Arun,
In CRM the sales organization is an organizational unit object that has an attribute that corresponds to the 4 digit sales organization code in ERP. This is also true for purchasing organizations which are organizational units that have ERP purchase org code as an attribute.
So to do this you need to translate the organizational unit number based on the attributes of that organizational unit(sales or purchasing).
Take care,
Stephen

Hi Gurus,
Can any one tell me the difference in functionalities between crm and ecc 6.0?
Or ecc6.0 is integrated with crm?
What all functionalities of crm can be configured through ecc 6.0?
Whether we require a seperate crm system like the R/3 4.7 and connect it through the middleware
Please suggest at the earliest
Thanks in advance
AjayHi Ajay,
This question could have saved us all this efforts
Btw, opportunity management is used to capture the potential customers info. It helps to capture the buying pattern, the source from which this opportunity is captured, the probability of winning the order. Also we can maintain the various stages of Oppoprtunity and the activities that need to be performed in each phase. You can also maintain the competitor info in opportunity.
Also if you are using PCUI, the opportunity created in CRM5.0 using PCUI can be created as Sales Quotation in ECC.
The opportunity is not replicated in ECC otherwise.
The opportunity can be then followed up by sales order which can then be replicated into ECC.
More info is available on http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm50/helpdata/en/5b/60c565c63d5a4d8200472b6008eb92/frameset.htm
Hope this will help

Options for loading data from legacy mainframe to SAP CRM and ECC
Hello All,
I am new to SAP.
As part of data conversion planning from legacy mainframe to SAP CRM and ECC systems, I need to know the different tools available for loading the data and comparative analysis of the tools by showing the features. Please also describe the process to evaluate the tools (prototyping, technical discussions etc) and make the recommendations.
I would also appreciate any information on testing tools like (eCATT) and any third party tools (like Informatica)
I know I am asking for lot of things here. But, I really appreciate any information reagrding this.
Thanks,
BaluHi
Data Migration(Conversions) mainly involves the following Major Steps
Discovery->Extract->Cleanse->Transform->Load
Discovery-> Involves identifying various source systems available where the actual data is residing.
Extract->Extract the data from the source systems(legacy systems)
Cleanse->Cleanse the data by enriching it,De-duplications etc
Transform->Transform the data into SAP Loadable format
Load->Upload the data into SAP Using the Load Programs(Eg,BDC,LSMW,Data Transfer Workbench,BAPIs etc)
Also i would request you to visit http://www.businessobjects.com/solutions/im/data_migration.asp

Need to install CRM and ECC in same server
Hi Experts,
I want to install CRM and ECC server in a single server. (Win2003/MS SQL server)
I think we need more space (Sizing).
Apart from this, i have couple fo questions in my mind..
1,Which server should i install first.?
2,Does it use the same Database for both servers (CRM and ECC) installation?
3,I know that SID is differ for both server, does it use the same kernel for Both.
4, What are the dependent and independent files ?
5, How the database wil behave when i stop/start one server ?
Could someone help me the stpes.
Thanks and regards
Thirumal1,Which server should i install first.?
Doesn't make any difference... you can start with either of them
2,Does it use the same Database for both servers (CRM and ECC) installation?
Yes, It will create separate instances on the DB.
3,I know that SID is differ for both server, does it use the same kernel for Both.
No.. they'll have separate kernel directories.
4, What are the dependent and independent files ?
Files will be all independant, beside the hosts and services files.. but sap wise everything should be under different SID's (as far as i remember)
5, How the database wil behave when i stop/start one server ?
You have to be carefull with this one... if you stop the DB it will affect both systems... so when stopping the system make sure you use stopsap/startsap r3

