Suggest Knowledge Articles

Hi Experts,
Am new to CRM Service profile.
Am working on CRM 7.0 EHP2 and am facing the problem in Suggest Knowledge Articles in Service Request.
To make enable the Multilevel Categorization i had maintained the following entries in the following path.
CRM IMG->CRM->CRM Cross-Application Components->Multilevel Categorization->Assign Transaction Types to Catalog Categories.
I had configured the Knowledge Articles and Service Request and i maintain same Multi Categorization for both transactions as shown in the below image.
I had maintain the entry in the customized table in the following path as given below.
CRM IMG->CRM->Transactions->Basic Settings->Setting for Service Request->Define System Proposals for Related Transactions
For both Knowledge Article ans Service Request Subject Profile can be able to maintain.
So i maintained the same values for the Service Request and Knowledge Article.
My Requirement is when ever i click the button suggest Knowledge Articles in the Related Knowledge Articles AB system should propose the Knowledge Article but after all the changes mentioned above am getting the result as There is no suggested knowledge article available.
Please suggest is any thing more need to configure or is any thing wrong in my settings.
I already searched on the issues in the SDN but problem not yet solved.
Any Suggestions will be helpful.

Hi Ravi,
In the service request can you please remove the check find related object and then check, the system will then not determine the knowledge article, hence the check for find related object in the service request is required and mandatory, you can also remove the check in your second screen shot for knowledge article and check
Answers to your query.
Knowledge article definition in sap is given below
You can use this function to obtain information, such as how-to documents, user manuals, or FAQ, to process, for example, incidents, problems, and requests for change that your customers may report.
To interpret the above, if there was a problem reported earlier by a customer which you have captured through your categorization in your service request, once the problem was resolved a knowledge article was created and assigned to the categorization
Hence again if the same customer or another customer calls and reports the same problem which is captured through categorization fields, the system will then determine the knowledge article if the person creating the service request goes to the knowledge management assignment block, the system determines the knowledge article, by opening this article the person can then inform the customer of the possible remedial measures or the solution to the problem which was reported(the solution would be captured in the knowledge article)
Is there any Standard Functionality available like Auto Complete the KA in the Service Request with out clicking on the Suggest Knowledge Article button.
No: You need too go to the knowledge article assignment block and click on suggest knowledge article, you can read the help document given below on knowledge article
Hope this helps.

    Hi Shahul,
    Can you please check the following
    Ensure that you assign your knowledge article in the application areas of the schema (screen shot attached)
    If the system needs to auto suggest knowledge article click on the specific categorization assignment block as shown below
    You can then scroll below and assign the specific knowledge article(screen shot attached below) to the categorization.
    If you catalog category for the schema configurations are with category type C, then the know article assignment block would be below(check next screen shot) however if the same is D then the knowledge article assignment block would be above when you click on more in your service requests incidents problems.
    As explained above(attached screen shots)
    However ensure that you select the correct categorization entry and then navigate to the knowledge article assignment block and click on auto suggest(as explained above)
    Also ensure that in one your above screen shots the catalog category for knowledge article transaction type should be causes as highlighted below and the same should be unchecked.

  • Unable to load Knowledge Article automaticaly

    Hello,
    We need to load several thousand Knowledge Articles in the system for the beginning of the project.
    It is impossible to use LSMW in a WebUI transaction so I tried to use LSMW with the old transaction u201CCMRD_ORDERu201D but there where major difficulties. KA created with this transaction cannot be seen in the WEBUI search (even manually).
    I tried to create a specific program to load a Knowledge Article in SAP GUI using CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN.
    The created KA appears in CRM_ORDER_READ and in the transaction CRMD_ORDER.
    However, the same knowledge article ID when searched in WebUI is not seen.
    I have even tried to do SAF Compilation to see if it helps but the KA is still not visible in WebUI which is the main concern.
    Kindly Suggest.
    Stéphane

    Hi Stephanie,
    Thats a very valid and geniune question. We also had to upload Knowledge Articles in the CRM system when our client migrated from PeopleSoft CRM system to SAP CRM.
    Its known that Knowledge Article comes one One Order Frame Work and we can still use CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN and CRM_ORDER_SAVE FMs to load the KAs into the system.
    However, we need to do some additional steps in order to make it appear in the UI search.
    First of all you need to make sure that SAP is configured and the Knowledge Article Indexing Job is set up. Indexing is a very important part which is required for the Knowledge Articles to work properly in UI.
    To Set Up, go to SPRO->CRM->Enterprise Intelligence-.>Software Agent Framework
    Second thing, while writing the data conversion program, be sure to include the following logic in your program to make the Knowledge Article appear in the UI search:
                CALL METHOD cl_crm_knowledge_article_util=>ka_change_kb_notif
                  EXPORTING
                    ir_entity         = lv_result_final
                    iv_compile_action = 'U'.
    This is the addtional piece of code which the system calls while specifically saving Knowledge Article in standard functionality so that it works fine in UI search.
    Hope it helps.
    Thanks

  • Knowledge articles full compilation failed

    Hi,
    We have CRM 7.0 Interaction center.

  • Interaction record number is populating in"Related Knowledge Article" field

    Hi,
    I'm creating a Problem in IC....Once I click on save in problem management a interaction record will be created which was expected but the Interaction record number is Populating automatically in the "Related Knowledge Article & Related request for change" fields in the Problem management....No clue of where I need to change the things....Please advise...
    KK.

