INITIAL DOWNLOAD NOT SUCCESSFUL!

Question

Hello All,
I am replicating the product categories(in SRM terminology) i.e. initia load of Material groups from backend(R/3) into the SRM system through the CRM Middleware.
At the r/3 side in the tcode SMQ1(Outbound Queue),i am getting the status as STOP while at SRM side(i.e. CRM middleware) in the tcode SMQ2(Inbound queue),i get the status READY.Also when I go in for the transaction of Monitoring Initial Load (R3AM1),I get the status as RUNNING.
Can anyone please tell me how much time it takes to download these objects because I had started the Initial Load for 4 Objects out of which the 1st object took 4 hrs to be downloaded!Please help.
Thanks & regards,
Disha D

Hi Disha,
In this program, you have to set some values according to the configuration you made in SRM and R/3.
You must choose 'BBP without CRM' and you must enter the consumer name chosen by you in field 'User' (for example, 'CRM').
After running the program (not in test mode...), you get a screen that displays the results of the program.
As i do not know what steps you have done, could you please list them ?
Step 1 : CRMCONSUM , CRMSUBTAB, CRMRFCPAR and CRMPAROLTP tables
Step 2 : program 'BBP_PRODUCT_SETTINGS_MW'
Step 3 : Transaction <SMOEAC>
Create a R/3 site for the backend and allocate the backend RFC destination as the attribute
Step 4 : Then control the status of the sites using transaction <SMWP> in the EBP with middleware menu : portal-> runtime info-> adapter status->parameters-> sites.
All the status should be green.
Step 5 : select the data you want to replicate. The lines that are not set to inactive, indicate your choice for the replication.
From the Enterprise Buyer easy access menu, choose Middleware -> R/3 Data Exchange -> Initial Download -> Object Management -> R3AC3 - Customizing Objects.
Step 6 : initial download
Step 7 : Go to Monitor Download object or transaction R3AM1 to check that the replication was successful
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Yann
