Rule Modeler / Action Profile

Hi all,
What is the difference between Action Profile & Rule Modeler features ?
Thanks,
Eli

Hello, Eli.
I'll try to explain. But on my mind the shortest answer would be: 'They are totally different'. Means they are used for totally different purposes.
Action Profile is used to do something (actually whatever you want, but mainly for print out, sending mails, changing statuses, creating subsequent documents) regarding particular business transaction. It can be triggered automatically (for instance, on document save or by the report) or manually. Based on some conditions (mainly information from the document) or without them.
Rule Modeler is used to create some rules. They are actually triggered by events which a rule engine listens (subscribes) to. After an event is triggered the rule engine check conditions defined in the rule (conditions can be based on any information in the system). And if conditions' check is passed then the rule engine calls defined method (there are some standard but you can extend the line).

  • New Context for 'Problems' in Rule modeler not working

    Hi,
    I am using the Rule modeler to determine the Service team based on selected Categorization schema for Incidents - it's working fine. Now I want to implement the same for Problems
    I created a new Z Context (Master Request) to create a rule policy for Problems -> assigned rule policy to a ZServ.Mgr.Profile Unfortunately the rule policy is not working for problems. The new ZContext was copied from existing SERVICEREQUEST context which also copied all the services within.
    Am I missing something ? Please help.
    BR.
    P.S incidents have an action definition with method DISPATCH that determines service team - same has been assigned to Problems.

    Had to use 2 Dispatch methods to determine the service team.

  • Routing Service tickets using Rule Modeler

    Hi experts,
      We plan to use Rule Modeler for routing Service tickets created in Interaction center.
    But, I am not aware of how it can be done. Could you let me know how this can be done?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Raj

    Hi Raj
    There is an "Escalate" button on the Service ticket. If you are planning to use that then heres how to configure routing using rules policy:
    Business Role: IC_Manager
    1. Open search in the rule modeler, select the context ID ORDER and start the search.
    2. Select the policy DEFAULT and configure it to meet your business requirements by creating rules and assigning relevant conditions and actions.
    To create your own policy.
    IMG > Customer Relationship Management --> E-Mail Response Management System --> Service Manager --> Define Service Manager Profiles.
    To forward to an organization, use the object type "O".
    I hope this helps

  • Regarding Rule Modeler

    Hi All,
    Here we are facing a different problem in Rule Modeler.
    We are using ICWC 5.0 Version.I have added one category in Category Modeler and that Category should be Routed automatically to a particular group.So in Rule Modeler i have added that categories defined condition and actions so for that categories after defining when i am creating the service ticket after classifying all the categories when i click save and Assign it is shwing a message that "No routing has been maintained" Actually it should rout to that particular group where i have defined in Rule modeler.Kindly suggest me any more settings are required for automatic routing.
    Regards
    Sekhar.

    Hi,
    In your rule modeler screen ..what is the category you are assigning and are you storing it in the subject profile codes?
    please check for a subject profile assignement in your rule modeler.
    I hope it helps

  • Logical M:N Relation with Delete Rule:"NO ACTION" creates "CASCADE" FK

    I think I've detected a bug in the generation of FK when we have"N: N" relations, give me idea that the delete rule that is defined in the relationship of logical model is ignored.
    So I give you a small example to reproduce it:
    I've a simple example of 2 entities:
    Logical Model:
    Entity_A(#id_a, desc)
    Entity_B(#id_b, desc)
    M:N Relation between Entity_A and Entity_B (REL_A_B) with Delete Rule: "NO ACTION".
    When apply "Engineer to Relational Model" I've as result 3 tables:
    Relational Model:
    Entity_A(#id_a, desc)
    Entity_B(#id_b, desc)
    REL_A_B(#id_a, #id_b) but the generated foreign keys are defined using Delete rule "CASCADE".
    Is not supposed to have been generated with delete rule "NOT ACTION"?
    As result the generation of DDL scripts is creating FKs with the clause " ON DELETE CASCADE", which was not originally intended.
    I try to change this value in logical model but I've seen not effect on result.
    I hope I have helped!

