Infoset as datasource for segmentation

Hi,
When I create a datasource of type Infoset, I entered name of the infoset as CRM_MKTTG_BP_ADDR, but there is a field Business Partner, should I enter BUT000-PARTNER (BP No.) or BUT000-PARTNER-GUID (BP GUID) in it? What is the difference between the two?
Regards,
Monica

Hi Monica,
You have to set in this field this: <b>BUT000-PARTNER</b>, this is the number of the partners u are going to filter in the segment builder.
The <b>BUT000-PARTNER_GUID</b> is a field that is a identifier (like an id for the tables) of a partner. In CRM the guid is an identifier of a product, a partner in this case, a document, an order...
For example, the product has a guid also, product_guid.
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Mon.

ELM as datasource for segmentation

Hi,
Has anybody worked on scenario to use ELM as datasource for segmentation?
When i try to create a datasource n TA: CRMD_MKTDS, I can see the option to select ELM in origin type field. But there is no field to select External list.
My requirement is very simple: I want to segment the prospects acquired .
All inputs are appreciated.
Many Thanks,
Shaik

Hi,
The BP's are located in External file ( spreadsheet ) I want to segment these BP's and then create a TG. Thats my requirement.
In SAP CRM only ELM supports upload of an External file ( as far as i know ) . Hence i created an External list from my spreadsheet and i want to use this list to create Datasource and then an attribute list.
We can easily use this Attribute list in Segment builder to create TG. thats my idea. but in CRMD_MKTDS its not allowing me to create Datasource for ELM scenario.
Please provide your inputs. How can we segment BP's from External list?
Thank you.

BW query as datasource for segmentation

Hi,
At help.sap.com the following is posted:
"Only use queries that are based on InfoCubes. Queries that are based on ODS objects and BI InfoSets are only partially supported." (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm50/helpdata/en/af/d0efa709f811d4b2d70050da3ee986/frameset.htm)
Does anyone of you know what partially means in this case? When is it supported and when not??
Thanks, Camilla

Hi
I think partly means the SAP BW is linked to the CRM Server partly by the Middleware Broker and partly by direct RFC calls and BAPIs.
The BW Adapter extracts data in to SAP BW.
I hope this helps

Using InfoSets as Data Source for segmentation

Hi Experts,
I'd like to use my own InfoSet as Data Source for segmentation.
The goal is, for example:
Select all BPs who have Leads (Just simple one to describe my question).
So I've created new InfoSet which joined tables:
CRMD_ORDERADM_H
CRMD_LINK
CRMD_PARTNER.
The question is how should I restrict the InfoSet to use only object type "CRM Lead" (CRMD_ORDERADM_H = 'BUS2000108') and partner function "Activity partner" (CRMD_PARTNER-PARTNER_FCT = '00000009')?
I've managed to do this by small addtitional coding in Record Processing in the InfoSet as:
CHECK crnd_orderadm_h-object_type EQ 'BUS2000108'
AND crmd_partner-partner_fct EQ '00000009'.
But it seems that it's not the best way (and no the best practise's one) because all records from the joining are processed and for each of the record this conditions are checked.
It'd be better, I think, to put this conditions as selection options. But it doesn't work (or I didn't do it properly). What I've done is: I've made them as selection criterions in my InfoSet and put default values for them. But segment builder didn't use them (default values) as I can see.
Appreciated for your any advices.

Hi Monica,
Ofcourse query will be written by BW consultants but the requirement should be passed on by Business. CRM Functional Consultant responsibility is to understand the Business requirement and should guide BW consultants. Also make sure that BW system is in the CRM landscape for such requirement.

How to calculate age for a business partner for segmentation purposes?

How do I calculate the age of a BP based on this person's maintained birthday on BP master data? I need to use this information to segment based on age groups, eg age 30-40, age 25 and below etc.
I did quite a bit of search on this forum but couldn't find anything. I know I've seen them somewhere before. Would appreciate any help and will reward points. Thanks!