    KK,
    It looks like the issue is with your document flow. Most likely the standard handler class CL_CRM_DOCFLOW_RUN_BTIL was replaced with some custom class. This is where SAP cleans up those follow up transactions (eg: IRs) which do not match the correct type requested (eg: Problem, KA). Check your config in:
    Customer Relationship Management -> CRM Cross-Application Components -> Generic Interaction Layer/Object Layer -> Component-Specific Settings -> Business Transactions -> Define Custom Handler Classes for Business Transaction Model Nodes
    If the class for object BTDocFlow has been replaced, look into the new class, specifically method GET_MULTI_ID. (Note that you have to append RUNBTIL to the structure name in this table to get the actual class). This method is where SAP does the cleanup work. If this method does not have all the logic that is available in the SAP standard class, then that is why your IRs are not getting filtered out when SAP is trying to find related Problems or Knowledge Articles.
    Hope that helped. If not, let us know so that we can suggest another direction.

    Hi Tejas Chouhan,
    In CRM Technically, Knowledge article is designed based on one order framework with business object category as BUS2000106  - CRM Knowledge Article.CRMD_ORDERADM_H table will give header details of KA (OBJECT_ID field would equal KA number).

  • Convert Problems/Solutions into Knowledge Articles

    Hi Experts,
    I am wroking on SAP CRM 7.0 SP06 and now we are planning to implement Knowledge Article functionality.
    I have done the all configuration settings and multilevel categorization, every thing working fine. Now I want to convert problems/solutions which already created in CRM and stored in SDB into knowledge article.
    Any one please guide me how can I convert existing problems/solutions into knowledge articles. Is there any report for this?
    Thanking you in anticipation.
    Regards,
    Babu.

    Hi Kevin,
    Well, I'm new on this and have only worked on CRM 6 & 7. I'll give you my advice regarding these CRM versions. I don't know if it is supported on CRM 5.
    IMG:
    CRM >> Enterprise Intelligence >> SAF >> Name and Configure KB
    You create and define you DB as you want: ACME INC
    CRM >> Enterprise Intelligence >> SAF >> Business Add-Ins >> BAdI: Knowledge Base
    Each knowledge base should have its own Add-In implementation. So you have to implement an Add-In based on Add-In definition CRM_SAF_KB_*: CRM_SAF_KB_ACME. You can follow IMG documentation.
    In my case, the add-in already existed, since Knowledge Article functionality is standard in 7.0. KB didn't exist, I don't know why. I just created it with the name assigned on the BAdI, compiled, and everything works fine now.
    Hope it helps.
    Regards.

  • How to create knowledge articles in CRM?

    Dear All,
    With the new 7.0 version being completely new to us, we have struggling with creating knowledge articles in the system. How to create a new knowledge article in the system?
    Thanks in advance!
    Leon

    Hi Leon,
    You have to made the following settings for knowledge articles in Customizing for Customer Relationship Management:
         Specified which groups appear in the authorization scope under: Master Data -> Knowledge Articles 
         Defined surveys and their determination under: Master Data -> Knowledge Articles -> Questionnaires 
          The settings you make for surveys in Customizing determine the surveys that appear in the Questionnaires assignment block for knowledge articles.
         Configured the Software Agent Framework (SAF) under Enterprise Intelligence
          These settings are required to make a connection to the TREX server, which allows for faster searches.
         Specified the categories to which the knowledge article can be assigned under: CRM Cross-Application Components -> Multilevel Categorization 
    Please find more details in the below link:

    Hello Milan,
    You can do the Knowledge Article Search based upon Posting date without having the TREX configured on your client.

  • How to view Knowledge Article Assignment Block in Service Confirmation

    Hi dudes,
    CRM 7.0 introduces Knowledge Articles, which can be used in Service Orders, Repairs, etc, they have an assignment block for this purpose. Unfortunately, it is not available for Service Confirmations.
    I'm not sure if it is possible to reuse the asignment block in this case. I found an interesting WIKI entry which tells how to display a z table in an assignment block. There is also information about how to assing a view to a component on building blocks config guide C04.
    So I decided to follow those indications, and try to reuse it.  It looked (apparently) easy (at least with my poor knowledge, since I'm new on this).
    From the service order (BT116H_SRVO), I wrote down the technical data of the KA assignment block:
          COMPONENT: GSDOCFLOW
          VIEW: HdrDocFlowEF
    I want to add it to the service confirmation (BT117H_SRVC). So I went to the Runtime Repository Editor:
    - Added View in ViewSet BT117H_SRVC/OVViewSet with component: GSDOCFLOW and View: HdrDocFlowEF.
    - Saved.
    I went back to the Component Structure Browser, View BT117H_SRVC/OVViewSet, Configuration tab, but the new assignment block is not available!!!
    The C04 guide creates a component usage before adding the view, which I don´t know if it is needed in this case. Checking BT116H_SRVO, there is a component usage for KA!!! but I tried to replicate it and I got to the same point.
    Maybe it is not as simple as I thought. I would really appreciate any advice on this issue
    At least, please let me know if it is feasible.
    thanks a lot!

  • Search knowledge article remain nothing

    hi,
    i'm new to CRM.
    i try to search for knowledge article in CRM interactive Center Web Client.
    the articles can be found in CRM database CRMD_ORDERADM_H,
    but when i seach from IC Web Client, it returns nothing.
    do i miss out anything?
    do i need to replicate from CRM? can anyone guide me?
    thanks.
    Shanti

    Hello Shanti,
    Perhaps you provide a more detailed description of which screen you are searching from. Are you searching from the "Knowledge Article" screen (new in CRM 7.0) or from the old "Knowledge Management" screen? The latter can only be used to search the Solution Database, Case Management, and other configured knowledge repositories -- but is not integrated by default with the Knowledge Article. So you need to use the dedicated Knowledge Article search screen from the NavBar.
    Also, I am puzzled by your question about "replicating from CRM". What exactly are you referring to?
    Thanks,
    John
