Regarding CRM EIC where i am unable to display HCM processes in IC Appl

Hello Colleagues,
I am working on CRM_EIC.
There is an issue where i am unable to display HCM Processes in the IC application.
I have launched the application from CRM system thru the t-code "WUI", and selected the business role "IC_EIC_AGENT".
Given the pernr and confirmed and in "service request" in "Business Context"tab, selected "HCM Process" and click on New,
it connects to the ERP system for the HR processes data , it doesn't display the list of processes.
CRM System:QOM/508
ERP system: QV5/004
Can you please help regarding the above issue.
Thanks in advance.
Kind Regards,
Gayathri.

Hi Vinod,
Thanks much for the response. I had not looked at the sap note earlier on, saw it after your reply.
However, we are not using IE7.0 yet. I would like to mention here that independent of the portal, when I launch the CRM IC Webclient on any browser, it appears well and good, but when launched from within Enterprise Portal, page appears minus the toolbar. Do you have any idea/pointers on the same. However I plan to get the notes correction done and would like to thank you for an useful answer.
Pls do let me know if there is anything missing on EP 7.0 or CRM 2007 that needs to be done additionally.
Thanks and regards,
Anupama

  • What is Item Category in SAP CRM ? Where exactly it will be useful ?

    What is Item Category in SAP CRM ? Where exactly it will be useful ?  Please explain in detail.
    Edited by: Rajanand Tadakamadla on Nov 6, 2010 12:46 PM

    Hello Rajanand,
    1. Item Category :
    You define the item categories for business transactions.Like transaction types, an item category is assigned to one or more business transaction categories
    An item category specifies the properties and attributes of a business transaction item, and therefore controls how the item is processed
    First, you assign the item category to an item object type. The item object type defines the business context in which an item category is used.
    ExampleBUS200140- CRM Service Product Item.
    2. Item Category Group
    With the help of the item category group, you review the various products from a business view for item category determination. Enter the item category group for each product in the product master.(T Code COMMPR01)
    During business transaction processing, the system creates the item category from the item category group for the product, and from the business transaction category, and proposes it in the document.
    You can assign item categories to business transaction types and item category groups in the process Maintain item category determination.
    3.Item Categories Usages
    The item category usage is generally used for items that do not refer to a product (for example, Free Items, text items).
    The item category usage is assigned to the respective transaction types when the item category is determined. When processing documents, the system determines the item category from the transaction type and item category group or the item category usage and proposes it in the document.

  • Regarding CRM extraction.....

    Hi Gurus,
    I have few questions regarding CRM extraction.
    Q1: If we enhance a CRM transactional Datasource, do we have to write the ABAP logic in SE19 or CMOD or both?
    Q2: If we enhance a CRM MasterData Datasource, do we have to write the ABAP logic in SE19 or CMOD or both?
    Q3: What is the significance of the T-CODES BWA1, BWA5, BWA7 ?
    Q4: When do you implement the BADI CRM_BWA_MFLOW and when do we implement the BADI CRM_BWA_SFLOW and when do we implement both of them?
    Q5: What is the significance of the function module CRM_BADI_GET_BDOC? Is there any other function module which is used in CRM extraction that has to be implemented in coding?

  • Regarding CRM ICWC

    Hi friends
    I am new in this can any one send me the material regarding the Transaction Launcher, BOR object so that i can work in Interaction Center .
    Any material regarding CRM ICWC will give me a grate help.
    My id is :[email protected]
    Thanks in advance
    Regards
    Pulkit Agrawal

    Hi John,
    In CRM 2007, it will be more easier than CRM_ICWC_TEST parameter.
    If there is an TEXT box or table grid, you may put cursor in the TEXT box, or select the row of the grid, and press F2, then you will have a popup with all info you needed, more than the view info itself.
    For example, in IC Webclient, Service Orders, Overview,
    If you put cursor in Description text box, press F2, you will find
    Component = ICCMP_BTSHEAD
    View = BTSHeader
    Something like this.
    Then you will be able to display the configuration in
    transaction bsp_wd_cmpwb, by enter component, and Display button.
    Then expand the view folder, and find the BTSHeader.
    CRM 2007 has quite different structure. Thus we might have to do things bit differently.