Replicating Custom Fields for Products in CRM from ECC
Hi All,
I am having difficulty in replicating SAP standard field values from ECC to custom fields for products in CRM. This is what i did:
1. I created a new settype(ZMASTER_INFO) with a single attribute(ZIND_STD) and added
this new settype to MAT_HAWA. (As all our materials fall under this material type).
2. I am looking to map SAP standard field from ECC to this custom field of mine.
I wrote the code in CRM BADI
'ZPRODUCT_CUSTOMER2->MAP_R3_TO_CRM_MATERIAL' with the following code:
DATA: ls_ZMASTER_INFO TYPE ZMASTER_INFO_maintain.
DATA: ls_category_bdoc TYPE COMT_PROD_CAT_REL_MAINTAIN,
ls_category TYPE COMT_PROD_CAT_REL,
lt_categories TYPE COMT_PROD_CAT_REL_TAB,
ls_settype TYPE COMT_settype_ext,
ls_cat_settype_rel TYPE COMT_CAT_FRAG_REL,
lt_cat_settype_rel TYPE COMT_CAT_FRAG_REL_TAB,
lt_cat_settype_rel_all TYPE COMT_CAT_FRAG_REL_TAB.
LOOP AT lt_cat_settype_rel_all INTO ls_cat_settype_rel.
CALL FUNCTION 'COM_SETTYPE_READ_SINGLE'
EXPORTING
IV_SETTYPE_GUID = ls_cat_settype_rel-frgtype_guid
IMPORTING
ES_SETTYPE = ls_settype
EXCEPTIONS
NOT_FOUND = 1
NO_IMPORT_VALUES = 2
NO_TEXT_FOUND = 3 .
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
CASE ls_settype-frgtype_id.
WHEN 'ZMASTER_INFO'.
ls_ZMASTER_INFO-relation-owner = 'X'.
ls_ZMASTER_INFO-relation-logsys = cs_product_bdoc-header-com_product-logsys.
ls_ZMASTER_INFO-data-ZZ0010 = is_mara-STD_DESCR.
ls_ZMASTER_INFO-DATA_X-ZZ0010 = 'X'.
APPEND ls_ZMASTER_INFO TO cs_product_bdoc-data-ZMASTER_INFO.
APPEND ls_settype-FRGTYPE_GUID TO cs_product_bdoc-data-MNT_SETTYPE.
ENDCASE.
ENDLOOP.
Since in ECC i am not having any custom fields i did not write any code in ECC for TPS34 and TBE24. I just wrote this BADI in CRM and using the field S_MARA-STD_DESCR.
I am not sure if i need to write the code in ECC. COUld anyone please confirm if i need the code in ECC?
Also in the CRM BADI, lt_cat_settype_rel_all is EMPTY. Not sure how this gets its value.
Could anyone please suggest if i am missing anything here? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Karuna.Hi Karuna,
One more solution is to change the BDoc data content before it hit the Database.
this can be done in badi: Data_Exchange_badi (if u dont find this try with following search string: xchange)
In the above mention badi you will find a method which is used to populated the contend jst after bdoc in CRM is being populated by R/3 data.

Mutual Changes of sales document in CRM and ECC
HI
1.We have a scenario as we are creating orders in CRM, but want to change the same in ECC. Also whatever changes we do in ECC should flow back to CRM.
2.Similarly, if we create sales order in ECC, it should be changeable in CRM and the corresponsing changes flow back to ECC.
I came across following SAP notes for the same.
1.889051: Scenario A
2.642944:Interdependent changes
My question is What is the difference between Scenario A and Interdependent Changes?
Please help urgently.

What is the difference of customer master data between CRM and ECC
Dear all,
We are helping customer to evaluate using CRM or ECC to manage there customer master data, focusing on the benefit of using CRM system.
Can any one help to compare the difference between these two system?
some tips in my mind are:
1. CRM has a friendly user interface for user to adjust the layout, hide/display favourite information according to actuall req.
2. In CRM, user can change the field/assignment block description easilly
3. in CRM7.0, user can add new customzing field easilly via AET
4. CRM has a good any analysis platform to provide pie chart analytic
5. CRM store more customer infor. than ECC, such as Marketing attribute, account classfication...anything else?
any other benefit to use CRM for customer master data? Pls help!!!
Thanks very much!!
BR,
HedyI would agree with most of the topics you mentioned. Just one remark to topic number 5. Business partner doesn't have more data than erp. It has some more marketing oriented data, but on other hand doesn't have all finincial and credit data that are relevant for erp financial transactions.
In our company we have the following scenario: all business partners are created in crm (because there the sales activities are started and because we don' clasify at the begining all partners as customers but as prospects. and of course it has nicer user interface). but when we are closing the deals (ordreds are transfered to erp), we fill some additional (financial) data of that partner on erp side and clasify partners as customers.

