Multiple CRM clients (MCRM) pricing and lean order management

Hi CRM experts,
We have a scenario where two CRM CLIENTS (not different systems/boxes) (lets say 100 and 110) are connected to two different SAP ECC systems (NOT different clients but different ECC systems). Both CRM clients have interaction center sales with Lean order management. Now ECC systems have to me merged and the it is required to have one ECC client is connected to 2 different CRM clients.
As per the note 1143540 provided by SAP on this subject it seems that multiple CRM systems can be connected to one ECC. The note tells that conditions exchange in not supported.
1) I want to know if conditions can be exchanged atleast with one system.
2) We know that multiple CRM systems/boxes are supported but are MULTIPLE CLIENTS supported
3) Will Lean order be supported with multiple clients of CRM with one ECC backend
Your help on any of the above questions is highly appreciated and points will be given liberally.
Thanks
Satish

Hi Satish ,
Though I have no document which says this would happen or don't , yet I believe this is possible.
I would visualize the scenario likes this
OLD Scenario
CRM_CLNT1--RFC_1ECC1 CRM_CLNT2--RFC_2-ECC2 ( CRM_CLNT* connected through RFC_* to ECC*)
New Scenario
CRM_CLNT1 -
RFC_1------ ECC1----RFC_2--
CRM_CLNT2
In my opinion at the CRM side this should be possible. It would not lead any change at the CRM side because CRM_1 system and CRM_2 system would still connect to ECC1 through separate RFC connections. But at the ERP side you would have to replicate the data for ECC2 in ECC1.
The Lean order or LORD connects the SAP ERP & SAP CRM systems through a RFC connection using LORD framework on the CRM side. The ERP fields and CRM fields are mapped using mapping table and data is exchanged through communication structure. I don't see any reason why this would be affected.
Let me know your thoughts on this.
I would be interested to know if I you find any relevant documents on this which proves my hypothesis wrong.
Regards
Kavindra
P.S: award points if you find it useful.

If it will done by a functional consultant, where to do?

Vision:M Canadian pricing and pre-order fina

NCIX - a company from Vancouver Canada has the Vision:m for pre-order on their website.
they are pricing the vision:m at $345 Canadian.
Considering the Ipod Video goes for $379 Canadian - it is just another reason to buy a Vision:m (and you get an AC charger).

mp3n00b wrote:I have the feeling we won't see the Vision:M here for quite a while. But I don't see the rationale behind bumping up the price of M past the Nano...from what I've heard/read/seen, the margins on iPods aren't the highest in the industry.
The Vision:M is comparable to the full-size 5G (video) iPods, not the iPod nano, so the price should be higher than the iPod nano. Besides, Creative is losing money on MP3 players as is, so it needs all the margin it can get. (They've told Wall Street they're not competing on price anymore, though how they'll do that is unclear, and that may not apply in Canada.)
It probably isn't available in Canada yet, but considering how closely the Canadian electronics market is now connected to the US, both within Creative (Canadians have to call Stillwater, OK for customer support as well) and at the retail level (Best Buy and Circuit City are starting to dominate there also, even if not yet fully in name), I suspect the wait won't be long.

Homeland S3 pricing and pre-orders

I pre-ordered Homeland season 3 on blu-ray (amongst other things) on Sunday. The price in the weekly ad is $27, but the price on BB.com at that point was $32. I placed the order expecting the price to be fixed. The price on BB.com is now correct, but my order is not. My order has 3 TV seasons in it, so it has the 25% off applied, but it's 25% off $32, not $27, and at this point the order's shipped.
Why didn't BB.com automatically fix my order's price? I shouldn't have to post here, or contact BB.com to get this fixed, pre-orders should have their prices just automatically adjusted when prices drop.
-Proud CAGer.

Hello Keen,
As you might have already noticed, BestBuy.com and our retail stores tend to have different prices. The reasoning behind that is that they are both competing among their own markets, local retailers and online retailers. That is why Best Buy has designed the Low Price Guarantee, where Best Buy will honor a qualifying lower price.
I think that you have a very good suggestion, however at the moment the price adjustment is not automatic and it does need to be brought to our attention to make sure that you qualify for it. I will be more than happy to see how I can be of assistance, please take the time to log onto the forum and send me your contact information with your order number through a private message option found after my signature.
Thank you for posting,

HR strutural Authorization check in the Lean order Interface (LORD)

Hi ,
We place Quotations , Orders in CRM 7.0 , via the Lean order Interface Screen (LORD) . So users in ECC have HR structural authorization and they seems to the checked ( for the HR# part of the Sales Team , and comming accross as partner function in the Quotations , Orders documents )
Can we avoid the HR structural Authorization check in the Lean order Interface ?

Dear Christophe,
I do not understand the requirement...you create ERP orders via CRM interface, and you have set up authorization in ERP for the users. Why do you want to prevent the authority check when coming from CRM when it is needed ?
However please consider note 1446253 quesiton 9.
You might activate or deactivate the "current user" flag in sm59 for your ERP system.
Hope this information helps...