    This is some built-in "protection" that was engineered into Shockwave some years ago. It means that SW will ignore the first 10 script errors then throw the dialogue you are seeing. You really will have to contact the developer of the content in question to have it fixed - there's nothing anyone else can do. The developer needs to replicate your error, determine the cause, rectify it and republish their movie

  • CRM PCUI (Imp):   Adding new fields  &  Webpage display in ODC1

    Hi Gurus,
    Plz help in these PCUI related configurations:
    <b>Query 1</b>.
    PCUI: Adding ‘custom created’ field in a new TAB (BSP Iview)
    Steps Done
    a. “Custom field” defined in an object (say Opportunity)
    b. An ‘event’ created.
    c. A ‘Group Tab Page’ created
    d. A ‘Field group‘ created and a new ‘field name’ added to the “field group” … (What structure need to be added to this field group?)
    e. Entry made in ‘Application Layout’ for an application i.e. event / position / screen element / tab page / structure…. (Again what structure to be added?)
    To handle this new field & tab, plz advice
    1. What needs to be entered in the screen structure? Do we need to create this structure?
    2. The required the model access class defined for the screen structure.  
    3. Any changes required in the controllers
    <u><i>(Where is the linking between “custom field’ defined in the opportunity object and the “new field entry” made in the filed group)</i></u>
    <b>Query 2.</b>
    Calling a webpage in a tab (ODC1, Detail area)
    Opening a webpage in an iview can be done easily by reating a URL iview.
    If the requirement is to open a web page in ODC1, than what are the steps required for the same?
    e.g. On clicking a ‘user defined tab’ the webpage should open in the “detail area 1”.
    <b>Query 3.</b>

    Will the added filed be available in PCUI screen also?

  • Unable to display a PDF image on the page - Mac 10.6

    Hi,
    Running an iMac with 10.6.8 and Indesign 5.0.4. Just wanting to export a PDF as per usual via File > Export function. However, I keep getting the error message, "Unable to display a PDF image on the page'. No idea what this is and have never seen this error before. The only info on the internet reveals error code 0x2511(9489).
    I've deleted prefs, closed down and re-opened Indesign and even restarted the computer. I've also re-linked the images contained in the document and even created a new document and set it up the same, but still the same problem. Investigating further, other Indesign documents still export properly.
    The only ones that don't export are 2 documents, both giving this same error message. Both documents are ones where a client has sent a PDF, I've imported into two of these into an 2-page A4 Indesign document (each PDF is 48MB each) and then just added a text layer (using Times) which is properly installed on the computer. I basically have to 'update' course dates for the client and add PDF to the website, all very basic.
    I've tried importing a jpeg and other PDFs into the file (replacing the existing ones) and they export fine.
    All my software is legal and I've exported this document before now in exactly the same File > Export without any problems (under 10.5 and 10.6).
    OK... I've just imported the offending PDFs into Acrobat, optimized and shrunk the file size, re-imported back to Indesign and the PDF export works fine. So it seems InDesign / PDF Export doesn't like large imported PDFs? I think they were originally exported from Publisher, so maybe that's the problem or a file conflict somehow.
    Any ideas on the culprit? I've googled it, searched these forums and Apple discussions and haven't found anything. Although I've found a workaround, I do get large files to import and then export. Thanks for any help
    Steve

    It does sound like a problem with the original PDF files the client sent you. You can check how they were made in Acrobat Pro from the Additional MetaData button on the Description tab of the document properties dialog. It will be under Advanced at the bottom of the list when the metadata opens.
    You might be able to salvage them by running the optimzer and not changing the size, or just doing a Save As in Acrobat.

