Need to know the Business Package for CRM4.0 Sales in EP6.0

Hi experts,
  We are trying to implement the CRM4.0 Sales business package in our EP6.0 environment( Our Backend R/3 is in 4.6B) . We would like to install complete package for the Sales module (The main (Top level) menus in the portal look like the following ==>
Activities..  Account Management  ... Acquisition.. Sales .. Products..  Analysis..   Home..  R/3 Integration .. CRM integration .. APO integration..
Below every top level menus there are sub menus.. For example under Sales we would have the folliwng ( Overview.. Quotation.. Orders .. Contracts.. Billing Documents )
In the list of package from CRM (available in the SDN) the following looks like the currect one, can anybody advice please.
  Business Package for SAP CRM 4.0     60.2.3   SAP AG   Unrestricted Shipment.
However, since we are only interested about the Sales Portion only can we choose to import content that is relevant only to the CRM SALES as well as CRM SALES analytics and not anything else? If it's possible the what is the procedure? If not then I assume that we will have to import the entire content and activate only the portion that we need. Please advice.
  Appreciate a detail reply.
   Thanks
Arun

Hi Arun,
When u download and apply a busiiness pacakge u will get the complete package.
After appling the bussiness package u will get a report showing whcih all roles worksets etc are added to the portal. And also In portal contants there will be a folder created. There u can see the roles , worksets pages iviews etc.
You can edit the role and put the desired iviews or pages according to u r demand.
Hope this Helps
gEorgE
Read the log file(generated after importing the BP) it will give u all the information abt the contents that are uploaded to the portal server.

  • Business Package for Internal Sales Representative 1.0

    I'm trying to install the Business Package for Internal Sales Representative 1.0 to explore the options of using Business Packages in our portal.  I have the SAP Library Link for this BP ( http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/EN/b7/036b4060a1181ce10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm ), and I've looked at the configuration information on the page. 
    So far I've imported the business package for common parts and the business package for internal sales representative, I assigned the alias "SAP_ECC_SalesService" to our ECC connection (does it need to be the default alias?).  We also have an ITS installed for the connected system.  We don't currently have our BI system connected to this portal, but it said that was optional.  I have also assigned the role from each business package to my user, but when I open the iviews, they give me errors.
    I am not sure what I am supposed to do to make the settings for the launchpad.  Also, what other steps do I need to complete?  Do I need to do something in the source system to set up the connection?
    Any help appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • Reports available in the Business Package for MSS and ESS

    Hi,
    I have searched sdn.sap.com throughout looking for a comprehensive list of reports available in the business packages for both MSS and ESS, i got a little bit of joy and found some of the MSS reports but not all on sdn.sap.com, can anyone please advise where i would find such information on both these packages, just to re-iterate, i am looking for a list of reports these business packages offer? any help much appreciated.
    Thanks
    John
    P.s any documents can be sent to [email protected]

    @John
    (1) ESS- We built our own custom PORTAL role/workset in which one of the worksets we created is called "Tools and Forms". Under that workset, we placed various pages/iViews that either are simple URL iViews that link to external documents and such (like vacation request forms since they do not do online leave requests yet) as well as a couple ot t-code iViews that run reports in ECC for the employee. Nothing very mind blowing there. Just some content creation on the portal side.....oh, and some config on the backend to create a Homepage Framework Area Page and all for it (I liked that part!)
    (2) Wow....talk about perfect timing...I just had to document the way MSS sees the MDT reports in it's "reporting" area yesterday! haha Here goes the quick explaination....in configuration for MDT, you have various "scenarios". These kinda determine which "groups" of reports will show in MDT. For MSS for the Reporting webdynpro/service, the scenario is RPT0 (in ECC 5.0, at least). Soooo if you look at the function CODES assigned to RPT0, you will see several for Training and one for Accounting (Cost Centers)...you can reference the function CODES listed back to the "pool"/library of function codes a bit up/previous in the same config area for MDT(I think it is called "Define Function Codes"). However, there is one more piece you will see listed under RPT0....it is a DIRECT call to function MODULE "HR_HIS_READ" (this was a bugger to find because I could not find the "Maternity" report listed in the function codes and had to figure out where the heck it was coming from! haha). Anyways....what the function MODULE actually does is call the HR Information System (HIS) passing it the RPT0/MSS scenario. This returns the particular reports for Employee Data and Time&Attendance. You can see this if you run the HR_HIS_READ function directly and enter RPT0 for the second input value (first and third are not needed or you can just enter "*". Sooooo that is how the "magic" happens. Hope that explained it. From there, you can simply config you own scenario/reports to add into MSS if you like.
    Hope this helped!

