same.
Thanks,

Hi,
Can you check if these FM's are useful:
CRM_MKTPL_GET_BP_SALES_AREAS
CRM_MKTPL_AL_FILL_PRODUCT
Hope this helps.

Importance of Sales Area Data for BP

Please give me the various reasons for having or maintaining Sales Area for a Business Partner:
_Explanation:_ What is the importance of maintaining Sales Area Data for BP.Please list out several points.
As we know Sales Area is composed of : Sales Organisation, Distribution channel, & Division.
Thanks & Regards,

These are off the top of my head. I can reply a bit later to add some more.
1) The pricing procedure (entered in the Billing Tab) which affects the LEAD, OPPT, AG, QCTR, and TA documents. Without the pricing of the product, the transactions cannot be executed and the total product value cannot be determined. Without a total dollar value, a TA doesn't make sense.
2) The S.O defines the legal terms for the product and if the BP wants to return the product they ordered, they have that information.

Displaying different currency(different from sales area data) in Web shop

Hi
I have a B2B scenario where only one sales area is maintained for the sold to party. And the currency is maintained for the sold to party is USD.
the requirement is to show a different display currency(EUR) for contact persons of the sold to party ordering through webshop.
I have tried changing the Product catalog variant currency, also added the currency 2 field in the product catalog variant.
But the currency is still being picked from the Sold to party sales area master data. I am not able to figure out any usage of currency 2.
Is there any other workaround available to display a different currency? (I am ruling out the option of Creation of new sale area as thats not possible in this scenario)
regards
Subhasis

Subhasis,
I think you have to maintain the different currencies in customer master data.
If it is not possible you can do the following method.
Create a custom field to show different currencies after selecting the currencies convert that into the currency which is maintained in the customer master data.

Error while posting Customer with Multiple sales areas using DEBMAS05.

Dear experts,
We are generating IDOCS vis SAP DS for posting Customer master. The message type used is DEBMAS and basic type is DEBMAS05. we have a requirement to create 1 customer with multiple sales areas. However, we are ending up with a strange error: "Fill all required fields SAPMF02D 0111 ADDR1_DATA-NAME1". Despite the IDOC going into status 51, the customer gets created and the 1st sales area too. the 2nd sales area however is not created! The IDOC data definitely contains Name1, otherwise the customer would not have been created in the first place.
As the error message is related to the Address data, I also explored upon exploring this erorr further on the lines of Central Address management where in the ADRMAS and DEBMAS have to be passed together(IDOC Serialiization). OSS Note (384462) provides further details about this. One Important point from the note is:
"As you have to specify the logical name of the sending system among other things, SAP is not able to make any default settings in the standard systems. When you use the serialization groups delivered as a standard by SAP, the address objects are imported before the master objects.Thus the sequence address data before master objects must only be adhered to if one of the following points applies to your application:
Such fields are set as required entry fields that are only provided by the BAS in the Customizing of the customer or vendor master.
For your customers, contact persons exist to which a private address or a different business address is assigned.".
This is not the case in our situation, as we do not have required entry fields in customizing that are only provided by the BAS, so the error is all the more confusing and I am not too sure what the cause is.
If someone have experienced the same issue before and have found a solution to it, kindly help out.

I have found the cause and solution to this problem.
This error ”Fill all required fields SAPMF02D 0111 ADDR1_DATA-NAME1” and other similar errors like “Fill all required fields SAPMF02D 0111 ADDR1_DATA-SORT1“ which occurrs during the IDOC posting when there are more than one sales area or company code occurs when the customer number range is set up for Internal numbering. This means, that the number gets generated only at the time of save and upon debugging the IDOC, we found out that after creating the customer and the first sales area/company code record, the segment E1KNA1M is cleared completely! This is the reason, it throws an error which points to a mandatory KNA1 field as missing. (Like NAME1, SORT1 etc.)
This was resolved by splitting the IDOC into 2.
The solution is to First post only the KNA1 segment and create the customer.
In the second step, pass the IDOC with all other segments along with E1KNA1M, but pass only KUNNR in E1KNA1M and the rest of the fields in E1KNA1M as “/”: you would have got the KUNNR after the first step.
Important note: This requirement to split the IDOCs does not occur when the customer number is known upfront. (Meaning cases where the customer number is externally generated) I also tested this and created a customer with external numbering and I was able to post more than 1 sales area with the same IDOC.
I noticed multiple threads with the same issue, but none of it had a concrete answer. I hope this information will be useful for anyone facing similar problems.