Finding a function to maintain a product in CRM
I tried to maintain a product category at general tab in the transaction 'COMMPR01.' However, I don't know which function or bapi should be used for this requirement. I tried to use BDC, but it doesn't work in this case.
Here is some code that I had in my bag of tricks.
report zrich_0001 .
parameters: p_datum type sy-datum.
* check if it is a leap year.
data: march1 type sy-datum.
data: last_day_feb type sy-datum.
march1 = p_datum.
march1+4(4) = '0301'.
last_day_feb = march1 - 1.
if last_day_feb+6(2) = '29'.
write:/ 'This is a leap year'.
endif.

If you compare both, then you will find that Services and limits structures are missing in ECC 6.0.
When I am trying to create Purchase requisition in ECC 6.0 using BAPI_PR_CREATE, it gives me error saying "Please Maintain Services or Limits".
Please suggest me on this, how can I create the PR for Services using BAPI_PR_CREATE.

IS CRM AND ECC 5.0 INTEGRATED
Hello Experts
I want to know CRM is integrated with ECC or we need to integrate with XIhi Srinivas,
CRM could be used as a Stand alone system if you are doing a Scenario like
Activity and Opportunity Management which does not require integration with any other SAP or Non-SAP system.
But if you are doing Campaign Management,Digital AssetManagement or any other depending on the dependency CRM can be integrated with ECC(conditions
transactional data replication), BI (for data mining tools), SCM (APO to do the realtime availability check) usually Middleware is used as a tool for communication between these systems.
XI is more functional when the given landscape has hetrogenous systems, If you are depending on a Legacy system for Masterdata in the landscape.
Please reward points.

Custom fields replication in sales order from CRM to ECC
Hi Experts,
We have added a few custom fields in CRM 7.0 (Ehp1) using AET. The BDoc BUS_TRANS_MSG has been automatically extended with these custom fields.
On ECC side also, same custom fields have been added to VBAK and VBAP, using APPEND STRUCTURE. Fields were added to ADDITIONAL DATA TAB B in VA01 / VA02 transactions.
Our issue is, when a sales order is created in CRM, it is getting replicated on ECC. But, only standard fields are getting replicated. The custom fields that we have added are remaining empty on ECC side.
In CRM --> txn SMW01, we can see that the BDOC is populated with custom fields also.
What is it that we have to do to ensure that custom fields are also replicated to ECC. Do we need to maintain field mapping between CRM and ECC, for custom fields, manually. How and where do we have to maintain the mapping. Also, please let me know the BADIs / exits that need to be implemented to achieve the above functionality
Regards,
ManoharHi Manohar
You can map these custom fields using the badi CRM_DATAEXCHG_BADI. Please see the documentation of the badi in SE18 in your system for further details.

Create Material in CRM and also in ECC
Hello,
We have a non-SAP system (that is not being retired) where pre-production material numbers are generated for opportunity work.
(They are not initially ECC)
We are migrating our current opportunity system into CRM, and approach is the non-SAP system will start to send the pre-production materials into CRM (as products). To support opportunity creation.
However, when the materials do go into production, we then will set up the material numbers in ECC to support quotes/orders.
The material numer will be the same as when it was just pre-production status.
However, we are concerned with middleware replication...
What happens if we directly create a product in CRM, and then xx months later create the same product in ECC.
what happens when that material number tries to replicate to CRM and the number already exists?
Thanks
ChrisHi Chris,
If you create the materials directly in CRM and then the materials with the same id in ECC, the products won't be in sync in the two systems and the transfers will start giving errors stating that the Product ID already exists and nothing will happen. Neither a new product will be created in CRM from ECC nor will it update the already existing once in CRM.
The reason being that the product created in CRM will be of the logical system identifier : CRM but when they will flow from ECC, they will be of the logical system identifier : ECC, hence the two won't link up.
