Target group changing

Hello All,
I've created TG "My TG" and attached it to a campaign "My campaign". I released campaign and transffered a group to a channel(call list in my case)
After that I want to add additional BP to "My TG" and attach this group to the same campaign.
According to help.sap.com I should delete the target group from campaign , change it and attach it again.
But when I tryed to delete TG from campaign I got error message "Segment already transfered to a channel".
Some suggestion?
Is there some another way to add additional BP's to existing target group and attached it to the same campaign?
Thank you very much

Transport Layer in ABAP Workbench
The Change and Transport System supports the distribution of development work on large projects across multiple SAP Systems.
The packages in each development system are grouped into one transport layer.
The transport layer determines whether objects are assigned to a local or transportable change request.
Use
Each of your SAP development systems is assigned a transport layer as its standard transport layer. If you use Extended Transport Control, you can assign different standard transport layers to certain clients.
You can define at the most one consolidation target for each SAP System and transport layer.
When you create a package, it is assigned the standard transport layer of the SAP System.
If you want to assign a different transport layer to a package, you require the administration authorization for the Change and Transport System.
The objects in a package automatically have the transport attributes defined for the corresponding transport layer.
If a consolidation route originating in their SAP System is defined, then the objects are assigned to a transportable request, and transported into the consolidation target when it is released.
If a consolidation route is not defined, the objects are assigned to a local request, and are not transported.
Customizing settings are not assigned to a package. They have the transport attributes of the standard transport layer of the system or client.
It is best to assign a package a standard transport layer for which a consolidation route originating in the development system is defined.
To display and maintain the transport layers and routes, use the Transport Management System (transaction STMS).
Only the system adminstrator can make changes.

Need to change the targeting group of a Rule or monitor after a alert is created.

Hi All,
I have created many alerts and they are working fine. Currently due to business requirement we have installed Windows server 2012 operating systems in our production environment. But we have targeted the
"Windows server 2008 r2 full operation system" group as per the below screen shot. As we now have to import the management pack for Windows server 2012 as well.
What we have planned is to change the targeting group from "Windows server 2008 r2 full operation system"
to "Windows server operating system group" so the alert / monitor or rule will target all windows server which has been discovered in SCOM rather that only the servers running Windows server 2008 r2.
I was also not able to set overrides for this as that server was not coming under Windows server 2008 r2 full operation system as it was a Windows server 2012 agent.
I can also go ahead and create new alerts but i have created custom of 1000 alerts and i cannot go ahead and re create them.
Is there any way to change them. If yes Can i do a bulk change via powershell ?
Below is the screenshot of what i really want. Can any on e please help.

You can't really change the target class of a monitor in a sealed vendor pack. If this is your own custom pack, then you can change the target class no problem, but this would need to be done on the unsealed XML (using VSAE or some other authoring tool).
Then you can seal the pack and re-import (should be upgrade compatible, since you are just changing the target).
I'm not familiar with this particular monitor in your screenshot, but it looks like this should probably target Exchange? If this is the case, then I would recommend targeting the closest typed class that the monitor should run against. In this case, some
type of Exchange class that is already in the Exchange management pack.
Otherwise, you can also create your own custom class for targeting, which I describe in detail on my blog.
Here are all my sample VSAE fragments.
Here is an example of
using the Application Component base for your new class.
Here is an example of
using Local Application base for your new class.

Change Management and Target Group in STMS

Hello, We use the Change Management (SolMan 4.0). Up to now it works fine. We deliver always one client in the System (E33.002; T33.002 and P33.002). Now we try to change this. We will deliver more than one client in every system at the same time (to have always the same status in every client). So we use Target groups in STMS. This works fine if I do the transports manualy. But if I try to do it with the change management it doesn't work. The change management still deliver one client (002).
Can someone give me a hint?

How to change the max number of member display in Target Group

Dear Experts,
We are using 2007 CRM Marketing.
When I search and open a Target Group it displays me maximum of 100 entries of members over 11 pages. how do I increase or decrease the max number.
Appricate you help.
Thanks,
Shabbir Hussain

Hi,
you can set the number of members that will be displayed in target group.
Go to any profile group -> open the graphical modelling -> open settings.
Here you can ajust the displayed number of members in a targetgroup.
These settings are user-dependent and saved in table CRMD_MKTTG_PERS.

Changing archived status for target group or segmentation model.

Hello, CRMies!
In SAP CRm WEBUI i set "To archive" flag for segmentation model and now it has status "Archived". The problem is hat it became inactive now and i can't reset this status. I didn't execute any archiving reports, just set the flag on. I was looking for any FM or reports to recover the status.
Anybody knows how to unarchive segmentation model or TG?