  • What is the business package for appointment calender

    In SAP GUI version we have appointment calender accessed by Tcodes SSC1 and SSC0
    what is the corresponding business package and iviews in the portal
    is backed calender fully synchronised with portal?

    Ross,
    I do not think there is a business package for your requirement. However, you could use the transaction codes to access them from portal or probably check this collaboration feature to see if it fits your requirement.

  • Need to know the base tables for the QM datasources

    Hello SAP Experts,
    I want to know the base tables for the below mentioned datasources which stores the transaction data.
    1. 2LIS_05_QE1:  Inspection Characterstics Results
    2. 2LIS_05_QE2: Inspection Characterstics Results (Quan)
    3. 2LIS_05_QVUDN: Usage decision for Inspection
    Need your inputs.
    Thanks,
    Lasya.
    Edited by: lasya john on Dec 10, 2008 8:28 PM

    Hi Lasya,
    You can use help.sap.com for this.
    If you do not find this data source there...then
    You can go to LBWE t-code in R/3 and then infront of the data source...you have maintenance option.
    Click on that ...and go inside it in the display mode.
    Here you can see a generic pool of fields on the left side which can be included in the data source........  field present in the data sources in the right side of the pool.
    For every field you have a tructure name infront of it like MCXXXX where XXXX is the table name.
    So the field is being from that particular table.
    Even I would the same thing to reply to your thread.
    You can follow the same procedure to find the table for any LO data source.
    This is accurate in 99% cases...only in very few cases like purchasing...we get one or two fields from different tables.
    Hope it helps.
    Thanks

  • I need to know the proper syntax for my SELECT query, please.

    Hello All,
    Quick one for you:
    Let's say that I have several columns in a table with names such as subject_1, subject_2, subject_3, etc. The table's name is subject_names.
    The number in each of the three column name examples is also a value passed along a query string, the user can select choices, 1, 2 or 3. That query string's variable is $qs.
    So, what I want is a SELECT query that uses the query string value as follows (KEEP IN MIND, I know this is not the proper syntax):
    "SELECT subject_[$qs]
    FROM subject_names";
    I have tried all sorts of cominations of quotes (single and double), dots, brackets, braces and parenthesis. I just want to know how to include such a variable within this code.
    Any and all help is sincerely appreciated!
    Cheers,
    wordman

    Well, I did give you the syntax though.
    $query = 'SELECT ' . $qs . ' FROM tbl_name';
    I put spaces between the periods this time to make it more clear.
    If you put the actual word 'subject' in there and just want your form to name it's options as the numbers available you could do this:
    $query = 'SELECT subject_' . $qs . ' FROM tbl_name';
    In PHP you can use either single or double quotes around your query string, I always just use single quotes. I see a lot of other use double quotes.
    Double quotes would look like:
    $query = "SELECT subject_' . $qs . ' FROM tbl_name";
    Or when using double quotes you can actually just place the variable right in the string without having to concatenate multiple strings like above.
    Since you mentioned that you are good with passing variables I probably don't have to mention that you need to set the value attribute of your option tags (if you are using a select) to the value you want them to pass.
    Ex:
    <select name="choices">
         <option value="1">1</option>
         <option value="2">2</option>
         <option value="3">3</option>
    </select>
    If you have that part all figured out then you can use the syntax above for your query string.
    Good luck.

  • I need to know the application ID for Speech Feedback.

    I have a problem, the speech feedback icon is in my window after I used it for a while. I went to system preferances and turned speech feedback off. The icon did not disappear. I have tried right clicking for options but nothing happened. I also looked up a converstion in which the questioner was using later software than mine. He had updated his software and the icon was deleted on his desktop. At the end of the conversation between the apple user and the apple attendant the attendant said alternately he could go to the terminal application and type "kill #" the hashtag stands for the item ID. He reffered to an application which I have never seen nore heard of called Process ID. Of course, the user had been using older software than I at the time. I would like to know what the ID for Speech Feedback is so I can delete the icon using terminal. The other recomendations  the attendant reffered to did not work, so again, what is the system ID for the Speech Feedback icon/application?