"sold-to party" role "sales area"

Hi,
I'm working at VAR Solution Manager 7.0 SP17.
When I create a support message from satelllite system or workcenter this support message is created successfully but when I open it at crm_dno_monitor I get two errors:
Pricing data for partner 323 could not be read.
Enter a Currency
About detail error:
Diagnosis
The attempt to read the pricing data for the current, valid business partner from the customer master was unsuccessful.
The access was carried out with sales organization 'O 50000721', distribution channel '' and division ''
If you have maintained a sales area conversion in R/3 that must be loaded per download into the CRM System (tables SMOTVTA and SMOTVKOS), this sales area is converted before the actual access.
System Response
The document is incorrect until the pricing data can be determined.
Procedure
The pricing view is probably missing for your business partner in the customer master. Maintain this data. To do this, you can call up transaction BP for maintaining the business partner. In the locator select your business partner and load it by double-clicking. Choose the "sold-to party" role. Press the "sales area" button and choose the sales area given above. Maintain the incorrect data in the billing data screen.
I know the error reason but I don't know how to solve it. About errors:
BP 323 is the sold-to party so if I go to TA bp->323->sold-to party role->button "sales area data" -> Sales area->Sales Organization any value appears. The same to Distribution Channel field
I know that this error is generated by ppoma_crm configuration so at this TA my conf is:
GRUPOTEC(organizational unit)
tab function->checkbox sales->checked Sales Organization
tab function->checkbox service->checked Service Organization
tab attributes->checked Obj. Permitted in Determination

Please could you help me?

Sold-to party 1000003 and sales area PECC/10/02 (for ZWEB) are incompatible

Hello,
We're configuring SAP CRM 7.0 ISA with ERP Sales Order.
After login into ERP webshop, the system shows the error:
"Sold-to party 1000003 and sales area PECC/10/02 (for ZWEB) are incompatible"
I've already checked the following:
1) In Shopadmin: Combination of sales Area and Doc type in Webshop- IT's OK;
2) In CRM System: Catalog used has the right sales area combination- IT's OK;
3) In ECC System: If that document (ZWEB) is alowed to that sales area- IT's OK;
Does anyone can help with that??
Thanks & Regards,
Paulo Pela

Hello Developer,
Yes, I've checked the combinations of webshop(In Shopadmin) and Product Catalog.(Sales Area)
All of them are compatible.
Hey DJ,
When you say: u201Cthe first entry maintained in the USAPPLREF tableu201Du2026.in our case, there are 2 entries for my user (PPELA3). The first one is for object type BUS1006001 and object key nr° 23263-my contact person, linked to sold-to nr° 1000003), which is the employee that I 've created in the ISAUSERADMIN.
The second entry is with object type KNA1 with object key nr° 1000003 (which is the sold-to).
Those are the only entries for my user in this table.
Does this sequence have the influence described by you? Is that what you want to say?
Other point: Does the REFERENCE CUSTOMER is important for the B2B scenario? (Our case) Since I thought it was important just for B2C scenarios, It was the same number in SHOPADMIN Webshop creation.
In the meantime, I will create a new reference customer and change the webshop parameters.
Thanks for your inputs.

Paulo Pela

Failing to determine sales area in sales order for many BP's(Sold-To Party)

Hi Experts
In SAP CRM version 4.0, when I enter the Sold-to party (BP) in the sales order transaction, for some it determines the sale area automatically and for most of the BP's it is not determining.
The Determination rule is organizational Model.
The determination rule used is 91000141 (ZORGMAN_RA = Organization based on BP and trans.)
Under Container tab in this determination rule, using simulate Rule resolution button, for some BP, it find the agent with green light when I place a BP in the Container element value field but for many BP's, it shows as No agent found.
Org. data profile used is ZORGPROF_RA (Mandatory are sales Org, Dist. Ch, Sales Off.) and has set the above determination rule.
In the Organizational model, the General attributes are country, currency, dist. Ch & division.
So, Why Org determination is working for some BP and not for all.. I've checked each field in BP transaction comparing those BP where the org detrmination is automatic with those where it is not determining...but not able to find a clue also to trace it.
we are introducting a sales order block in BP (under sales tab) for some specific Sold-To party and in webshop when these Sold-to party are tried to place an order then an error message will show that this "Sold-To party has a sales area block".
To achieve this, first the org determination should work automatically for all BP's otherwise for those BP which cannot detrmine the sales area in the sales order transaction will allow to place order (which should not be in our case)
Can any one throw some light in this case..please do ask if you need more clarification in my question.
Thank & Regards
Pravin Babu