Hi Katya,
as far I know the segmentation model is archived with the next scheduled archive run once the status 'to be archived' is set. The status can be undone before the archive run, once this is archived there is no way other then generating the segment again.
Please refer to the online help about further information:
Archiving Segmentation Elements - SAP Library
For target groups andproduct segments there is also a read program in transaction SARA, which you can use to display the archived segmentation elements again at a later point in time, if required.
Furthermore, the information structure SAP_CRM_MKTTG_I is available for target groups and product segments in the transaction SARA.
You can not only read, but can also load archived segmentation models into the system. However, you should only use this function when it is absolutely necessary. For further information, see Reloading Archive.
Since you cannot load target groups or product segments into the system, you need to generate these again to be able to use them.
I hope this helps.

Johannes

Creating a target group based on the BP email address only in CRM

Hi there,
I am currently trying to create a target group based on the business partner email address only.
I have a list of over 1000 email addresses - these email addresses equate to a BP in our CRM system, however I do not have a list of the equivalent business partner numbers, all I have to work on are the email addresses. With these 1000 BP email addresses I need to update the marketing attributes of each of these 1000 BP records in CRM.
What I need is a method to find the 1000 BP numbers based on the email addresses and then use the marketing expert tool (tx. CRMD_MKT_TOOLS) to change the marketing attributes on all of the 1000 BPs.
The issue I am having is how can I find the list of BP numbers just based on the BP email address, I tried creating an infoset based on table BUT000, BUT020 and ADR6 but I after creating attribute list & data source for this I am stuck on what to do next. In the attribute list the selection criteria does not allow me to import a file for the selection range. I can only enter a value but I have 1000 email addresses and cannot possibly email them manually in the filter for the attribute list.   I also looked at imported a file into the target group but I do not have any BP numbers so this will not work.
Does anyone know a method where I can create a target group based on the email addresses only without having to do any code?
Any help would be most appreciated.
Kind regard
JoJo

Member of Target Group: Contact record updated

We are creating a target group for a Campaign and several of the contacts had to be updated (changed Companies "Account" for instance) and the new data for that contact is not reflected on Members list, shows old data (old Company "Account").
Without removing the member and re-adding, are we missing something or once they are added it holds the old data?
We can find this down the road to be cumbersome when copying target groups and/or when using the same target group for other campaigns
if a contact record is updated and the information is not matching to the member data.
Any insight appreciated!

Hi Gina,
once the members are added to a group and after if you do any changes on the master data these changes wont reflect in the group already created, you should remove and save the group after again add back this time the new changed data will be updated.
hope this clarify your issue.

Suresh

Regeneration of Target Group

Hi crmguys,
We have the following case about the Target Group in CRM Marketing:
Already Generate a Target Group in Segment Builder on x date
A Campaign has been created and the Target Group has been assigned to this Campaign
After that some changes has been done at the time of releasing the campaign,
shall i have to regenerate the target group or not to get the exact target group accroding to attribute list
thanks in advance
Raj

hi
you said you already maintained the target group ,so when you release the campign its pretty simple,if you have maintained the target group using the same set of attributes which are there in your attribute list,then you need not create the target group again
but if thats not the case then you need to regenerate the target group on the basis of attribute list,infosets or BW query,using whatever you want to do the segmentation.
target group once assigned to the campaigns can be used again and again but on the basis of which target group are assigned is very crucial.this must be remembered every time we do segmentation.
besides you can maintain a background job for scheduling the target group assignment to the BP too,so that once target group is generated it is assigned automatically for segmentation.

In ECC 6.0, can I link a CTS project id to a transport target group?

In ECC 6.0, can I link a CTS project id to a specific transport target group?
I configured two IMG projects, namely, Phase1 and Phase2. In SPRO, I tied them to CTS project ids, DEV_P00001 and DEV_P00002, respectively. In STMS, I configured two transport target groups called /PHASE1/ and /PHASE2/ that I want to link with the corresponding project ids. The intention is that Phase1 transports will go to the clients specified in the /PHASE1/ target group and that Phase2 transports will go to the clients specified in the /PHASE2/ target group
I want to link the CTS project ids to the respective transport target groups so that (e.g.) if a team member creates a transport in SE01/SE09/SE10 and chooses the DEV_P00001 project id from the Project dropdown, then /PHASE1/ will appear as the default transport target. Likewise, if the team member instead chooses the CTS project id DEV_P00002, then /PHASE2/ will appear as the default transport target.
Right now, the user has to remember to choose the correct combination of CTS project id/transport target group.
Solution Manager is NOT involved in this scenario.
Does anyone know of a way to do this in ECC 6.0?

Hi,
Try this it worked for me though,
1. Goto SPRO_ADMIN
2. Select the Project
3. Choose Change
4. Go To Transport Requests TAB
5. Activate CTS Functionality
6. Save it after the Pop Up
7. Go to Se10 and check if the Project Field is getting Populated with the Desired Project or not.