    Hi, it'll have a different number depending on when it starts, one way to see the PID is to...
    Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on, sort on Nasame for instance.
    Another to just type top into Terminal...

    But anyway.. I have followed the installagion and configuration guide for this BP, and activated the contex service and uploaded the com.sap.pct.crm.crmcontext.par and com.sap.pct.crm.crmkmext.par with additionalDeployment and so with the support package..
    Anyone got any tips for this?

    Hope you have raised an OSS message side-by-side so that SAP can help you out if there is something very basic missed during installation.

  • Need to know the simplest workflow for Flash CS5 to iPad

    Hi There,
    Can you please tell me the simplest workflow for Flash CS5 to iPad.
    I want to put my company's flashCS5 made interactive portfolio(with FLV video showreel) into ipad to show my clients.
    What is the simplest way?? I am not familier with codes or programming.
    Can you help me guys??
    -Sahid
    I am using PC.

    It doesn't matter whether you use a MAC or a PC to create the content - the iPad simply will not accept it. It was designed with exactly that purpose in mind. That's why I advised you to get rid of it. Stick to PC and you'll have zero problems.
    Just a hint - a Sony Vaio (the 11 " models with carbon fiber casing) look even more prosperous, are the same weight, and since they run Windows OS will not have the typical Apple limitatations

  • I am a student working on a project for school and I need to know the bandwidth options for the iPad mini with retina display

    I am working on a project where I am required to introduce a new product for consideration in the hospital setting.  I have chosen the iPad mini, and have been able to locate the information that I need except for the bandwidth options.  Any help would be appreciated.

    I don't know what you mean by "bandwidth options". If you mean the frequencies and bands the iPad can use with cell carriers, those are listed in the Wireless and Cellular area of the tech specs. For iPads sold in the US, see:
    http://www.apple.com/ipad-mini/specs/
    If that's not what you meant, please post back and clarify what you mean by "bandwidth options".
    Regards.

  • Need to know the best practice for converting string to double

    I have a string and want to convert to double if it is a valid number, else want to keep as it is. There can be couple of ways doing it and I want to know which one is best if I have lots of strings, specially from performance point of view.
    1) Use Double.parseDouble(myString) and catching Number format exception to detect it is not a number. One of my colleague said it does not give good performance because of exception catching,
    2) Use of org.apache.commons.lang.math.NumberUtils.isNumber() and if it is true then only parse it - so don't rely on exception.
    I did some performance testing - putting it in a loop and trying out for 2 scenarios - one loop for proper numeric value string and another for non-numeric. What I found out was if strings are not proper then parseDouble() is taking long time (because of exception catching) and in that case using NumberUtils.isNumber() makes sense.
    Would like to hear expert views on this.
    Thanks
    Manisha

    If you need it as a double you must convert it to a double and catch the exception. This means that testing it first is a waste of time in the case when the test succeeds - did your colleague think of that?
    Catching the exception is possibly slower than the test. Whether this is significant depends on the relative timings of the test and catching the exception, and also on the expected error rate. If this is below about 40% I suggest your colleague is talking through his esteemed hat.
    And of course the best test by far is the conversion itself. Using any other test runs the risk of its rules being different from those applied by the conversion.
    In any case you are obliged to write the code that catches the exception. You're not obliged to write the pre-test code.
    My personal rule for efficiency is to minimize lines of code until hard evidence to the contrary proves that further improvement is required.

  • Need to know the best method for pattern matching

    Hi,
    I need a best a way to do the pattern matching with better performance
    for the following requirement.
    i need to search for a set of records as per the following requirements.
    1. The input string will be split into tokens with space as delimiter
    so if the user enters the text 'severe head ache',the tokens formed will be
    severe
    head
    ache
    2. The terms which contain exact match of the tokens formed should be fetched from the database
    (i.e)
    i. the token should appear in the term as such and no alpha-numeric character should be appended to it but a single space or any single non alpha-numeric characer is allowed
    ii. the token may occur anywhere in the string.(like start, end, middle etc.)
    iii. the term should contain all the tokens
    For ex. the following terms will be fetched for the above input
    1. patient has severe head ache
    2. severe, head ache are present
    3. leg pain "severe" #head pain
    4. pain, severe in head, leg
    But following terms should not be fetched
    1. severe leg pain - (it does not have the token 'head')
    2. headache severe and leg pain - (head is a part of the word headache)
    3. head67 severe pain - (head is a part of the word head67)
    Thanks