Hello Maggie
Thanks for your reply.
I found the cause of the failure, in not determining the sales area automatically in sales transaction for some BP's.
It is due to the BP settings, under sales area view, under organization tab, by pressing 'Choose sale area" button, I can see the sales Organization has uncheck for 'sales' but it is check for all others - shipping, billing, partner, status, Organization.
It is due to -> no data mainatined for the BP under Sales tab, after mainatianing it, I can see the check by pressing the 'choose sale area under organization tab.
Now, in Order transaction, the sale area is determined automatically when I enter the BP.
So this was the reason that some BP's was able to determine the sales area automatically but not for others in the sales transaction.

Pravin

Default Sales area data during BP Account creation in WebUI

Hello everyone,
I have got a requirement where I need to populate Sales, Shipping and Billing data whenever a BP Account is created in WebUI.
Based on Sales Org selected the corresponding details as to be populated by default. This functionality exists in standard BP transaction whenever we create a BP in Sold-to-Party and select Sales Org.
Can we implement the same functionality in WebUI as well using any standard Function modules.
Please Help.
Thanks in Advance,
Naveen

Hi Pratyasha!
Thanks for your reply. I figured, that by explicitly calling the commit FM, system commit procedures are interrupted.
The thing is, that just by calling the FM for adding the sales areas does not result in those sales areas acutally created. What I mean is, that after the BAdI is executed, no sales areas are maintained for the newly created customer. All the more funny, since this exact same procedure is working for creating relationships. See following code:
READ TABLE it_changed_instances INTO ls_changed_instances INDEX 1.
* Get BP-Number for sy-user
CALL FUNCTION 'CRM_ISA_IUSER_GET_BP_TO_ALIAS'
    EXPORTING
      username         = sy-uname
    IMPORTING
      business_partner = lv_user_partner.
* Map GUID to partner number
CALL FUNCTION 'BUPA_NUMBERS_GET'
    EXPORTING
      iv_partner_guid = ls_changed_instances
    IMPORTING
      ev_partner      = lv_partner
    TABLES
      et_return       = lt_return.
CLEAR lt_return.
* Create employee responsible
CALL FUNCTION 'BUPR_RELATIONSHIP_CREATE'
    EXPORTING
      iv_partner_1_guid = ls_changed_instances
      iv_partner_2      = lv_user_partner
      iv_relationship   = 'BUR011'
      iv_date_from      = sy-datlo
      iv_date_to        = '99991231'
      iv_testrun        = ' '
      iv_x_save         = ' '
      iv_xdfrel         = 'X'
    TABLES
      et_return         = lt_return.
which is in the same BAdI and acutally results in this relationship beeing created for my newly created customer. Works fine, just not for sales areas.
I´ll be grateful for any comments on that issue!
Kind regards
Christoph

Transaction BP start in sales area - status view screen

I'm calling from outside of R/3 (from CRM).

Sales Area Data of BP unavoidable?

Hi
i'm workin in a CRM system that has been permanently disconnected from the ERP because of a spind off/management buy out
I wanted to make standard transaction type CMIC (individual contract) in CRM usable, very very basic, without pricing functionality and any extras, just a manual amount of money to be edited in a product position and that's it.
I get the error message that the currency is not there and that the sales area data of the BP is not accessable. I get these messages before providing an item oder material number. Just after providing the sold-to-party and pressing enter. No difference if i work in WebUI or in SAP GUI CRMD_ORDER
A check shows of the BP in role CRM000 sold-to-prty shows that indeed there is no sales area maintained and no sales area data accessible / all the fields are greyed out
A check in the customizing shows one distribution channel and even a division but i think the data is corrupt, the sales area choosing fields in the BP are white without content, the BPs dont have any sales area data, all fields are greyed out. So there is no way to write any sales area data into the BP, it would be needed for hundreds of BPs anyway so this is not the way.
Now the system insists on the currency in the transaction type CMIC. The currency is copied from the sales area data from the BP. It cannot be provided manually. I will have to find a way to achieve this. I just saw, that it is the same with transaction type TA, so i guess all the sales transactions will have that problem in common
What can i do? I checked the org units in the transaction. They do have an attribute 'Currency' that is filled 'EUR' but the system doesn't care
The weird thing is that opportunities (with the same BPs and the same product) can be created without errors - and there EUR is provided as currency in the item by default...?
Any ideas
Thx

