Update marketing attributes and send mBDoc BUPA_MAIN

Hi,
When I update marketing attributes in CRM there are three mBDocs sent into queues (MKTPROF_MSG and CHARVAL_MSG) and also BUPA_MAIN .
I'd like to know if sending BUPA_MAIN is an standard SAP solution or not.
If it's not where can I find how it's work (configuration, sap note)
Thank's in advance
Robert

Hi Robert,
As of the relationship beteween the three bdoc, it has been coded as of SAP is concerned. As any change in Marketing attribute has to be reflected in BP so that no inconsistency occurs.
You can obviously stop generation of one of the mbdocs, but the generation will not be conditionally stoped, but it will be stop permanently.

Update marketing attribute and customer master data via Survey Response

Hi,
I am creating a marketing survey. I have come to a point where I am able to get the reponses posted by the business partners.
Now I would like to update the BP's directly when they respond. The challenge here is I want to update both Marketing attribute and Customer master.
Is this possible with standard function modules. I am using version 4.0. Please let me know.

Hemanth

Hello Hemanth,

Update Marketing attributes in Interactive Scripting

Hi All,
I would like to know if anyone knows how to :
1. Display multi value fields in Interactive Scripting 5.2
In standard IS editor, there is a dynamic answer "Marketing Attribute 5.1". We need to create new ones. What it the process ?
2. Update Marketing Attributes (or any other multi value fields) in IS. In addition to that, IS Editor in 5.2 don't have "ABAP Call" and "RFC ABAP Call" type actions in the repository, where 4.0 comes with these types. I would like to make a RFC call to R/3 from IS, and display the returned value in the IS.
Thank you,
Vadim Boriskevich.

Hello Mike,
Yes, You have to clearly define what type of marketing attribute it is. i mean whether person or organization.
It is not possible to use marketing attributes which are valid for persons AND organizations for survey.
For eg. If the marketing attribute is of type person(you can see this in the trx Crmd_prof_templ) and the BP is of type Organisation then it wont work for you.
In this case either change the attributes to Organization type ,reattach them in the survey suite and then try.
If you have attribute of person type then the BP should be of the same type.Actually in the code there is a string which matches from both the sides.So in case of any mismatch the updation would not be there.
Hope this answers your question.
Thanks

External lists for updating marketing attributes

Hi,
I'm now working in CRM 3.1, but we're going to upgrade for 5.0 in the autumn. In this relation I'm working on a pre-project where I'm looking for the possibilities for using external lists for updating marketing attributes on existing BPs. How can I map this fields? Do I use advanced mapping fields or structure enhancement using appended fields?
Thanks, Camilla

Camilla,
Yes, this function become standard for CRM 5.0. CRM5.0 ELM provide different format types for create BPs (with marketing attributes), activities and leads. You need to define different format type when you create mapping format. For updating marketing attributes, you need to choose type "Business Partner" type so that all the marketing attributes will be available for you to pick to create the mapping format.
You can look at the CRM5.0 release note and document for more details

Update market attribute for BP

Dear expert, i need to update market attribute of bp in CRM.
At the moment i'm using function module CRM_MKTBP_ASSIGN_ATTRIBUT_TAB to create/update the attribute.
It works fine but there is a problem when I try to update the field ATWRT (characteristic value) on an attribute that already exist. For example if I have:
OBJEK
000000000000000058
ATINN
0000000034
ATWRT
N
and I want to update in :
OBJEK
000000000000000058
ATINN
0000000034
ATWRT
Y
This doesn't work. I found another function to do it, CRM_MKTBP_UPDATE_ATTR_BP, but I don't know if I can use it instead to use CRM_MKTBP_ASSIGN_ATTRIBUT_TAB .
Anybody already found this problem ?
Davide

ok, thanks, and do you know if in case i want to delete an attribute from bp exist another function module ?

Davide

Updating marketing attributes from BW

Hi anyone!
We're using the Analysis Process Designer in BW for updating marketing attributes in CRM. We face two problems:
1. When updating an attribute with several values (have set the multiple value indicator in the transaction maintain attributes) BW only updates one attribute value. The second value overwrites the first one.
2. When using currency as data type for the attribute value we get an error in BW when we start the process of updating the marketing attributes.
Have any of you faced the same issue???
Regards Camilla

Hello,

Please can any one of you provide how to guide or steps if Customization required in BW and CRM side.
One of the method is using APD, but here also i am new..can any one have tried??
Thanks in Advance..

