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

Creating New Target Groups in Background - is this possible?

We are currently working on CRM 4.0.
We have created some custom infosets for criteria that we wish to segment our data by. However when we try and run this using the segment builder a time-out short dump occurs.
Does anyone know of a way to create the target groups through the segment builder via a background process that means we could avoid the time out issue?.
Many Thanks
Caroline

Hi Caroline,
I am sorry. I wrongly wrote it as Segment builder. But, as you correctly said,.... we can send target group to channel in marketing planner only.... not segment builder.
But, as you are saying that you have a problem in the segment builder when creating the target group........I guess when you right click on the profile set to build the target group, we also have an option,.... something like....."Build target group in background".
I am not sure, as i am not infront of the system. But, please check for this ......
Reward points if it helps....
Thanks.

How to create a target group with all prospects?

Hi guys,
I am wondering how do I have to set up my data source when I would like to build a target group in my segment builder which includes all persons/contacts/organizations with the bp role prospect?
Which infoset do I need to choose in my data source? What do I need to fill under details?
Thanks a lot for your help.
Best regards,
Janine

Hi Janine,
What I could understand is that you require to create target group of all BPs having BP role as prospects.
To do so, you can create an infoset joning tables BUT000 and BUT100. The table BUT100 , has a field "BP Role"->select it, so that it is available when you are creating the attribute list using this infoset.
Create a data soucre for this infoset. Then when creating a attribute list, include this datasource and under this select the attribute "BP Role". Add filter to this attribute for prospects.
This filter can be used in segmentation builder in UI to create TG containing BPs having BP role as prospect.
Hopes this helps you.
Thanks,

API for creating item catalog group

Hello,
Does anyone know which API's are used for creating the following Inventory objects:
1. catalog group
2. descriptive element
3. descriptive element value
4. manufacturer part number for master item
Thanks
Simon

If there are no APIs listed at http://irep.oracle.com, then there are none publicly available. There may be internal/private ones - you will have to peruse thru all of the API code in the database to see if there are any - if you find any and plan to use them, Oracle will typically not help in troubleshotting issues you may run into. You could also open an SR asking if there are any APIs available for use.

Determination Criteria for Questionnaires with Target Group howto transport

Hi Experts,
if I do the Determination Customizing for my Surveys in the Development System I don´t have the Target Groups I am having in Quality or Productive System. As the Determination is Customizing in SPRO, I wouldnt want to change the Target Groups in P System.
How do you handle/ transport this? Do I have to have the same Target Groups in all Systems (with same name)?
Thanks,
Cem

Hi Lorena,
The criteria that you have in Criteria Set might not be matching what you enter without the criteria set. You might want to recheck that. And as far as I remember, you can't setup questionnaire determination for campaigns.

How & Where to create the Target Groups and Transport Targets for Business

Hi Experts,
I am Transporting the scenarios from Development 500 client XI system to Development 500 client PI7.1 system. I have taken the exports of Technical system and Business System from the DEV XI system and correspondingly have imported the same in the PI7.1 system. I can see the all the business system in the Business system SLD of the PI7.1 system. I would like to assign the Business System Groups and Transport Targets for every business system that I want to transport. How can I do that ? Whether this is to be done in DEV XI system or the DEV PI system? Can somebody elaborate the step by step method to create the Groups and Target system for the every Business system so that I can import the object of the Integration Directory sucessfully................................
Thanks & Regards

Edited by: sukande on Aug 17, 2010 8:18 AM

Hi Supriya,
Thanks for the reply and good illustration............Still going further after defing the destination for transport in the source SLD Business system ( XI dev server) , then we should export it and subsequently import it in the SLD of the PI 7.1 ie the destination server. Then we should transport the objects of Integration Repository and Integration Directory to the new PI7.1 server. Is this the right way to proceed.? Hope that this will not give the error while importing the objects in Integration Directory. An typical which comes while importing the objects in the Integration Directory is as follows:-
*Import failed because of business system transfer of object Communication Component | PCM: Obligatory transport target for business system PCM not found in System Landscape Directory*
Pls clarify on this ......
Thanks & Regards

Creating Target group

HI all,
I am trying to create the target group in Segment builder, for which I have done the following settings
1)I have maintained Attributes and attribute set,
2)i have assigned attribute set to Business partner.
3)I also have created Data source here i have maintained
Origin type as attribute set
maintained name of attribute set
function module used Cross-selling: function module CRM_MKTPR_PP_CS_TG_READ,and description.
4)Created attribute list as follows
Description_______
Category:Product proposal
Segment type:Product Proposal and saved.
Then assigned data source and highleted what ever attributes required to display in Segment builder.
The issue here is:
When i go to Segment builder(crmd_mktseg):
in Segment builder when i tried to create profile set for product proposal the system is asking for Profile set description and Master group.
and i am unable to drag and drop profile set onto staging area and create target group.
can u/any one advice me in this regard/
Thanks in advance.
mdv.

Hi mdv,
For the purpose of creating your target group, the name of the profile set is of no importance. CRM just requires that you do create the target group within a profile set. That being said, when you create a profile set and system asks you for profile set description and master group, just put any words in the description field that is meaningful to you, and don't select anything in the master group.
Once this is done, you will need to drag and drop your 'filter' that you created for your attribute list into the staging area. Then, one very important step (which I missed in the beginning and it took me 8 hours to figure out) is that you need to click on the 'Count' button. Once you see a number on the target group, it means the filter is working. From there you can create your target group and open it for list export.
Hope this helps.

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

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.