If you are a functional consultant
Once the transaction's org determination is done, you can always check the information from the Header Organization tab. This is you know already. If you want to know the Sales Areas a Business Partner (sold-to) is maintained, then go the BP maintenance (Transactio BP ), select the appropriate role - in your case sold-to role of the BP. If you are already not in the Sales Area then click the Sales Area Data button in the toolbar. Then click Choose sales area button in the Sales Area section.Inthe popup, if you click the Maintained Sales Areas, you will see the actual Sales areas the customer has been extended to.
I am sure you know the above facts too. Well,
If you are a technical consultant
The Sales Org details of the transaction can be erad using the function module CRM_ORGMAN_READ-xxx There are more than one FM to read depending upon where you want to read that from - like from the order buffer (good in BAdIs when creating / chaning the order) or fromthe DB. Pick one you want.
To read the Sales area of a sold to BP, the data is available in the table CRMM_BUT_FRG0080 You can get the maintained sales area information for a given BP. You can also use the function module CRM_BUPA_FRG0080_READ
If this is not what you wanted, then you must rephrase your question for me to understand.

BP by Sales Area Data

Hello,
Could any one help me with the table where the Sales Area, Sales Org, Sales group and Sales District are stored for a BP.
Importantly I would be looking for a table where I can find a Sales district of BP.
Any inputs would be highly appreciated and rewarded.
Thanks,
KK

Hi Saurabh,
Thanks for the reply.I have checked the CRMM_BUT_SET0140 table. But is the SET_GUID same GUID for Business Partner. When I put my BP GUID in the SET_GUID it doesnot show up. So what exactly is the set GUID and where can I find the corresponding BP for that.
thanks for you reply.

KK

Sales order currency invoice currency

hello
one of our customer want to order list of materials in EURO currency and all other materials in our standard POLISH currency.
Right now this customer has thesame configuration as all others. Orders in PLN currency (polish currency) and invoices also in PLN
Right now we need to establish price list for 150 materials in EURO
then this custromer sales orders should be in EURO (not like currently in PLN)
however to this orders invoices should be in POLISH currency
so 1 customer need to has price list for 150 materials in EUR
orders for this materials should be in EUR
invoice in reference to that order shoud be calculated in PLN (polish currency)
how to do that ?

Hi There
Seems like an interesting scenario. U can try a couple of things
1: If your business allows create the customer in an additional sales area and maintain the currency as EURO in the master data and restrict his purchase for the 150 materials to this sales area only.
2: Have your ABAPer custom build a tab in transaction VD51 (Customer material info record) for Currency, maintain the customer/material/currency info for this customer and material. Once you maintain the record in this transaction it will supercede any record at customer or material level.
These are just suggestions, may not be the best ones but worth trying.

Difference between business area and sales area

Hi
I am swetha i have one doubt
1) what is the buisiness area and what purpose we use the business area
2) what is sales area and what purpose we use the sales area
3)what is the main Difference between business area and sales area.
Regards
Swetha

Hii..
Business Areas in SAP are used to differentiate transactions originating from different points/lines/locations in business. Let me give some examples to elucidiate:-
A company (say, ABC) is a huge company and has a variety of businesses under it. Let us say that it typically operates in 3 different domains like machinery manufacturing, trading and assembling of machine parts.
There are 2 options here now -
1. Either create different company codes for the 3 business operations (which would be the easiest and require no creativity)
or
2.) Create each of these business lines into business areas (the better option).
The advantages of using the second option is:
1. You can use these business areas if other company codes require the same areas
2. The configuration is simpler as in case of company code, you would require to go through the entire configuration of creating Chart of Accounts, Fiscal Year variants, posting periods variants and so on. In the business area option, you just need to attach it to the company code and the rest of the details in Business area is attached by default from the company code you are using it in.
3. Using the options in controlling (EC-PCA, Enterprise Controlling, Profit Centre Accounting), you can even draw up Balance Sheets and PL statements for your business areas and hence this is used for management accounting in some companies (like HP, Dell, etc) when it wants to know the operating profits for different business areas/lines.
The above was an example when the company wanted to separate entries according to the lines it operates in... the other case could be when it wants to find out profitability during its operations in cities and differentiates these cities into Business
Areas...
Business Areas are not much relevant in FI but are much more relevant in CO.
Hope this clears.
What is mySAP SD?
The SAP sales and distribution is part of the logistics module that support your customers, starting from quotations, sales order and all the way towards billing the customer. It is tightly integrated with the MM and PP functional modules. It allows companies to input their customer sales price, check for open orders and forecast etc.
