SAPConnect Inbox overview in CRM 5.0

Hi,
SOST shows outbound requests that were sent by the CRM system.
In CRM 2007 (CRM 6.0), SOST has a menu option Utilities>Inbox Overview. Selecting this option displays SAPConnect: Inbound Send Requests (SMTP). These are the inbound requests (mostly emails) that were received by SAPConnect.
I can see that the corresponding program is SAPLSBSC_IN.
I am trying to find a similar way to display Inbound emails in CRM 5.0. Unfortunately, the menu option is not available in SOST for CRM 5.0. Program SAPLSBSC_IN doesn't exist in CRM 5.0.
Any idea how can I see Inbox Overview in 5.0?

Kaushal

Worklist and Inbox functionality in CRM 5.0

Hello,
We would like to know the difference between the Worklist and Inbox functionality in SAP CRM.
Is there any change in functionalities of the two, in 4.0 and 5.0. What the different settings for these two functionalities in any system. How do we identify whether a system has implemented worklist or Inbox.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Faiz

Hi Faiz,
The best way to learn about the new functionalities is to refer to the release notes of CRM 5.0 which explaines all the new features of CRM 5.0

Outlook integration - Email inbox transfer to CRM

Hello,
We are able to view the client email inbox using the web interface, and when we select an email to click the "Transfer to CRM" link, there is no response although I can see that data is being updated in CRM via a SQL trace.
Can someone explain what is supposed to happen when we transfer the email to CRM? How can I retrieve the email from CRM? I couldn't find any useful documentation on how this functionality is supposed to be used in CRM 2007.
Any insight is appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi Sreenath.
When you are in WebUI click on Email inbox workcenter and click on Transfer to CRM. Now go to Activities and click on search activities and in category select emails and click search and you will see the email which you have transfered this is the way you find emails which came from Outlook or Lotus notes which ever you integrated. And you assign an account, Contact and can also reference to an activity such as campaign, appointment or tasks etc etc. That is the use of the email.If you want to reply to this email you can reply it only from here but not from email inbox.
I hope this will help you.

Sending email inbound to CRM

Via inbound processing (SCOT) I have specified that when an email comes in from CRMMAIL5, that the exit code I specified needs to be executed. I did the same thing in ECC. However in ECC, via trans SCOT, I can go to Utilities->inbox overview and view a log of what has happened. I can't find how to get to the inbox overview in CRM.
Anybody have a clue?
Thanks.

That's just the thing. The path doesn't exist. Neither does transaction SOIN. I've discovered note 1104489, which states this interface isn't available until support pack 14 of SAP_BASIS 70. We are on 13. The note contains corrections that can be applied, however it states:
This note contains correction instructions that you can implement using the Note Assistant. However, these corrections are only a prerequisite for future notes. They do not contain the functions of the corrections that are delivered with the Support Packages. Implement these corrections only if the Note Assistant requests you to do so when you implement another note.
You can run report RSBCSIN to see the inbound requests, but no logs or anything.

Hello,
CRM is all about leveraging and enhancing "Cusstomer-facing Activities"
To improve and equip the front office Executives capabilities to perform more activities and be instrumental in delevering adhoc information for decision making
strata of the Business society.
In CRM we carry out Marketing,Sales,Service across three different channels.
Ecommerce,Fieldapplication,Interaction center.
1)In a typical scenario it starts with Analytics.
In the portal the role Analytics manager is intrested in finding out whom he can
target to sell a particular product. He will execute a report that will list all the top revenue generating sales areas.
We do 'ABC' classification to determine who that could be.
No we get list of all the BP in a sales area who contributed to the revenue in the form of
a)Bought Many Products
b)Been very Loyal
c)Much revenue Margin.
Based on the previous campaigns Performances a ''WHAT IF'' analysis is done to simulate the campaign results.
Its something like 1)If I target 1000 customers 2)If I send them list of hundred products 3)If I have a conversion of 50% what would be the revenue generated,
based on this a BUDGET is determined.
2)In the scenario 2 Marketing Role logs in to the portal
He will assign the target group to the segments and execute the campaign across the channel e-mail. in doing so we mignt want to consider
1)Campaign Automation 2)Segmentation 4)Product Proposals
5)External list management etc.
3)In the 3 scenario User clicks on the link in the e-mail that will take him
to a web-shop. Here the user has list of all the product he would be intrested in
say for eg a Laptop and using Product proposals using UP-SELLING and CROSS-SELLING rules that we defined in the cusomizing we'll offer him a wide array of products as well as ACCESSORIES. All the products that cux selects will be in the basket and while he checks out the price for all the items selected is displayed. Once the cusstomer places an Order.
CRM is integrated with the Back end ERP R/3 for generating the Delivery.
4)In the 4 the scenario Channel partner and the customers are involved in the sales activity through COLLABORATION.
Business Partners as well as Channel Partners along with the BRAND OWNERS can log into portal for further processing.
If the customers is intrested in buying a Fax machine, Printer,ect along with the Laptop. This portal allows the customer to choose and check if all the items he has selected available with one partner or he can place orders this way.
1)Laptop from Smith INC
2)Printer from Jones INcorporated
etc, etc..
5)In the fifth scenario we have sold the product and we are providing service for the product sold. Service through ICWebclient.
Cux call up and says ''Hey I have a problem with the Laptop that I purchased?''
The agent can Identify the caller using his ID in the BPSEARCH and confirm.
In the KNOWLEDGE-BASE we have access to all similar problems and a solution to fix it. Now, the agent types the problem encountered in the search and find a solution in the SOLUTION-DATABASE, once we are through with it we assure the customer to call us back If she encounters the similar problem again.
The interation with the cux is maintained in the NOTES.
The Customer call's back again and says the problem persists.
The agent creates a SERVICE ORDER and assigns it to the EMPLOYEE-RESPONSIBLE and this SYNCHRONISED with the Laptop of the Employee of that territory and he finds the email in his inbox. Now the Employee visits the Customer and fixes the Problem, he creates a SERVICE CONFIRMATION saying the no of hours taken to fix it. IBASE determins the WARRANTY for the PRODUCT and the REFERENCE OBJECT as well. This SERVICE is BILLED and is sent to accounts for invoicing.
I do understand that this is not an Exhaustive coverage.
Please reward with points,

