Target Group updation

I am new to SAP and want to know how to automatically update the target group without going to segment builder every time I assign the same attribute to new business partner.

Subash,
Actually in CRM 7.0 instead of master Groups they call it "Define Reports for Creating Segmentation Bases"
You can find this under SPRO-> CRM -> Marketing -> Segementation -> Define Reports for Creating Segmentation Bases
Read the documentation in there.

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.

Update Target Group status

Hi Experts,
I want to write e function module which will import target group guid and desired status as input & it will update status of that target group.
I'm using the FMs CRM_MKTTG_TG_ST_MAINTAIN and CRM_MKTTG_TG_SAVE.
I think I'm not able to pass proper parameters to these FMs.
Please help me with proper codes.

Hi PRasad ,
Use CRM_MKTTG_STATUS_READ. Provide the TG guid and you would get the current status. Change the status structure to add the status you want to change to and then you can call CRM_MKTTG_TG_ST_MAINTAIN and CRM_MKTTG_TG_SAVE

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

Target Group Creation

Hi Experts
How we create target group on the basis of Net value and Product. which tables required for creation of Infoset.
Our requirement is who are buy the particular product more than xxxxx amount we need to make a target group and send the mails to them. anybody having idea on this issue plz share with me
Help full answer i will give the full points
Regards
sreedhar

Hi Manohar,
You can use below methods
1. Using BI query (BI Cube) :
Create a BI query for the sales orders with value field and BP GUID and create a data source using the BI cube with BP as BP GUID.
2. Using Marketing attribute:
Create a Marketing attribute as Sales Volume (for exp) and update this marketing attribute with the total value of the sales order + exsting value in the marketing attribute which gives the total cumilative value of the sales done so far by that particular BP.
To achieve this you may have use the breakpoint in the sales order and code for the updation of markeing attribute of sold party partner function BP.
Create a data souce using the above attribute set.
We have used 2nd method for our purpose.
Please let me know if you have any further queries.
Reward points if it helps.

CRM Target Groups and Product Segments - BW and BPS settings

Hi gurus,
I have some questions regarding the CRM Target Groups and Product Segments as it relates to BW and BPS planning layouts.
1. When a target group is created in CRM, is it supposed to also be create master data entry for the object 0TGGRP_ID in BW? If it is, what kind of settings need to be made to ensure that? When we create target groups in our CRM instance, we donu2019t see the master data being updated for the 0TGGRP_ID info object.
2. Where exactly (in BW) is the relationship between the target group and the underlying customer/business partners stored/updated? We have a requirement to use target groups for defining the trade promotions and still being able to explode and plan on (individual) customers in the embedded BPS Planning layout. I believe that we need to have target group and associated customer assignments stored somewhere (?) in BW and use BPS characteristic relationships to populate all the possible combinations for a target group ID being passed from CRM. Am I correct in my assumptions? Any ideas if SAP has already delivered something similar in the BPS business content for TPM?
3. We are planning to use product segments to define the trade promotions as well. I believe BW info object is 0CP_SEGMENT. Similar to what I mentioned in Question 1, I donu2019t see any master data being updated for 0CP_SEGMENT. Am I looking at a wrong BW object or missing some key settings?
4. Where is the relationship between a Product Segment and the associated products stored/updated in BW? How do I create a trade promotion using a product segment and make the BPS planning layout populate individual products in the lead column?
Thank you for your help

Hi Anna,
After reading your post, what i understand is that there is no existing relationship present in CRM system between the Org BP and the contact person BP.
As per my Knowledge in order to create a Target group with Contact Persons you should have an active relationship persent in the CRM system bewteen the BP and the Contact person.Now as your sceanrio suggests that the Contact person's are present in the BW system but not in CRM, i would assume that the relationship also exsits in the BW . So if it does then your BW team should be able to help you in creating the necessary infocube with there analytical tools and you can then use there cube as the datasource and create the necessary Target Group with Contact persons.
Comming to the second part of your question, your guess is absolutely right but to give you more detailed infomation , the BP ID is converted in a unique GUID and this is passed into the program to retrive the necessary information from the BP after the campaign is executed.
Hope this helps!!

Naveen

Target Group to Channel - Trying to use 2 channels when only 1 is specified

I have created a Target group and then in the marketing planner create a campaign. Under the channel I have specified Phone which is linked to creating a transaction. I activate the campaign and then choose target group to channel.
The job is scheduled and does run.... However it ends in error saying "No Mail form exist for communication channel Email"
so no transactions are saved.
I am confused as I only specified the channel to be Phone NOT email..... I do not want to send any emails for this.
Has anyone encountered this problem before and can they advise on the solution.
Many Thanks
Caroline

So is question too easy that no one wants to respond? Since the new 10.7.3 update I can see the same result on the file sharing page where it shows who's logged in. Am I the only showing 2 of the same users logged in?
I was thinking because I created users and then deleted them, and the re-created the same users that's why it's occurring. When I log in from a windows machine I only see 1 user with a SMB share. But when I log in from Mac I see 2 users with the AFP share. Both users are exactly the same.
Here's one more bit regarding this. If I log in on Mac with Lion then there are 2 duplicate users and if you wait a few minutes only 1 of duplicate users will show time. The other does not. But if I log in from a Mac with Snow Leopard then it shows 2 duplicate users as above but neither of them show any time.
I can't be the only peron having these problems can I?
So if these duplicate users were caused from me creating and deleting users, where (what file) is the user name stored?
Please someone.