    Hi Ariel,
    thanks for reporting the problem. I assume it's for Data Modeler 3.3.
    I logged a bug for that.

  • Rules in Org profile

    Hi Forum,
    Can two rules be assigned to one org profile? I have defined two rules : one for Org data determination and one for agent determination and have assigned both to org profile as model type and responsibility type. The rule for org data determination is triggering org units in the transaction but the rule for agent determination is only working in pfac and not in the transaction.So please clarify whether it is logical to assign two rules to org profile?? and will both of them are executed within the org profile when the profile is executed when i create a transaction.
    Regards
    Shridhar

    As far as I have learnt, at a time only one rule type can be used.

  • Conditions in rule modeler based on user status

    Hi there,
    We work with incidents and problems in CRM 7.0 and I want to create a rule in the rule modeler based on the user status on my problem ZITP. But when creating the conditions I only get the standard user status from status profile IT00001, -2 and -3. I have created my own Z-status profiles, but I can't select them here.
    Any suggestions ?
    Best regards
    Annette

    Indeed,
    The coding in CL_CRM_SRQM_RULE_FIS_US_STATUS seems a little hardcoded to the standard status schema.
    SELECT stsma estat txt30 FROM tj30t INTO TABLE lt_status WHERE spras = sy-langu AND stsma LIKE *'IT%*'. "#EC CI_GENBUFF
    LIKE 'IT%' makes me think that all user status schemas starting with IT are selected, and not your Z-schema.
    My best guess would be to either create an OSS message to SAP, or create your own class (like the one mentioned, with just slightly different coding), and in customizing (check the note where it mentions settings to ORDER_STATUS_E), assign your own class and reset the valuet to "dropdown box".
    This should fix your problem.

    Pieter

  • CRM Rules for actions

    All,
    In some of the default action profiles of SAP, rules are applied - which you can see in the Processing Type.
    I'd like to have a more detailed look on these rules, but have no clue how.
    Can somebody tell me the transaction I need to use for this or another way how to see those details!
    All help is highly appreciated!
    Thanks and best regards,
    Roel

    Dear Friend.
    The transaction for rules is PFAC
    for e.g for support team derivation we use a standard rule 132*** can check the same...based upon the criteria entered say for specific IBase a responsiblity will be assigned to it.
    we can use this rule to fill the support team
    So whenver that specific  IBase comp is selected the assigned Responsiblity will get determined in the service desk ticket based upon the rule.
    Please assign Pts.

    WHat i m doing is.
    The action profile is configured with new Z class and Z method. CL_DOC_PROCESSING_CRM_ORDER and CRM_SRVORDER_EXEC_SMART_FORM.
    But when i click the button in the Order, i m able to save the pdf in local drive, but an error is coming in the Order page(at the bottom) "Action could not be executed successfully".
    The action has been setup with "Printonly" and "Smartforms print" in customization.
    I have a dount whether, this action Printonly is only to print the smartform ??? Or can we use just to save the smartform in pdf.
    But when i remove the pdf conversion and save dialog and try to print it directly, Its printing the smartform. No errors are coming.
    But guys, please help me on this. I have tried all the tricks i know.

  • Follow up task without using the action profile

    Hi,
    Is it possible to create the follow up task without using the action profile? If so, please let me know how we can do that?
    as per the requirements, i have to the custom coding that will automatically create follow-on task triggered by status change on the all the transaction type. Please guide me how can we do that.
    Task details (task id, description), I'm reading it from the custom table.
    Thanks for your help.
    Regards,
    Vaibhav

    Thanks Naresh for the response.
    Not sure if I can use the CRMV_EVENT. Even I'm not aware how to use that. Let me tell what i am doing in the logic.
    - implementing the logic in the badi order_save (method - CHECK_BEFORE_SAVE)
    - get the header and item details using the FM CRM_ORDER_READ.
    - get the status of header / item from the output of CRM_ORDER_READ.
    - compare the status with the custom table (having info of hearder type, item type, status, tast id, task description etc)
    - if status is different, create the task using the details from the custom table.
    now i want to write the logic to implement the last step. Do we have any standard FM where I can pass the task ID and it will create the task? Please help.
