Integration CRM 7.0 with ERP 5.0

Hi,
I want upgrade my actual system CRM to 7.0, what about the integration with my system ERP 5.0?
Are there any document for know the functionality that should work and not work?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,

Hi,
Please have a look at the Master Guide for CRM 7.0. You can find it in the SAP Service Marketplace at www.service.sap.com/crm-inst -> SAP CRM -> SAP CRM 7.0 -> PLAN -> Master Guide CRM 7.0
This document contains information on dependencies on your existing environment.
For example in Chapter 3 "SAP CRM Scenarios", for ECC it states:
Recommended version: SAP ERP 6.0 EHP 4
Minimum version: SAP R/3 4.6C SP 53
Please refer to this document for the info required.
You may also find some useful information in the product availability matrix at service.sap.com/pam
Replication of data between CRM 7.0 and ERP 5.0 should still work fine.
Although you will be missing some functionality that would otherwise be available with ERP 6.0 EHP 4, such as functionality surrounding the creation of ERP documents from the CRM Web UI.
Best Regards
Gavin

Integrating CRM On Demand with EBS (12.1.3) using BPEL

Hi,
I am working on POC for the integration between EBS and CRM On Demand. We are EBS R12.1.3 and have SOA Suite 10g.
We are planning to use BPEL to do this communication between EBS and CRM OD. Is this something that is possible using BPEL. In additional to BPEL, do we need Java coding or any other language coding?
I donwloaded the Account WSDL from the CRM OD website. Created a new BPEL Process using that WSDL. I read that we need to pass the login credentials using a soap header. Can you please let me know how we can do this in a BPEL Process.
Any pointers would help me alot.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Sreenivas.

Hi,
I found a document about using this feature with EBS 11i. I could not find any document that says it is not supported.

Activation of CRM RDS with ERP integration impact on existing ERP configuration

Hi,
I'm doing automatic content activation (via Solution Builder) of the CRM RDS solution with ERP integration. The CRM system is a new installation which will linked to an existing ERP system.
Will the activation of RDS Solution content overwrite the existing configuration in ERP? What is impact of on existing configuration and existing process on ERP?

1. The add-on seems to support all new versions of ECC, does this include ECC on HANA ? --> The add-on supports all release of ECC above the base release mentioned in the Integration guide, including ECC on HANA
2. Is it necessary to backup the environment before installing the add-on ? --> The Add-On does not contain any DB tables. It should not interfere with the ECC environment, so you can install these without any disruption or downtime. As part of general hygiene, you may want to make sure that there is a recent enough backup for the ECC system.
3. The component seems to be isolated from impacting any ECC functionality and its just for the purpose of integrating C4C with ECC. Would this mean that no regression testing is required in ECC ?
No regression testing is required for ECC standard functionality. It will not affect existing distribution models. You will have to set up new ones for Cloud for Customer Integration scenarios.
4. The component doesn't seems to have an uninstall option which would meant that any reverts could only be done through system backup only. Is this accurate ? --> There is no uninstall option.

Order Type Group - CRM 7.0 B2B Ecommerce with ERP Sales Order Scenario

Hello Experts
Scenario: CRM 7.0 with ERP Sales Order
How can we use ORDER TYPE GROUP in CRM 7.0 B2B E-commerce with ERP sales order?
With CRM as a back end this ORDER TYPE GROUP functionality is available as OOTB, but with ECC as a back end is this available?
As per out understanding, we can use more than one TRANSACTION TYPE by seperating the TRANSACTION TYPES by COMMA in shopadmin? Is it a right understanding?
Kindly let us know if we have ORDER TYPE GROUP functionality in CRM 7.0 B2B E-commerce with ERP sales order?
Thanks and Regards
DJ

Hi DJ,
In fact the Order Type Group is only available when you are connected to CRM Backend. For ERP Webshops, you only have the option to add the Order Types separated by coma.
In addition, be aware that B2B only supports Sales Document with category "C - Sales Orders" on ERP backends, for example:Credit Memo Requests won't work. For more information, I created Note 1567713 that explain the restrictions.
Kind Regards,