Target Group to be contacted again

A target group was contacted through emai. A bunch of them responded. The ones who didnot respond have to be contacted again. How to go about it?

Hello Dilboug,
If campaign execution is triggered via Campaign automation then add members responded to the campaign in a TG.And later remove this TG members from original TG used in campaign.So that the new TG will have members who did not respond to the campaign.
If campaign execution started manually then for campaign response update a marketing attribute.Later segmentation can be done on this marketing attribute with respective filter value.

How to get list of approved MSU for specified target group

Hello guys,
I have question about WSUS on windows server 2008 r2 sp1.
I need to get list of approved MSU for specified target group only for windows server 2008 r2 sp1, but I don't know whole syntax.
I can get list of approved updates for w2k8r2sp1:
$Title_r2='R2'
$Itanium='Itanium'
$wsus.GetUpdates() | Select Title | Where {
$_.Title -match $Title_r2 -and $_.Title -notmatch $Itanium -and $_.IsApproved -eq 'True'
But how can I get it for specified target group?
Please, help :)

But how can I get it for specified target group?
Is there some reason you're not just using the native console reporting to do this?
Testing for 'R2' in the title will not guarantee getting all of the applicable updates, you need to query by Product Category to get all of them.
From my quick research, it appears that GetUpdates() does not return target group information, just a flag state on whether the update has been approved, or not. I don't have a working PS WSUS instance available to me at the moment, but my guess would be
that GetUpdateApprovals() (or something like it) is what you'll need to use to filter by Target Group.

Error assigning Target Group to Campaign Element

Hi
I have created a Target group for a Campaign. I have saved and exported target group to channel and started the Campaign. But it shows error message saying No Target Groups are assigned to Campaign Element..
Why is it showing error even after assigning members for the target group and exporting the TG to Channel. I have updated the status from created to released, approved before Starting the campaign.
Please help.
Thx.

Hi Kalees
Do you have a campaign element in your campaign? If so assign the target group to the campaign element in the segments assignment block.
Cheers
Declan

Target group blank

Running WSUS 3.0 sp2 and SCCM 2012 on same windows server.
I've created a test (test windows) target group within SCCM with 4 clients in that group. When I check the clients windowsupdate.log "target group = " its blank, no "test windows" group shows up. Any thoughts ?

You don't have to approve the updates when WSUS is integrated with the ConfigMgr, instead create a deployment where the patches are downloaded in the deployment package and sent to the DP. The patches get installed as per the schedule mentioned in the
deployment. And we have more logs for updates in ConfigMgr apart from the general WindowsUpdate.log.

Target group in CRM System

Hi
We have a Target group in CRM with Status modelling completed .If we change the customer data related to this Target group in ECC system,will this Target group get updated automatically .
Regards
Vipul

Hi,
Modelling completed means you can not add or delete any Business partners in that particular Target group. It should be updating the changes made in Customer master in ECC if all your middleware settings for delta upload are correct.

Creation of Target group.

Hi All,
I having one urgent requirement, we have maintained the Ztable for maintaning the information of Vehicles against Business partners.
The Fields in the said Ztables are Vehicle type, vehicle Reg Number and BP number.
I want to send the mails using target group to customer who is having Perticular vehicle type for that i have created Infoset using the Ztable, then i have created the data source for target group still i m not getting the desired result !!!!!!
please anybody tell me that i missing any of step for above requirement ???
how to link up the BP to Ztables fields ???
How to create the said Target group ???
Regards,
Dipesh

Hi,
You can try this alternative solution:-
Instead of maintaining vehicle type etc in Z table, please crate it as "attribute", and assign it to Business Partners.
You can use CRMD_PROF_BP transaction to assign Attributes to Business partners.
Based on the attributes , you can subsequently create the "target group".

How to retrieve Business Partners Per Target group

Hi experts!!!
I am new to CRM development and i need to find the tables related to the target group.
So far i have only found some tables that hold the T.G. GUID, but i cannot understand how these are connected among them.
The requirement i have is to retrieve all the bussiness partners related to a specific target group.
So in the selection screen i should use the target group. (Which field is that??)
Please help!!!
Thank u in advance!!!

HI Grigoria,
The tables that hold the information that you have requested for is as follows:
Assuming you found the TG GUID for which you are trying to find the BP's inside it
Go to Table CRMD_IM_ML_HEAD
Paste the TG Guid value in the TARGETGRP_GUID field.This would return you "ML_GUID_H" value.
Take this Guid value and go to table "CRMD_IM_ML_ITEM"
Paste the ML_GUID_H value from the previous table in the field "ML_GUID_H" of the above table.
This will return all the BP Guids associated in that TG , which you can convert into the BP # using an FM or from the table BUT000
Hope this Help's

Naveen
