Sales Employee in Outlook Integration

I would like to check in Outlook Integration that the Sales Employee field is available for usage when synching Activites, meetings, etc.

Hi,
What I mean is that there is no special sales employee synch but it is included in the 4th area mentioned in my previous answer.
Based on OI ppt file :
Data synchronization between SAP Business One and Microsoft Outlook comprises the synchronizing of the following items.
MS Outlook Calendar appointments --> SAP Business One Activities (Meetings / Phone Calls).
MS Outlook Tasks --> SAP Business One Activity (Task).
MS Outlook Contacts --> SAP Business One Business Partner / Contact Person.
To define which of these are synchronized, you choose from specific criteria for each of these items.
These criteria (default settings) are grouped into the following categories:
General settings, for example, what kind of item (appointments, contacts, and/or tasks) will be synchronized.
Calendar-specific settings, for example, the date range of the appointments that will be synchronized.
Contact-specific settings, for example, only the contacts belonging to a specific business partner will be synchronized.
Task-specific settings, for example, only open tasks will be synchronized.
Scheduling settings, for example, you can schedule an automatic data synchronization every time you log on to SAP Business One
Conflict resolution settings, for example, when two different system copies exist for the same appointment (one in SAP Business One and one in Microsoft Outlook), you decide which system data is written to the other system.
There are two main settings for performing a synchronization, these are synchronize and quick synchronize.
The main difference between the two being when you choose quick synchronize data between SBO and Microsoft Outlook are synchronized without the user being prompted by the system to check the criteria for the synchronization. Whereas when you select synchronization the user is prompted to check the criteria of the synchronization. In the next demonstration we will set up and run the synchronization.
So, I guess the sales employee synch included in the 4th area I have mentioned.

Restriction per sales employee in outlook integration in SBO

Is there a way in outlook integration to restrict a sales employee (SBO User) to choose BPs/Calender or tasks asociated with him/her in SBO.

Yes there is one USER AUTHORIZATION but I'm now sure that it is working.
One one the sales employee for my customer is unable to save emails as activities in Outlook if the authorization is set to NO AUTHORIZATION, even if the customer in SAP is linked to him...
Can anyone help please ?
Thanks,

Outlook Integration - email as Activity of Sales Opportunity

Hello all,
Is there an option to attach an email from Outlook to Sales Opportunity as Activity? Outlook Integration offers a lot of document type, business partners, items, etc., but not Sales Oportunity.
I really need it for our customer so any ideas how to make it are welcome.
Regards, Roman

I haven't found any solution for adding an activity to a sales opportunity with the DIAPI except direct update of the DB. It's not even possible to add a "Follow Up" activity to activity linked to a sales opportunity, DIAPI loose link to sales opportunity.
According to [1075696|Link activity to an opportunity level DIAPI; and [966860|Adding Activity to Sales Opportunity stage; it is still not possible to do that in DIAPI
Interesting that in the DTW we can do that...

OutLook Integration Add-On

Hi there,
There is a post about enhancements of OutLook Integration Add-On from a Chinese Partner.
outlook integration addon 的应用实施及产品功能探讨
Translation as below:
1.Offline access: Enable quotation creation even OI is not connected to B1 .Many sales people has no iternect access in travel.
2.Connection in VPN: B1 client connect fast in VPN, but OI take time to connect.
3.Email Signature: They would like to use the default email account's signature, thus they have to modify the qutotation email with their own signature by manual.

Hi,
For initialization error, this is a solution from SAP Note:
Solution
1) Check on your MS SQL Server (Enterprise Manager) your server and use the right mouse click and choose "Properties". Select the
"Security" Tab and then select under Authentification "SQL Server and Windows". Change if not selected and try to start the addons again.
2) In the "Choose Company" (Administration>Choose Company) choose Current Server "Change" make sure that the "Use Trusted Connection" is de-selected. De-select and try to start again.
3) When you start SAP Business One in the initial Logon Screen in the left corner make sure that the "Use NT Authentification" is de-selected.
For resource error, the solution from SAP note:
This error usualy occurs after an upgrade. To resolve this error, please do the following:
   1. Locate the Temp folder by going to Start -> Run and type %temp%.
   2. Locate the SM_OBS_DLL folder and rename it.
   3. Uninstall the DI API from Add/Remove Programs.
   4. Install the DI API from the latest patch.
   5. Connect to the addon again and the SM_OBS_DLL folder will be recreated and replaced with the latest version. You should now be able to connect sucessfully.