Hi Jo,
You can achieve this by using infosets.
Create Infoset using direct read of table BUT000.
In infoset select extras for additional field button and give following code for calcualting the difference between Birthdate and system date.
CALL FUNCTION 'FIMA_DAYS_AND_MONTHS_AND_YEARS'
    EXPORTING
      i_date_from          = but000-BIRTHDT
      I_KEY_DAY_FROM       =
      i_date_to            = sy-datum
        I_KEY_DAY_TO         =
        I_FLG_SEPARATE       = ' '
   IMPORTING
     e_days               = test
        E_MONTHS             =
        E_YEARS              =
Create a datasource with Business partner GUID and assign it attributelist.
Choose the additional field for filter criteria.
Hope it solves your problem.
Reward points if it helps.

Creation of a Marketing Profile Set based on the standard CRM_MKTTG_BP_BIRTHDATE Infoset thru the WebUI Segment Builder

Objective: Creation of a Marketing Profile Set based on the standard CRM_MKTTG_BP_BIRTHDATE Infoset thru the WebUI Segment Builder.
Problems: Standard CRM_MKTTG_BP_BIRTHDATE Infoset DOES NEVER RETURN ANY RESULTS on the segmentation builder of the WebUI client (no matter the filter you specify).
Other cases: However if we create a new Data source with data "Extraction from Query" (transaction RS02) based on this standard CRM_MKTTG_BP_BIRTHDATE Infoset and we test the functionality using transaction RSA3, IT DOES RETURN RESULTS (using the same filters as in the segmentation builder)! Of course the segmentation builder works with other attribute lists.
NEW: IF WE DON’T ESPECIFY ANY SEGMENTATION BASE IN THE PROFILE GROUP, IT DOES RETURN RESULTS!!! (GO TO THE END OF THE DOCUMENT FOR DETAILS)
Steps followed:
Review Standard Infoset CRM_MKTTG_BP_BIRTHDATE (Transaction SQ02).Review Data Reading Program code: do we have to change the standard code? We have only remove the "BREAK-POINT" statement.
Creation of a Data source based on the standard CRM_MKTTG_BP_BIRTHDATE Infoset (Transaction CRMD_MKTDS).
Creation of an Attribute List based on that standard Data source and selection the Birth date as a filter in the Attribute list (Transaction CRMD_MKTDS).
On the segment builder of the WebUI set any filter (Example: “TODAY”).

With other attribute lists it takes some time to process, no matter the filter or the attribute list you use. However if we create a new Data source with data "Extraction from Query" (transaction RS02) based on this standard CRM_MKTTG_BP_BIRTHDATE Infoset and we test the functionality using transaction RSA3, IT DOES RETURN RESULTS (with “today” filter and other)! So it seems that the problem has to do with the segment builder, not the Infoset.
Result: it never return any results no matter the filter you specify.
Other cases:

It seems that the standard Infoset doesn’t work by itself with Segmentation Basis. Two SAP notes have been applied and a new Field Group has been added to the Infoset (in order to distint the Segmentation Base).
CRMT_MKTTG_IS_BIRTHDATE-MGRGUID

2007687:Segmentation InfoSet queries saved with incorrect Master Group
For that reason we had to create a new Infoset based on the standard CRMT_MKTTG_IS_BIRTHDATE, but adding this new Field MGRGUID to the Group Fields.

Creation of DataSource for FlatFile Interface in BI 7

Hi Y'all!
Can anyone please give me urgent assistance in creating/defining a DataSource for the FlatFile Scenario in BI 7.0. I've been trying to no avail. I certain I am doing this incorrectly, as such I seek your assistance. Can anyone please be so kind as to give me a step-by-step walkthrough of the specific individual steps (in sequence) in creating/defining DataSources... Also can this be accepted as a character (08-MAY-07)?
Much thanks!
Philips

Hi,
The following step can help you..
1. create a info source and assign the data source -
2. select data source as PC File ( give any name tech & desc)
3. create a info source structure by include all individual info objects / har. keyfig
    those are available in your file
4. you can always take the reference of the info objects from the cube/ODS as to
    make info source staructure easy
5. map the corresponding info objects in the trasfer structure
6. save and activate the info source
7. go to your info provider cube/ODS and right click - select - create update rules
    select the name of the file data source name as given above
8. map them as defult one-to-one mapping until other wise you have some require
    ment in data manipulation through update rules.
9. save and activate.
10. come to the info source - create a info package - select source as .CSV file
     and preview it before you actually load.
11. as far as date is concern in your falt file..select the entire column of the date
     then goto-format column-select 'customize' then put format as 000000 (six
     zeros ) for 0calmonth.
12. when you lookat the date at infoprovider it shows like 20070508 but
      when you execute in a query it displays its text as 08-May-2007
I hope it would help you to understand and get your purpose solve.
Thanks=points.