The problem is when I am selecting an employee from the drop-down, it does not show the correct results i.e. it does not show the records for that employee, instead it populates all the records for that Call Center.
Can someone please let me know what am I missing.

Hi Akhil,
Please go through these links:
1. An information silo is a management system incapable of reciprocal operation with other, related management systems. A bank's management system, for example, is considered a silo if it cannot exchange information with other related systems within its own organization, or with the management systems of its customers, vendors or business partners. "Information silo" is a pejorative expression that is useful for describing the absence of operational reciprocity. Derived variants are "silo thinking", "silo vision", and "silo mentality".
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_silo
2. Storage silos are structures for storing bulk materials. Silos are used in agriculture to store grain (see grain elevators) or fermented feed known as silage. Silos are more commonly used for bulk storage of grain, coal, cement, carbon black, wood chips and sawdust.
Three types of silos are in widespread use today:
1.Tower silos
2. Bunker silos
3. Bag silos

Need CRM overview for SAP BI

Hi,

BI System. I am new to CRM. Can any one explain me the overview of CRM like what are the datasoources, data targets and any relevant info.
Thanks
VSM

Hi Subbu
CRM is similar to R3 server with reference to the connectivity to BI. It uses RFC connection to connect to BI and vice-versa, this connection would usually be setup by basis consultants.
For the list of DataSources, Cubes, Queries the best resource would be SAP Help, for the CRM part below is the link.

Thanks in advance to all of you..

shanto aloor

Hello Shanto,
You need a couple of months of time to attend the following courses and couple of more years for really working in few projects to understand Well that is for people like me.
CR010 - CRM Basics,
CR100 - CRM Overview,
CR300 - CRM Sales,
CR800 - E-Commerce with CRM and
CR850 - E-Commerce with R/3
Okay, for the programming skills, you need very good Java / Web Application development experience. The application (ISA) is a simple Java based Web application (not a J2EE application) built on Struts framework. So, a good knowledge / experience of Struts is a big plus.
The [E-Commerce Enhancement / modification guide|https://websmp210.sap-ag.de/sapdownload/011000358700000469462006E/] is THE reference for ISA enhancements. I can not emphasize more on this. Every page, sentence is a must read in this document. This next document has [Examples and Tutorials |http://service.sap.com/sapdownload/011000358700006120622006E/]that go with the first document.
It is also good to have ABAP development and debugging knowledge to do good development. Basic understanding of the request - response cycle - the Java to ABAP integration are all good topics to focus and learn.
You must also know the Java development process in the NetWeaver (NW). You need to know the concepts of NW Development Infrastructure (NWDI). The enhancement guide has some information relevant to ISA development.
If you really go through the enhancement guide thoroughly, you will know what more you should know!

Alert in crm when the order is changed in ecc

HI All,
When an ECC order is changed/cancelled then an alert should be generated in the alert inbox of the crm user. Please suggest if such a scenario is possible. We dont have XI in place.
In such scenarios can we have the alert category defined in the ECC system and the alert triggered from CRM system by pointing the rfc connection in SALRT1 to crm system.
Please suggest.

Hey
Please open this question in ECC forum since this is not part of XI.
To answer your question,you should be able to achieve this by configuring CCMS on ECC or on Solution manager.
Thanks

CRM - BSP applications - Getting started

Hi Experts ,
I have a knowledge of BSPs used in R/3.
and for my project requirement now i am asked to study CRM BSPs.
And i am not aware of the CRM BSP applications at all.
what is the difference between BSPs and CRM BSPs ??
Can anybody give me a Document containing overview of CRM BSP applications?
Also for this do i need the knowledge of CRM functional areas?
Regards,
Ashish Shah

Hi Ashish,
CRM BSPs and R/3 BSP are similar. They are similar, if you are designing custom BSPs.
In CRM we have SAP standard BSP applications which were develped on MVC architecture. They are 1) CRM_IC ( CRM Interaction Center) 2) CRM PCUI
These are standard SAP developed BSP application which are ready to work.
Each customer using CRM system, may need some customization in these Applications.
So in CRM we will work on These standard BSP applications as well on Custom build applications, depending on customer needs.
Thanks,
Babu