We have this scenario in our company.
1.A Employee is hired using the HR module and h gets a personnel number.2.we maintain infotype 0900 "Sales Data" for this employee here we
select his Sales Org , Sales Office , Sales Group.
3.We want to send some samples to this employee on his communication
address maintained in HR by creating a sales order in the SD module.
4.i tried various search in this site and other forums to find out how
a employee can be used as a customer but was not able to find much.
5.Request your help to tell me how to use a employee hired thru HR in
the SD module for order creation etc.Please send/direct me to documents if

Pravin

Hi Everyone
Thanks for your replies but i am still confused as to why i have to create a customer again for this sales employee whom i hired in HR . I mean cant i create a sales order directly against this sales employee ?.
You see if i have to create a customer again then i have to put in all the details again. I am trying to eliminate the need of typing in the communication address etc from HR again. We found people make mistakes during data entry and then there is inconsistency between data in HR and data in SD.
Like I want to be able to create a sales order on a sales employeei hired in HR and any changes done in HR should flow seamlessly to SD for these guys as after all both these moduls SD and HR are said to b integrated ?
Waiting for your inputs
Regards

Replicating partner function (VE=sales employee) from CRM to ECC

Hello, we managed to replicate the ECC customers and contact persons to SAP CRM.
Now we also want to replicate to CRM the partner functions (VE = sales employee) of ECC that are linked to the customer in the sales view. When I replicate the object customer_rel they are not synchronised to CRM. I have maintainted the 'distribution of partner functions from SAP ECC into CRM and vice versa in SPRO.
What are the different steps that I need to do? What am I missing?
Should we be alble to see those relationships on BP in CRM once synchronised? If yes, in which relationship? Since the employee responsible is already filled manually for another function.
Thanks for your help on replicating partner functions from CRM to ECC?
Kr, Anouck

Hi Anouck.
If I've understood correctly, for that you must pass the employees from ECC to CRM first.
You can do this by running report RHALEINI at ECC side, but you must configure some things first (like creating a CRM grouping to indicate the number range for employees, and to activate at CRM side this integration)
Kind regards,

Access to business partners denied.User "so and so" is not a sales employee

Hi all,
I was trying to create a snapshot in outlook in a users computer but unfortunately the system displays a strange message:
Access to business partners denied.User "so and so" is not a sales employee
The user is a member of Sales Employees/Buyers-well what i mean is that the sales name is there but not user name ie Frank Blank is there but not FrankB for example.
Any ideas ?
Thank you,
MB

Hi Matthew,
Interesting message as we use the O/I ad-on... on the EMD record, go to the Membership tab and add 'Sales Employee' under "Role" to the EMD record. Shot in the dark but that's all I got.

Sending Sales Order via Outlook

Apologies if this is not the correct forum to post this question.
We are trying to use outlook as the default email system to send Sales Order, PO's, Invoices, etc.
We have tried the Outlook Integration to get a not so complete solution.
We are now trying to B1 Print & Delivery from Boyum, and we can make the document be saved in the drafts folder in Outlook. This is again a half solution.
Is there a macro that we can use to open the outlook window with the attachment and the send to: address and be able to actually see what is going to get be sent via email and add any text?
Thank you,
Eddy

Clientbased Outlook-Integration: Import Contacts/Accounts from CRM to Outlo

Hi,
I set up the clientbased Outlook-Integration von CRM 2007. Everything works fine besides the synchronization of Contacts/Accounts from CRM to Outlook.
What are the requirements for a contact to be imported to Outlook?
Can anybody help?
Thanks in advance,
Ben.

Ben,
the standard relationship for this is BUR011. we have given a customizing under SPRO where you can maintain that.
Once that is done the contacts where the logged-in employee is correctly assigned to would go to the outlook folder.
if that does not work pls send me an e-mail and we can check your system remotely

Does the Outlook Integration Standalone add-on work over HTTPS?

We have a customer who is using MS CRM over HTTPS for out of the network access to Outlook and MS CRM within Outlook.
Does anyone know whether the SAP Outlook Integration Standalone add-on for 2007A will operate (sync/save email as activity etc) using a HTTPS connection?
Many Thanks
Brodie

Dear Brodie,
SAP Business One Outlook Integration (Standalone) needs to have Microsoft Outlook installed on the workstation.
Refer to [http://service.sap.com/smb/sbo/documentation|http://service.sap.com/smb/sbo/documentation].
So if the locally installed Microsoft Outlook is able to connect to (for excample) an Exchange Server in order to sync its own emails, then its no problem for Outlook Integration too.
By the way:
I think it was originally developed for Sales persons, who are visiting their customers, but either no or very limited bandwith is available in order to connect to any network outside the local Intranet. These Sales persons does not need to have a SAP Business One client installed on their laptop, but only the Standalone version of Outlook Integration (OI) and Microsoft Outlook itself.
So far as I can see the aim of OI is beeing able to work without any network access when onsite.

