SAP CRM 7.0 and BW 3.5 - BI_CONT 353?

Hello all!!
We have CRM 7.0 and BW 3.5 with BI_CONT 353 SP 10. Users need to analyze their CRM transactions but we cannot upgrade BW for now. The CRM 7.0 Master guide says install BI_CONT 7.04. Is there a documentation in order to identify the gaps between BI_CONT 353 and BI_CONT 7.04? Can I activate the business content and use the data flow with this limitations?
Thanks for your replies.

Hi,
Take a look at the docs below.

  • Difference between SAP-CRM 2007 UI and previous version UI.

    hi,
    anyone knows the differences difference between SAP-CRM 2007 UI and previous version UI.
    anykind of links or files are helpful.
    regards.
    raman.

    Hi,
    actually quite a late response and I think all the rather technically focuses comments have already been given, incl. the link to a really good slide deck, that explains all the technical architecture details on what exactly we did.
    From an end user perspective some other statements on what we did:
    (1) From an information architecture and visualization perspective we acted based on feedback from our customers in the last years, which led to some restructuring of the screen, e.g. moving the navigation bar from the top area of the screen (horizontal) to the left hand side --> sounds simple but users tend to have problem seeing thing at the top of the screen. We also decided to arrange the information for e.g. an account or an opportunity not in a tab oriented format. Again usability tests in CRM had shown that users often find it hard to see and understand that tabs contain additional information. We now show the details in assignment blocks below the header information in a scrollable format. Vertical scrolling is a behavior of a screen that most users know from their internet experience. Those are just two exampels of what we did in this area
    (2) We also have put a large focus on well known web behaviors, like drag & drop and personalization in general, knowing that on the one hand side, no matter what standard UI we deliver, users tend to adapt it exactly based on their needs and wishes. So you will find really easy to understand personalization options everywhere in the new CRM Web Client UI. To achieve this we used lots of web 2.0 techologies that enable especially these easy interactive capabilitites.
    (3) Finally, and this relates directly to the arguments mentioned in (2) we focused as well on really easy UI configuration. Again, in every customer project user interface changes are made, to adapt the SAP default to the customers needs. here we invested a lot to make the 60-80% most common UI changes done in projects as easy as possible, that even non-technical people can generally do it (like Power users).
    Hope this clarifies some arguments what from the users point of view has been done and what the advantages are.
    When you follow the same link as mentioned by Nadine above, you can also find a presentation UI Concept, which explains all the details rather from a users perspective.
    Best regards and enjoy the new UI ..and every feedback is very much welcome, only with your feedback we can improve the solution even more.

  • SAP CRM 7.0 and Enterprise Portal

    Dear SAP Gurus ,
    I have question about the New CRM WEB UI and integration to SAP Enterprise Portal .
    We have been using the SAP Enterprise portal for accesing the SAP CRM functionalities before (eg create Opporutnites and Sales Order ). But with the New SAP version(7.0 and 2007 ) its possible to  have its own portal.
    Now the question is it possible to integrate the NEW SAP WEB UI into the existing portal ? Eg: If we want to have link in Enterprise portal with the Sales Order create functionalyt direlty without going into the stand alone  CRM WEB UI  . Would it be possible to directly call the Sales order service WEB UI in enterprise portal . Right now what we see is that the NEW CRM WEB UI is stand alone and for these type of fuctionalites the user need to login to the NEW web ui and then go to the create sales order screen .
    Is it possible to directly embed the new UI components in the existing SAP enterprise portal ?
    Many Thank for your kind advise !
    Best Regards,
    Ankur

    Ankur,
    Once you have correctly integrated to Portal following the SAP Note, you will no longer see the CRM Navigation. They will be Portal Navigation. If you have read and understood the note, it will be clear. On an overview, let me explain the steps involved.
    1. You create a CRM role (based on some job role) say "Sales Rep" and have configured the CRM Web UI for all the navigation and applications. Like Account maintenance, Opportunities, Sales order create etc. etc.
    2. Following the note and running a CRM transaction, you will now "Export" this CRM role to an external file. This file is very similar to a "business package". All the portal roles, pages, iVeiws etc. get created.
    3. You will now "Import" this into your portal. Again follow the notes to know the loaction.
    4. In the portal, you will assign this "portal role" to your users.
    When these users log on to portal, they will see Portal Navigation (not the CRM navigation). So, the main point lies in defining the CRM role and get it working.
    Hope you get the point....

  • SQVI Report for SAP CRM Product Hierarchy and its Product

    Hi
    How to create a SQVI report for generating a list for SAP CRM Product Hierarchy which should show the outputs->Level 1, level 2, level 3 and level 4 categories and its products?
    I tried COMM_Hierarchy table and Comm_product but not able to achieve this requirement.
    or Is there any chance of getting related tables so that I could try more for this requirement.
    In which table both product id and its category Id can be found?
    Pravin

  • Locking issue SAP CRM 4.0 and SAP R/3 ECC 5.0

    Hi all, I have a problem that I would like to share before creating any OSS message. I have connected our CRM 4.0 environment to our new SAP R/3 ECC 5.0 environment and am faced with a strange problem. All middleware settings seem to be correct, business partners, products, pricing and all are replicated correctly. However when I create a sales document in CRM it gets replicated to R/3 correctly but it remains locked by my RFC user, preventing me from making changes to the replicated document. The BDoc status remains 'in process' and for some reason the lock is not being removed. Does anyone have seen a similar situation and how was it solved? Thanks, Tiest.