CRM Best Practices V1.2007 with ERP HR Integration, C01 and C05

Hi,
working on Best Practices CRM V.1.2007 I now should proceed with Building Block C01 (CRM Organizational Model).
I want to use the CRM System integrated with a new installed ERP System and HR Integration.
Therefore I have to use the Building Block C05 (CRM Organizational Model with HR Integration) instead of C01 (CRM Orgnizational Model)
My Question: Is it allowed to proceed with C05 by doing the work direct from the SAP GUI Menu; afterwards I could confirm the steps in the Solution Builder for C01?
Regards, Andreas

Hi Andreas,
Yes, you could do that. But be aware that the other building blocks for master and transaction data replication should not be started unless you are done with the org model BB C01.

Can you please try to do the following in the steps .
1) Search for the file nslbe.dll which can be in the folder c:\program files\notes . Add the location to the PATH variable in the environment variables.
2) Go to the installation folder for Lotus notes which might be c:\program files\Lotus\Notes\jvm\lib\ext . In this folder please put the following files Notes.jar,mail.jar,activation.jar, nslbe.dll. Please do take care that you will need to add the files in the folder ..\jvm\lib\ext
3) Add the ..\jvm\lib\ext folder location to your environment variables.
4) Create a environment variable JAVA_HOME and add the location of the jre-bin,lib and the JDK-bin,lib to this.
Restart your Server and the system where in you want to install the connector and try to run the installation again .

Dear Dr. Word,
I am a graduate student of MIS at Northern Illinois University. I took Dr. Yipeng Liu’s course of Advanced Topic of Information Systems using your textbook - Integrated Business Process With ERP Systems. Your textbook is great. I have a question to discuss with you.
On page 62 of your textbook, I don’t think the accounting process of purchasing supplies is correct. In the example, “GBI purchases office supplies for $500 with a check. Office supplies are expensed; that is, they are defined as money spent rather than treated as an asset upon purchase, even if some of the supplies remain unused. In this case, the relevant accounts are bank and supplies expense.”
Actually, supplies unused are assets of companies. Otherwise we don’t need an account called supplies at all. In the given example, I think we should credit $500 to bank account and debit $500 to supplies account. If at the end of the fiscal year, we used only $300 supplies, then we credit $300 to supplies account and debit $300 to supplies expense account. This is the typical process of supplies accounting.
“Office supplies are expensed; that is, they are defined as money spent rather than treated as an asset upon purchase, even if some of the supplies remain unused. “ This practice actually goes against the Matching Principle of General Acceptable Accounting Principles (GAAP). It’s not a good example especially in textbook, even though lots of companies are doing real business like this.
I am looking forward to hearing your thoughts of my comments on supplies accounting of your textbook.

Capacity planning integration with ERP based on activity types

Hello Friends,
Please help me in understanding the integration of capacity planning with activity types.
I have done the configuration but i am getting all the values double and giving the wrong roll up.
Please help me how this integration works and how to configure it so that i can get the actual efforts from the SAP ERP.
Regards,
Lohith

You can split operation and assign operation ticket to more than one Person (i.e. HR person number) even if they are not linked to one work center.
I don't have system in front of me, but I think it's in Operation details. You can also check individual capacity in table or graph. It was available in ECC 6.0
Hope this helps-

Integrating project planning software with business planning systems (ERP)

Hello there
I have been trying to obtain information about "integrating project planning systems with business planning systems (ERP, PLM)" but I could not find any proper source. Would you help me out on this?
I would like to focus on what benefits can be expected from a close integration of project planning
tools and enterprise information systems such as ERP and what evidence is there that
this is being exploited. If you can help me out with proper sources, I would be appreciated.
Best Regards

Hi,
As per my understanding i think you would like to know the benefits of integrating your legacy Project Planning system with the ERP system. Please correct me if am wrong. If that is what you require, please search the forum as i am very sure that there are threads that explain the benefits of integration.

