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....

  • 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.

  • Double stack BI and Enterprise portal for SSO

    I am in the process of configuring a double stack BI and SAP Enterprise Portal. Both systems are residing on different domains. We want to utilize the standalone SAP Enterprise Portal for our BEx etc. For that I have exchanged certificates between the ABAP and the SAP Enterprise Portal systems and with the help of Support desk tool I have overcome the certificate issues. The RFC connection from ABAP and SAP Enterprise Portal works fine. The Support desk tool is complaining now about the prefix of these two servers. Also when I check the connection testing between these two systems all the messages are correct except for WEBAS connection it complains about the ping service which is already active on ABAP side. For Connectors it complains about SSO which is not detected/complained by the Support desk tool (0.426). I need your advice:
    1. Either uninstall the JAVA instance of BI or
    2. Make a Federated Portal network by making the BI JAVA as PRODUCER and the SAP standalone as CONSUMER.
    The Support package levels are the same as EHP1 SP 7 of both the double stack BI and the standalone Enterprise Portal systems. The source of users are both local to the systems.

    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.

    Hi,
    take a look at this note which describes how to setup BEx Web in SAP NetWeaver 2004s. All required steps are mentioned. Additionally, this note contains a checklist to check the installation and configuration.
    SAP NetWeaver 2004s: Setting Up BEx Web
    SAP Note Number: [917950 |https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes/sdn_oss_bw_sys/~form/handler%7b5f4150503d3030323030363832353030303030303031393732265f4556454e543d444953504c4159265f4e4e554d3d393137393530%7d]
    In SAP NetWeaver 2004s, load is moved from AS-ABAP (BI-ABAP) to AS-Java (BI-Java). BI generates load on Portal (AS-Java), therefore BI users generate more load on Portal than normal Enterprise Portal users. See note 927530 for additional information about BI-Java sizing.
    Which functionalities of BEx Web in SAP NetWeaver 2004s are requiring a Portal?
    - New BEx Web Application Designer (Unicode, Command Wizard, ...)
    - Exporting to PDF and Printing
    - Integrated Planning
    - Drag&Drop (Analysis Web Item)
    - Web Items (Container Layout, Menu Bar, Tab Pages, Button Group, ...)
    - Formatted Reporting with BEx Report Designer
    - Document Integration with storage in Knowledge Management
    For details, see Release Notes for Usage Type BI-Java under http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/index.htm
    If you don't want to use the new BEx Web functionality, you can still use BEx Web 3.5 Runtime that is running only with Usage Type AS-ABAP.

    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.

  • Solution Manager and Enterprise Portal 7

    Hi,
    I installed an Enterprise Portal and have connected it to our SLD. So far, so good.
    When the system landscape fetch reads the data from our sld the new installed portal appears in SMSY under System Components and not under Systems as the rest of our Systems. So it is not possible for me to assign it to a logical component. Is this normal? Where is my problem?
    Thanks ahead,

    Do you have a documentation how I can download it using the solution manager maintenance optimizer? Any transaction code or something else.

  • 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...

  • ABAP WD: Different display in Test window and enterprise portal

    Hi,
    I am using Table and TreeByNestingtable column in ABAP webdynpro(Basis 710 release). When I run the application using test, table captions are not in bold and there is no difference between TreeByNestingtable column and other columns in background color.
    But when I display the same component in Enterprise portal using iview(EP 6), the table captions appear in bold and TreeByNestingtable column and other columns appear in different background color.
    Has anybody encountered this issue? And how do we resolve it?
    Regards,
    Srini.

    Please see OSS Note 903662 on restrictions and steps for running ABAP Web Dynpro in older releases of the portal.  In particular you should disable the portal style sheet.

  • 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