Order Management 10.7 and 11i

Hi,
Can someone please advice me on differences between 10.7 and 11i - Order Management Module?
Thanks.

as you know in 10.7 it is order entry and not order management. Order management was redesigned from 11i onwards introducing workflow to manage the orders which does not exist in 10.7. Also a number of features introduced from 11i. I have a very old presentation on OE to OM. If you wish to have it, please update this thread with your mail address, I will mail it you.

Hun,
Provides support for the complete Service processing lifecycle from Service Quotation creation to Billing. A service order is created if the customer has to be billed for services like utility usage, no. of pages printed (using counters etc). Service Order processing includes integrated validation of service contract price agreements and warranty entitlements.
The cycle is :
Business Scenario Service quotation and service order management
A.     Make inquiry Customer contacts and requests for quotation
B.     Create and communicate quotation service rep. creates a quotation and sends it to the customer
C.     Accept the quotation
D.     Convert quotation into service order and release the order
E.     Create and optimize assignments - The Resource Planner assigns any field service tasks to one or more of his Field Service Representatives
F.     Execute assignment, perform confirmation - The Field Service Representative performs the service assignment at the customer site and performs confirmation for the work done, materials used and so on
G.     Approve confirmation, assign costs - The Service Manager checks and approves the confirmation data and decides which costs should be billed to the customer
H.     Bill customer, perform analyses - The Service Manager triggers billing of the customer and performs analyses of the complete service order processing cycle
Where as a repair order would be created when a customer finds a defect in say a product and the requests for a repair of replacement.
The cycle is:
The business scenario
1.     Enter repair request
The customer calls the service organization to request a repair. The agent enters the repair request. The system checks whether a warranty exists.
2.     Send in defective product
The customer sends in the product using the given return material authorization number.
3.     Plan repair steps
A service representative performs the technical analysis and enters the inspection result (causes, tasks, etc.). He decides what action should be taken based on the inspection result.
4.     Create service quotation
The system calculates the price for the planned repair and required spare parts, according to the price agreements in the service contract, and the warranty costs. The agent generates a service quotation.
5.     Perform confirmation
The customer accepts the quotation. The service representative repairs the product and confirms his working times and materials used. He also documents the inspection results.
6.     Return repaired product
The service representative returns the repaired product to the customer.
7.     Create invoice
The service representative triggers customer billing, based on the confirmed time and spare parts used, and in accordance with existing warranties and specific price agreements.
8.     Analyze defect reasons
Using predefined queries and reports, the service manager analyzes the most important defect reasons.

Problems with pricing in Internet Order screen(CRM E-Commerce 5.0)

Good afternoon !
        We are using CRM 5.0 with CRM E-Commerce 5.0, and we are experiencing problems with pricing in the order screen.
        When we create an order and insert one item at this order, this item is processed and the price is calculated and shown correctly, both in the item and in the table of totals at the right corner(where is the Total Net Price, freight value, etc).
        If we change the quantity of this item, or insert more one item(with the same or other product), the price turns to zero, both in the item(s) and in the table of totals mentioned above. Also, in the table of totals, the freight value remains being calculated, even in this cases when the prices is turned to zero.
        What can be happening in this case ? What can I check to determine the cause and solve this problem ?
        Thank you in advance !
        Wilson

Good afternoon !
        This problem was solved adjusting some parameters of partner determination.

MRP order multiple and minimum order qty

Hello
I am running MRP for one item with minimum stock level 20, in house qty 1, order multiple 12 and minimum order qty 20
the MRP return the figure 19 to order, when it should be 24 taking into account order multiple and minimum order qty...
Could you explain me why
we run SBO B1 2007 SP00 PL49

Hi,
This is the definition of your questions:
Order Multiple u2013 you can set a multiplication factor for ordering the item e.g. in
case you define 5 in this field and14 items are required, the MRP will recommend to
order 15 items (3X5=15). If 18 items are required, the recommendation will be to
order 20 items (4X5).
Minimum Order Qty u2013 you can type a minimum quantity for ordering items by the MRP.
The planning data is apply when there is a requirement (sales order, forecast, production orders (for the child item) and reserve invoice.

XMII and Multiple Thin Clients

Hi,
I am thinking of deploying multiple thin clients, each accessing a single xMII instance and am posting a general "broad" question. Although probably not an "xMII" related thread, but any others using xMII content on thin client(s)?
Any issues or pointers or suggestions or "not to do's" with content / java script / applets / performance / refresh?
Thanks all, Rgds Kevin.
Edited by: Kevin Hibbins on Apr 28, 2008 10:58 AM

A thin client is essentially a Web Browser, right? Or are you looking @ something else as well?
Just to add , this is from the MII help - "The following section provides a visual overview of the various applets provided with SAP xMII. By combining and linking these building blocks, incredibly powerful decision support applications that bridge a variety of disparate data sources can be quickly created and deployed on thin client platforms such as Web browser, personal digital assistants (PDAs), or other Web-aware mobile devices and internet appliances".
Help me understand if you have anything specific in mind when you say 'thin clients'.