    As seen above execute() method has two parameters "in" of type
    InputStream and "out" of type OutputStream. First we get a new instance
    of SAXParserFactory and from this one we create a new Instance of
    SAXParser. To the Parse Method of SaxParser, we pass two parameters,
    inputstream "in" and the class variable "handler".
    Method "write" is a user defined method, which is used to write the
    string "s" to the outpurstream "out".
         private void write(String s) throws SAXException {
              try {
                   out.write(s.getBytes());
                   out.flush();
              } catch (IOException e) {
                   throw new SAXException("I/O error", e);
         public void startDocument() throws SAXException {
              write("");
              write(lineEnd);
              write("");
              write(lineEnd);
         public void endDocument() throws SAXException {

              } catch (IOException e) {
                   throw new SAXException("I/O error", e);
         public void startElement(String namespaceURI, String sName, String qName,
                   Attributes attrs) throws SAXException {
              String eName = sName;
              if ("".equals(eName))
                   eName = qName;
              if (eName.equals("NUMBER1"))
                   input1 = true;
              if (eName.equals("NUMBER2"))
                   input2 = true;
         public void endElement(String namespaceURI, String sName, String qName)
                   throws SAXException {
              String eName = sName;

                   eName = qName;
              if (eName.equals("NUMBER1"))

  • MS Notepad unable to display the Chinese characters I type and display them as squares

    MS Notepad is unable to display the Chinese characters I type and display them as squares. But when I copy those squares on notepad to Wordpad or MS Word, they display the Chinese characters just fine. I've no idea why those Chinese characters I type can't display properly on notepad. I check the font of the notepad and it's the default. I've another Windows Vista desktop computer which has notepad of the similar setting and display Chinese characters just fine. Both are using Chinese (Simplified) - Microsoft Pinyin New Experience Input Style to input those characters. But I don't understand why my Windows 7 is facing this problem.

    Hi,
    Notepad is a very simple text editor BUT it will work if you use the SAME language in Windows. Please try:
    1. go to control panel, click "Clock, Language, and Region"
    2. click "Change location" under the "Region" section
    3. go to the "administrative" tab, then click "change system locale...", then select "Chinese".
    Regards.

  • Where to repair Powerbook G4 display

    I have a powerbook G4 with screen problems. the lower half of the screen is grayed out but displays to an external screen fine (i.e. projector in a lecture hall). I have taken it in to an Apple Authorized re-seller/repair but they say the machine is vintage and can't be repaired. What exactly does this mean? I have tried the help line and they were incompetent and unable to answer the question. I searched high and low on the web page for an appropriate e-mail address to ask this question but was unsuccessful (which of course put me in a very foul mood that I had to call the help line which is not convenient FOR ME -THE CUSTOMER!). I have been a loyal customer of Apple for over 20 years and proudly display my Powerbook in front of 1000's of university students but right now, with the above recent experiences, I am seriously rethinking my apple loyalty. So does anyone have an alternative suggestion as to where to get my powerbook repaired if not an authorized apple re-seller/repair? And does anyone know how many years it is before Apple decides one of its products (laptop computer specifically) is vintage and can no longer be repaired? The answer to this question will determine whether or not I will ever buy Apple again.

    You can buy a warranty extension plan from Apple anytime in the first year of ownership to extend your hardware and software warranty to 3 years from date of computer's purchase. AppleCare, which is this program can be reached here:
    http://www.apple.com/contact/phone_contacts.html
    Sometimes out of warranty Macs are eligible for a free extension/repair program listed here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/exchange_repair/
    Apple will repair any display of any age they have parts for but at a cost if it is obviously a non-warranty issue or beyond the warranty period.
    7 years typically is a time frame for many Macs to reach end of life status, but it varies depending on the product. Some authorized service centers are better than others in keeping in stock old parts. AppleCare itself when you call them can often tell you if the parts are available for them to repair from. But because the parts cost so much to make, there comes a point of diminishing returns, where a high priced repair makes it cost more to repair than to replace. Apple does have a recycling program when you buy a new Mac:
    http://www.apple.com/environment/recycling/
    These vendors will repair Apple displays out of warranty often for less than Apple:
    http://www.dttservice.com/
    http://www.powerbookresq.com/
    http://www.microdocusa.com/
    http://www.macspecialist.com/
    http://www.techrestore.com/
    Apple has few e-mail addresses for programs such as MobileMe, and iTunes Music Store, but not for computer repairs. Their support phone numbers are available 7 days a week, 12 hours a day.