BP replication from CRM 7.0 to ERP 6.0

Hello.
I was made customizing replication BUPA_MAIN object from CRM 7.0 to ERP as of Best Practics.
When i creating a BP in CRM it's replicating in ERP as Customer only, not as BP.
What I need to customize that BP is created during replicating from CRM?
Thanks

Hi All,
I am also replicating customer master data from CRM-ECC. I am creating BP as Sold-to-party (STP) role and mapping that to a Z-Acc Group (copy of std. STP in ECC).
One thing I want to clarify from you all is that in our case,
In ECC, Recon Acc Field in Co. Code data is mandatory, but in CRM there is no concept of Co. Code.
How do we handle such a scenario, because in this case there will be error of mandatory fields not matching on both sides.
Please share your experiences or solutions for such a scenario.
In addition to this, for tackling this issue,
We created an enhancement on ECC side, to take care of this but while replicating BP's from CRM to ECC, there was en error "No batch input for screen SAPMF02D 100".
When we raised this issue to SAP, their reply was as follows:
1. There are various problems, but the main is probably that we reach the CALL TRANSACTION statement
with FT[] empty. I have skipped the "ENHANCEMENT 24 ZCRM3" which has been added at the
end of function module DEBITOR_BDCDATA and then FT[] was populated.
Then i faced several missing data regarding the mandatory fields;
first one was missing country in the address.
==============
2. The root cause is in the "ENHANCEMENT 24 ZCRM3" which is at the end of FM DEBITOR_BDCDATA.
This enhancement is a custom development from your side.
It first clears IBDCDATA[] and fails to rebuild it because the conditionIF FT-FVAL = '0001'. is NOT fulfilled. (here FT-FVAL = 'Z001') Consequently, the internal table FT[] is later cleared which makes that the call transaction XD01 is executed with no data at all.
===============
If we skip the enhancement, there will always be an error for mandatory fields.
Please share your experiences on such an issue.
Thanks and Regards

Interaction Center Sales with ERP Sales Order

We are in the process of upgrading from CRM 4.0 sp 6 to CRM 2007. We have been using the Web IC and Mobile sales for the last 4 years. In our original CRM 4.0 implementation (which was developed by SAP) we were using the CRM Web IC to create orders with R/3 using a couple of BADI's. We are currently using R/3 4.7 and have plans to upgrade to ECC 6.0 next year. I was just rereading some of the documentation in the upgrade guide and came across the following line:
"The following software units are required for the Interaction Center Sales with ERP Sales Order scenario:
Mandatory: IC WebClient with specific ERP Sales order viewset requires SAP ECC 6.0"
This implies that the standard Interaction Center Sales with ERP Sales Order functionality will not work in our current landscape and that it would only do so when we upgrade to ECC. What options are open to us to get around this? What is the technical reason why this functionality doesn't work with SAP R/3 4.7?
I can't imagine we are the first company to face this problem and I can't imagine everyone upgraded to ECC 6 - so what approaches have people taken to address this issue
Thanks in advance
Eddie

In the last 12 months we upgraded from 4.0 to 5.0 in CRM and went form 46C to ECC 6.0.
In your current landscape you can create orders in the ICWC where the order is created in CRM and replicates to R/3 4.7. You have the replication scenarios X, Y, Z available to you.
Your other option is using the ICWC R/3 order screen where you basically are calling R/3 transaction VA01 and entering the order in the ICWC but the order entry in being done directly into R/3 via your ITS server. Looks almost exactly like VA01 in the gui. The menu bars are a little different.
The ERP order looks like other ICWC screens, is very sharp and users wouldn't know that they are entering the order directly in ECC. We have been using it about 3 months. More Pro's than Con's, if you have user exits in MV45AFZ* the ERP order still uses them (but t-code isn't VA01 if you have condition If statements around t-codes).
Hope this helps,