ORA-01658: unable to create INITIAL extent for segment in tablespace

NEW REPOSITORY INSTALLATION ERROR!!
I want to install a new Repository using Oracle9iR9.2.0.1 and iDS10g on windowsXP Professional the same machine.
After running all the SQL scripts ( ckqa,ckvalqa,ckcreate,ckreport) with success to installing a new Repository on my Database using "the Scripts Method",I start the Repository Administration Utility( RAU) to scheck the priveleges and so on.
After pressing the Install button in the RAU:
-I take public synonyms
-I scheck the box for "Support Designer Objects", then
-The Repository size is Medium
-I have not change the defauft Tablespace of the Repository_Manager names TEMPORARY_TABLES to store the index and table of System Data....Diagram Data.
After Starting, the Installation began an stop by installing some Tables like schown :

I then try to resolve it by schecking and changing the Values of INITIAL_VALUE and NEXT_VALUE in the ckparams.txt to 500k.I change the Values of TEMPORARY_TABLES(10214 to 51200k) and TEMPORARY_INDEXES from (20000 to 100000k).Then I run the scripts @ckparams.txt, @ckvalqa, @ckcreate but
-pressing the Scheck Privileges Button on the RAU still give me 106k for the INITIAL_ and NEXT_VALUE.
-And the installato still stop with the same Error.
Question: How schould I resolve this Configuration?
You could respond in ENGLICH, GERMAN or FRENCH
Thank you for your Help!

You are running into database errors. You should refer to the database documentation on how to adjust the size your tablespaces. The online Designer installation guide will advise you as to the sizes of tablespaces you require.

KEU5 – It does not found senders (emisor) for segment.

Dear Expert Sap
Please, I try to explain the following scenary :
I had created one purcharse using ME21N transaction, that it had one service and imputation on cost center (CeCo)
I had created document using ML81N and accepting.
I can lookup posting document FI and it is correct.
I can lookup posting document profit center cost
But it did not create posting on COPA. Because It did not have configuration or specified OKB9: Cost Ctr (KSTAR) assigned - > Cost element master (KOSTL).
When I am excuting this report S_ALR_87013611 - Cost Centers: Actual/Plan/Variance.
I are seing income as statistical posting under cost centres.
Cost centres cannot have 'real' income postings. It is correct.
Because Cost Ele category is equal “12” and (Cost Ele category 11 or 12) are posted AS statistical on cost centers.
Finally:
Bussines need that "posted as statistical on cost centers" => it should create on COPA.
We are thinking that we can using a cycle in KEU5 transacction.
But whem we are executing transaction KEU5 son it get this message:
– It does not found senders (emisor) for segment.
Unfortunately, I am not found one note oss.
Could you check this and recommend the best option? or could you recommend any note oss, please?
All your recomendations will be welcome.
Thanks a lot for your recomendation and help.
Best regards,
Gustavo Hermoza

Thank you very much for your answer, Ronghua!!!
I am thinking about your recomendation about using substitucion (OKC9) to derivate the PAOBJNR as reael account assignment.
It will probably be good idea but Step(Okc9) does not derivate or move characteristics to RKE_GET_ACCTNR Function. Because we dont not know this characteristics.
We had reviwed cost line items for cost center and we are seeing that all document are Material Document and this document dont have fields to derivate characteristics.
Another alternative:
Transaction KA02 change category element.
Field change CElem Category is not possible (transaction data already exists)
Diagnosis
To ensure the consistency of existing data, you can only change object CElem Category if no transaction data exists in the change period; that is, neither plan data nor actual data has been posted.
As transaction data already exists, it is not possible to change objects in this time period.
Procedure
If you still want to change the object, select a suitable change interval by choosing "Edit -> Analysis period...".
I want to show this post it is good.

