Open Channel in Campaign execution

Question

dear experts,
i want to used the open channel in campagin execution for sending message to the other system. basicly it will generate the xml file in the server.
in order to do that, i made a badi implementation of CRM_MKT_EXP_CAMP_DAT and made some code in its method EXPORT_CAMPAIGN_DATA.
beside that i also add a new communication channel in campaign execution.
and for the form, i made a form with general usage and plain text type.
i test the badi in campaign by selecting 'Target Group to Channel' in the menus after select the target segment.
in the testing, i faced an error and if i trace the error using tx SLG1 there is 2 messages found, that is:
1. <number> partners in the target group is not contacted
2. error determining call times for open channel for target group
is there any clue why i face this error ?
is there any documentation for implementing the open channel in campaign ?
please help
many thanks in advance

Hi.
Go to SPRO: CRM > Marketing > Marketing Planning and Campaign Management > Campaign Execution > Define Communication Medium
Here if you are on CRM 7.0 release you already have a communication medium of example: ACTV, that generates documents of type 0010.
You must create your own communication medium, with communication method "Generate contact" and indicate which transaction type should be generated. In your case, set here your visit document type.
Then you create a campaign for this communication method, assign a target group and execute campaign.
After job execution if you check the last documents created on CRMD_ORDERADM_H table, you will see the generated visits.