Integrating CRM On Demand /JDEE

Hello Experts,
We have a requirement of integrating CRM On Demand and JDEE with SOA Suite as an middle ware.
For initial development phase we have attempt to log in to CRM OD and able to create a Session ID and log out using JAVA code available @ http://www.webbasedcrmsoftware.com.au/crm-on-demand-tutorials/65-java-access-to-crm-on-demand
When we run the same log in java code from the SOA BPEL @ http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/ofm-siebel-blog-postings-092216.html
String sessionString = "FAIL";
String wsLocation = "https://yourinstance.crmondemand.com/Services/Integration";
String headerName;
try
// create an HTTPS connection to the OnDemand webservices
URL wsURL = new URL(wsLocation + "?command=login");
HttpURLConnection wsConnection = (HttpURLConnection)wsURL.openConnection();
// disable caching
wsConnection.setUseCaches(false);
// set some http headers to indicate the username and password we are using to logon
wsConnection.setRequestProperty("UserName", "myusername");
wsConnection.setRequestProperty("Password", "myencryptedpassword");
wsConnection.setRequestMethod("GET");
// see if we got a successful response
if (wsConnection.getResponseCode() == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK)
// get the session id from the cookie setting
for (int i=0; ; i++)
headerName = wsConnection.getHeaderFieldKey(i);
if (headerName != null && headerName.equals("Set-Cookie"))
// found the Set-Cookie header (code assumes only one cookie is being set)
sessionString = wsConnection.getHeaderField(i);
break;
String formattedID = sessionString.substring(sessionString.indexOf("=")+1,sessionString.indexOf(";"));
setVariableData("SessionID",formattedID);
//System.out.println("Session ID: " + sessionString);
catch (Exception e)
System.out.println("Logon Exception generated :: " + e);
we are not able to get session ID :(
Are we missing some thing :( like importing CRM-OD certificate to Weblogic Server?
Please some one guide me

So does it work on one server and not the other?
Also -
String wsLocation = "https://yourinstance.crmondemand.com/Services/Integration";
wsConnection.setRequestProperty("UserName", "myusername");
wsConnection.setRequestProperty("Password", "myencryptedpassword");
You are changing these in your code - correct?

Integrating SAP Java Connector with SAP XI

Hi XI experts
We are about to integrate our SAP ERP2004 system with a new WMS system. The vendors of the WMS system normally integrates with ERP directly through SAP Java Connector, but we would like to put SAP XI between the two systems so we have good way of monitoring the messages beeing sent.
I would like to make a synchronous test scenario where we send a ARTMAS idoc from SAP to XI which sends it to the WMS. After WMS system receives the ARTMAS Idoc it sends an acknowledgement back to XI which passes it on to SAP.
The integration would then look like this:
SAP ERP <-> SAP XI <-> WMS (Jco)
Is this scenario possible? And if so, how would you suggest to set it up?
I was thinking of using the RFC adapter to connect to the Java Connector of WMS, but am not sure if this is the right approach or how it should be set up.
Any help or comments would be greatly appreciated.
Best Regards
Chris

I have made a setup like this:
SAP <-> XI <-> WMS
The Scenario is like this:
SAP sends an ARTMAS03 idoc to XI which maps it directly to the same ARTMAS03 idoc structure (need a few changes in the future so thats why im not using IDOC tunnelling) then it uses a RFC receiver adapter to connect to our SAP gateway, where the WMS is registrered through JCO.
When I first sent the idoc, i got a "RfcAFWException: failed to read funtionname from XML document: missing namespace declaration(2)" then after reading Q23 in note 730870, I used the RFCNormalizer xslt to change the namespace to a "urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:fuctions" instead of the "urn:sap-com:document:sap:idoc:messages". The error is now "functiontemplate from repository was <null>".
As far as i can see the error is because the metadata repository defined in the RFC adapter cant find the function module that normally would be in the root of a RFC-XML. But I dont know how I can send an Idoc through the rfc adapter to the gateway then. Anyone got some ideas?
Thanks
Chris