DataSource for FAGLFLEXT and BSEG, or New Table in ECC6?

need to create an extractor to have all the information of FAGLFLEXT, because we need to keep the ledger information and the split of the information. However, we need to add 13 fields contained in BSEG.
Therefore we thought to reads the line items table FAGLFLEXA, and then enhace it throught BSEG table.
However, since we are using ECC6 and BI7. It is not support the creation of DataSources for FAGLFLEXA throught FAGLBW03.
Is it an option to incorporate all fields into FAGLFLEXT.
Can we creat a new table group based on FAGLFLEXT, and then adding the coding block extensions to that table -
how does new g/l and the new table group work in parallel? Which is the procedure to do it?
Documentation says we can create a new table group based on FAGLFLEXT --- its the how does it work in conjuction part...for example...the new g/l handles document splitting and one other thing georg referenced last night...will the split documents go into our new table group?
BSEG does not have the document splitter information that we need (it's incomplete data). It's missing profit centers on many items, it's missing the proper split of transactions.
Thanks for your comments.

Here is more information about this post.
Client situation: Our client is implementing ECC 6 and is using the "New-GL" features. Because of business requirements, the coding block has been extended (not insignificantly - 18 extra fields at the moment) to accommodate legal, regulatory and management reporting. The reporting solution includes standard ECC reporting (e.g. report writer, report painter reports) as well as feeds to BW (BI 7).
The Challenge: Our understanding is that adding all of the coding block extensions to the New-GL tables (ie. FAGLFLEXA and FAGLFLEXT) may lead to performance degradation in the ECC system. However, we still need to accommodate the requirement to report by the additional dimensions that are not currently included in the New-GL, so our challenge has been to find a solution that minimizes performance issues, while still allowing us to have all the necessary dimensions with which to do the required reporting.
What we would like to know: How have you handled this in similar situations?
Have you added to the New-GL tables? How many fields? Performance issues encountered?
Have you created additional table group(s) based on the New-GL and then modified that structure to have the new fields? How does the additional table group work co-incident with New-GL (e.g. does the additional table group receive document splitting information?)?
Have you created custom extractors for BW? On what basis (we understand that FAGFLEXA cannot be created as a datasource to feed BW)?

No. If its transactions across multiple databases you should use different datasources.

Using a View as the DataSource for a Matrix

Does anyone know if it is possible to use a view as the datasource for a matrix? For example, I have created a view named 'VW1' with 4 columns (1 being ItemCode). Here is the code that tries to set this view as the datasource for a matrix:
tableName = "VW1";
dbDataSource = sboForm.DataSources.DBDataSources.Add(tableName);
// Add the bind columns
column = columns.Add(COL_VALUE_UID, SAPbouiCOM.BoFormItemTypes.it_EDIT);
column.DataBind.SetBound(true, tableName, "ItemCode");
This last line of this code hangs but if I put a try around it, the GetLastError does not return anything. Is it because views cannot be used as datasources or is there something else I am missing?

Hi David,
You can use a view as a matrix datasource if you use UserDataSources instead of DBDataSources.
UserDataSource DSSubJobID = form.DataSources.UserDataSources.Add("SubJobID", SAPbouiCOM.BoDataType.dt_LONG_NUMBER, 12);
Col = GridMain.Columns.Item(ColSubJobID);
Col.DataBind.SetBound(true, "", DSSubJobID.UID);
You then need to manually set the value of the UserDataSource e.g:
Reader = Command.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.SequentialAccess);
GridMain.Clear();
int RowNo = 1;
while (Reader.Read())
   DSSubJobID.Value = SubJobID.ToString();
   //set other user datasources here
   //add a row the matrix
   GridMain.AddRow(1, -1);

Can a web service be used as the datasource for a View Object?

Has anyone used a web service as the datasource for a View Object?
I am trying to do the same thing as "Publishing BC4J Components as a Web Service" example, except I want to recreate the View Objects on the client so that I can iterate through them and display them on a web page.
I probably have two choices:
1. Use the web service as the datasource.
2. Use a file as the datasource with no data and then populate the View Objects from the XML from the Web Service.
Please advise.
Thank you.
Richard Catlin
SAIC

You can adapt the examples provided in the BC4J Toy Store demo for how to build a programmatically-populated view object to create a view object that fetches its data from a web service.
The methods that you need to override are the same for any kind of programmatically-populated view object.