Nitin

Creating Target Group from External File

Hello Experts
We need to create target group from external file. (That is to say we will have let's say txt file containing BP that belongs to specific target group and we need to assign these BPs to to specific target group in SAP CRM)
I have searched for it on sdn and found something benefical. I have found BAPI_TARGETGROUP_CREATE, I have checked it but I don't understand how should we use it becuase as far as we understand it just creates target group, we cannot see anything related with Business Partner. How can we relate BPs with the target group we create by this BAPI.
What should we do, is anyone have previous experience about it? or is there a way to do it without using BAPI.
thanks it advance
M.
Edited by: Mehmet Ergul on Jan 22, 2009 11:19 AM

Hi,
You can do this from within the standard Web UI. It's straight out of the box.
Create a profile set and in there create a target group in the target group assignment block just by entering the description of the target group. Then enter edit mode of this target group and click the button "Import Members". Remeber to mark "Change selected target group" unless you want to create a new target group.

Working with target groups in ChaRM?

Has really nobody worked with transport groups in ChaRM??

Hello Elena,
I agree with Prakhar - admin/operator who performs the actual import into production must be VERY careful:
in case when you have several target systems in the transport route, when you release transport from source system, the transport is exported into the buffer of EVERY target system that is defined in the route - no matter how you group your target systems.
In the Task List however each producton system will have it's own CTS project generated.
So your operator must be very well aware of which production system is accotiated with which CTS-project so to execure Import from SCMA correctly, and also be aware of what transports are in the buffer of that system at that time - there will be no pick-n-choose once Import is run.
The import into production will NOT be made via SCMA or the change request itself, but directly in STMS via the QA buffer.
We will generate an email with the target systems and transport request numbers out of the change request and send it to the basis team. They are not going to work in the Solution Manager.
So, actually we need that the target group to be written directly in the transport request itself.
Do you think this is possible?
But I don't agree that it is a good idea to create multiple maintenance projects (i.e. separate for each production system) - if all your PRD* systems are fed from the same DEV... In this case it must be just one maintenance project with multiple target systems, I think.
It is ok if the transports are written to all production buffers.

Transport Layers and Target Groups

Hello,
Can one transport layer be assigned to two different target groups? We have some number range changes that are automatically trying to go to our FIX_QAX target group since it is config, however, the transport cannot be generated because the config is part of package KEG0 which is set up currently as part of the SAP layer which only handles the FIX_IND target group. I was thinking of making the SAP layer go to both target groups FIX_QAX & FIX_IND. Is there any danger of this?
Thank you for your time,
Erin Byrne

i think we can't assing a transport layer to 2 different target groups. and, even connection b/n 2 target groups is not possible. i am not sure, if we can use the same transport layer (SAP) twice.
the alternative way is.. manually (copy the data file and cofile in the other tranport domain) import the request.
hope this info helps.
regards,
Rajesh.

Using custom fields to create Target Groups?

Hi Experts,
I might be missing something but I couldn't find anything in the different help guides, so if anyone saw that please help!
Do you know if it is possible to edit the available fields to search/filter Contacts, Accounts etc. when trying to add them to a Target Group?
We are currently not really using any Marketing-related features but this will be a focus for us in a few months so we are having a closer look at this area. There might be some other settings in the Admin/Project Scope etc. that I am missing and need to check and activate.
We have some custom fields integrated with our on premise SAP CRM system which are heavily used by our marketing departments for extracting Contact lists, this is why we would like to see how we could reproduce this in C4C.
Thanks a lot in advance,
JB.

Hi JB,
You can go to => Marketing => Target Groups => Your Group => Members => Personalize => Start Personalization => Add => Add Contacts => here you can select the field you want to change/hide, you can also drag and drop a field to change its order on the screen => Personalize => End Personalization.
Please find attached file with only a few changes that I did on that screen.

Folder Redirection policy is not applied to a user, when the server target is changed, but works after resetting the windows profile.

Folder Redirection policy is not applied to a user, when the server target is changed.
After server target is changed via group policy, when user login (roaming profile)first time, the the new server target has not been applied, instead it's pointing to the old folder redirection path.
But if we reset the windows profile (roaming ), the new folder redirection works, can you please specify a solutions that the new folder redirection works when the user login for the first time. so it reduce the time on resetting users profile.
it seems that we need to delete the old folder redirection path from the user profile (roaming user profile) via group policy or similar solutions..
Many Thanks

> But when the specific users login they all get the same error, it
Is the old server removed from the domain? Seems so - or some other
authentication related issue, hard to tell from here...
> seems that the roaming user profiles still keeps the old server details,
Yes - if you change redirection targets, FR moves content from old to
new, and only if this ends sucessfully, it will update the redirection
target.
Make the old redirection target accessible to the user and you'll be fine.