Can BC tie into a POS System (Micros or Aloha) to track sales, employee performance etc.

Just wondering if anyone else has been asked this question or knows the answer.
"Can BC tie into a POS System (Micros or Aloha) to track sales, employee performance etc."

While you're waiting on an answer from the community I'd like to share the link with you that will give you an idea of what's possible to integrate. This is the list of all BC web services - https://worldsecuresystems.com/catalystwebservice/catalystcrmwebservice.asmx
Anything you are able to obtain through those services can be integrated. I don't see how employee performance can be integrated.
Cheers,

CRM EmployeeResponsible of BP replicated to ECC Sales Employee error

Hi Experts,
We are integrating CRM 7.0 with ERP 6.0 and make CRM act as a leading system.
BP is created in CRM to have field Employee Responsible. And the relationship "Has the Employee Responsible" and its sales organization has been maintained with Partner Function = 'Sales Representative'. On saving this BP, it is supposed to have this customer created in ECC and have partner function 'PE' (Sales employee) to be the responsible employee.
However in CRM we get an error message for this BDOC,
Deletion not allowed: SP is mandatory function
(Error message: F2 609)
Any hint will be helpful.
Thanks in advance

Hi Kai,
Thanks for your reply.
But we already have those mappings in both CRM and ECC side and all of them are standard, since we do not have any custom partner functions.
Fortunately, we have succeeded to solve this issue by removing the "unique" flag for "Sold-to party", and importing note 1392878 to solve the problem of changing and deleting issue of relationship/partner function in CRM.
To setting unique flag for "Sold-to party", it is in ECC, view V_TPAR.
By the way, we also have Note 497146 - Relationship remains in CRM aft downld partner functn deltn implemented in our CRM. But not sure whether it is working.

Customer Creation for a Sales Employee

Hi
I want to raise a sales order for some samples on a Employee in our HR syayetm
Please tell me do i have to Create a Customer for a Sales Employee who has been hired in HR .
regards
Pravin

Hi Saurabh
That is bad then what is this integration between HR and SD that SAP talks about useful for ?
Like a user will hire a person in HR and then someone will have to enter most of the same data again in SD.
I had read somewhere that you can create a sales order on a employee without creating a customer that is by using something they call partner functions.
could you ask some of your friends/colleagues and let me know?

Do you plan on unscrewing up your MS Outlook integration?

I am really appalled at the pitiful MS Outlook integration. Really I can't create entries with reminders, you moved all my appointments and you didn't notify me of squat. Good work Apple you've juiced the fruit and left us the core. Thanks for that rainy cloud.

Thanks your reply, Jeff. I take your point and to be clear, I did enter into my iPhone purchase with my eyes open - I knew from my research and from talking to others that a few things wouldn't work.
My point in return - in case anybody from Apple is reading this - is that there are a heck of a lot of business people like me who would dearly love to dump their BBs and switch to iPhone, and It seems to me that the necessary missing features would not take that much effort to fix.
Like any engineering company, I understand that Apple's R&D dollars are finite and priorities must be determined. My suggestion to them is that adding the Outlook integration features would leverage a lot more sales than, for instance, adding MMS or a videocam or any of the other "missing" features.
Or maybe Apple is happy to let third parties fill the gap? e.g. Hyperoffice:

Event of Sending Mail From Outlook Integration Add-On

Dear Experts,
I am not able to find the event if I am sending mail from outlook integration add-on. Suppose I open a Sales Order that already entered and click on Mail Menu and click on 'Send' Button (Form Type = 188). It sends the mail successfully from Outlook but I am not able to use the event after that while it shows me operation completed successfully.
I am writting it as follows:
if (pVal.FormType == 188 && pVal.ActionSuccess == true && pVal.EventType == BoEventTypes.et_ITEM_PRESSED && pVal.ItemUID == "1")
I have used it on Form Data Event too but no success.
if (BusinessObjectInfo.BeforeAction == false)
                switch (BusinessObjectInfo.EventType)
                    case BoEventTypes.et_FORM_DATA_ADD:
                            switch (BusinessObjectInfo.FormTypeEx)
                                        Case "188":
                                        }break;