    Tiest,
    This problem may not only be applicable for the combination of CRM 4.0 and ECC 5.0, but for other combinations of CRM and R/3 backend systems as well.
    I've bee facing the same problems with CRM 4.0 and R/3 4.70
    First check your inbound and outbound queues in both CRM and ECC (Tcode SMQ1 and SMQ2). If no queues are 'hanging', then check the status of your BDoc's.
    There are some good OSS notes that help you on these problems.
    Hope this helps you...

  • SAP CRM object model and accessibility

    Hi All,
    I am new to the SAP world.
    I am looking into SAP CRM these days to figure out whether we can write a connector in JAVA so that we
    could retrieve all the data from the SAP CRM system
    could retrieve all the properties associated with the data
    permissions associated with the data
    But I couldn't find documentation on how the object model looks like and what needs to be done in order to achieve my goals.
    For Eg: If that is SharePoint, I know the object model would be like Web Application -> Site Collection -> Site -> List -> List Items etc., and to access that we could either use OOB web services or write custom web services using SharePoint API
    Is this possible with SAP CRM?
    Can some one help me with this?
    Thanks

    Hi Daniel,

  • Attachment Handling in SAP CRM 7.0 EHP 3.0

    Hello,
    We are in the design phase of an SAP CRM 7.0 EhP3 implementation project. In the current landscape the legacy system for customer service  (CS) management uses an external shared fileserver for storing attachments from the CS system. However we plan to decommission this external content server as it does not support good security features.
    Storing attachments in SAP CRM via content management - can SAP CRM content management support large files? What is the maximum capacity per attachment and also the overall maximum capacity that SAP CRM content management can support.
    We have "heard" that SAP does not recommend storing attachments within CRM, but rather in an external secure storage server. Is this true? Is yes, what would be the best approach to store and read attachments from SAP CRM?

  • SAP CRM 7.0 Webclient - Product Identification (IBase or IObject)

    Dear SAP IC-Experts ,
    I am new in the configuration of the SAP Interaction Center (SAP CRM 7.0) and have a process orientated question.
    In my proyect the company is producing bathroom products which are installed in hotels, private homes, etc.. They sell their products via partner so they in most cases dont know where there products are installed until the end-user calls when they have a service problem. In the Interaction Center I have seen the Account and Product-identification Workcenter Page.
    1. My first question is do I have to use IBase or IObjects to save the proyects in the Database? If I understood correctly IObjects can only be used if I have a serial-number for example which are used for cars or laptops to be able to uniquely identifie a product. As Bathroom products does not have this this kind of identification number to identify a single object I have to use IBase right? Additionaly I the company sells for example 30 times a shower cabine to a hotel I can not use IObject too because there is installed 30 times the same product in different floors and hotel rooms. This leads me to the conclusion that we have to use IBase which leads my directly to the second question
    2. When using IObjects there is a Create-Button to create a new IOBject but this create button does not exists for a IBase in the View. When the end-user is calling me can I create in a very short time the installed base (IBase)? I hope I could make myself clear?
    Basically I need to know if using IBase or IObjects for bathroom products and if using IBase how can I create it quickly as an IC Agent when the client is calling?
    Best Regards
    Oliver

    Hello Oliver,
    Yes, you are correct. The IObject (individual object) is intended primarily for consumer-facing scenarios involving serialized registered products. For a B2B scenario where a company has a footprint of installed products (whether it be HVAC equipment, plumbing systems, faucets, etc.) it is probably preferrably to use the Installed Base object to model the installation.
    As you noticed, there is no native possibility to directly create new Installed Base hierachies from inside the Interaction Center directly (though there is an option for IObjects). The rationale here is that while a contact center agent would often register a new consumer product, they probably would not usually create new Installed Base hierarchies; rather this is something that, like creation of service contracts for example, is typically done by a Service Professional using the ServicePro role. However, you can always add a link to your IC menu to launch the ServicePro screen for IBase maintenance/creation in order to allow the agent to create or maintain the IBase hierarchy. A little cumbersom of course, but definitely a possible workaround.
    Warm regards,
    John

  • Automatic Profile Set / Target Group Creation in SAP CRM

    Hi,
    Need some help on the listed process.
    Is there any procedure to create Profile Ser/Target group automatically based on certain criteria? We want to reduce the manual work of Profile/Target group creation for the users.
    We are currently using SAP CRM 5.0 and looking at options of creating Target Groups automatically based on infoset. The criteria used to model is below mentioned.
    - New Customers  & Head Office (They are the customer specific Z-fields in BP Master Data)
    - Relationship Data: Has contact person Relationship. This is based on the assignment of Contact person to the BP (i.e. Day when the Relationship assignment done to the respective BP Master Data --> under Relationship tab page.
    We are not using Attribute Set (that we assign to Marketing Attribute tab page of BP Master), for your information.
    Appreciate, if you could let us know whethe this is possible by Standard feature/ any work around on this.
    Kindly do the needful.
    Thanks,

    DO you want to insatll the Java Crm for the same host with the same SID if yes you should have used the option for ABAP+JAVA installation.
    for th installation we always use sapinst for the installation Master CD.
    JSPM is the tool for applying the JAVA patched as ve have SPAM/SAINT in the ABAP side.
    When you use JSPM it can upgrade the patches to the final level.You dont to apply the patchesin sequence to reach the final level as in ABAP.
    you van find JSPM in /usr/sap/SID/DV*/j2ee/JSPM and then run ./go in unix to run JSPM.