Tables for marketing attributes and relationship

Hi anyone!
I'm creating InfoSets in CRM and I need the tables containing marketing attributes and relationship for BPs. Does anyone of you know which tables this data is stored in???
Regards Camilla

Hi Camilla,
Another option to reading tables : you can use function module CRM_MKTBP_READ_BP_LIST giving the BP guid in table IT_BP_LIST. This will give you the attribute set along with the attributes and their values assigned to the BP.
Example call:
Test for function group      CRM_MKTBP_DB
Function module              CRM_MKTBP_READ_BP_LIST
Import parameters               Value
IV_LANGU                        EN
Tables                          Value
IT_BP_LIST                         1 Entry
                   Result:           1 Entry
ET_BP_ALLOCLIST                    1 Entry
                   Result:           2 Entries
ET_RETURN                          0 Entries
                   Result:           0 Entries

Marketing Attributes and Segment Builder performance

Hello!
Could you pls let me know
1. Maximum number of Marketing attributes one can create at -
    CRMD_PROF_CHAR - Maintain Attributes
2. What is the maximum number of BP's that can be taken into segment builder
    for Target Group creation without Segment Builder performance suffering
Thanks & Regards,
Raju

The solution for the problem is as follows,
When you upgrade to JRE 1.6 version 19 patch 4, in the graphical modeler, the filter drag and drop doesnot work. In this case,    add the following line in you JAVA POLICY file.
    permission java.awt.AWTPermission "accessClipboard","read,write";
    you can find the POLICY file in the path:
       C:\Program Files\Java\<JAVA VERSION>\lib\security
Please note that I found this in note 1359890

Marketing Attributes and Communication info in pdf fact sheet.

Hi,
I have a requirement to get the communication details and marketing attributes in the pdf fact sheet.
Smartform CRM_ACC_ACCOUNT_OVERVIEW_PRN has no coding for these info, although both informations are available in online version.
There is a program CRM_MKTBP_ATTR_HISTORY availble to diplay attributes, but i have no clue how to bring the entire program in smartform. Can anyone help on this how to fetch these info in pdf?
Regards,
Neel

Hi Neel,
You can create a custom smart form for this . take the help of a ABAP programmer.
You can use tables ADRC for communication details .
For marketing attributes : you can use function module CRM_MKTBP_READ_BP_LIST giving the BP guid in table IT_BP_LIST. This will give you the attribute set along with the attributes and their values assigned to the BP.
Example call:
Test for function group CRM_MKTBP_DB
Function module CRM_MKTBP_READ_BP_LIST
Import parameters Value
IV_LANGU EN
Tables Value
IT_BP_LIST 1 Entry
Result: 1 Entry
ET_BP_ALLOCLIST 1 Entry
Result: 2 Entries
ET_RETURN 0 Entries
Result: 0 Entries
One you get these values you can pass this to your smart form.
Hope this helps
Best regards

Marketing Attributes and Survey

Hi!
I am working with CRM 5.0. We need to integrate Survey Results with Marketing Attributes.
in other words:
1) Reading Marketing Attributes when displaying Survey
2) Saving Marketing Attributes acording to Survey results
The survey can be filled in URL (HTML) formate o via Activity.
Do I still have to implement correction instructions from Notes
743978 and 638320 or is there a way to customize the integration from 5.0 on?
Thanks for your help!

hi
to assign attributes to BP u can have two ways:
first is to go inside the BP and there must be a tab for Marketing attributes there under that u need to assign the same.
u can also make a new BP using t code BP and then do the same as i said above.
another way is to go to SPRO and inside that go to the CRM and then marketing and then into the marketing planner and then segment builder
inside that u will have an option that
assign attributes to BP
if u r not able to find that out still then simply use search and then type "attributes"
u will have many options at ur availance
u have to select the same
assign attributes to BP
best regards

AAD Sync - updates to attribute and partition filter rules are not applied

The first Attribute filter rules and/or Directory Partition filters we add with a new AAD Sync Installation work fine immediately.
Any subsequent changes to the rules / new rules / removed rules / updated partition filters don't have an impact on the filtering behavior until we
reboot the AAD Sync host.
We've tried restarting the sync service, all sorts of Full Sync etc., nothing else helps.
We don't have any duplicate rules (have those regularly due to the known bug, but always remove them).
We're running AAD Sync build 1.0.0485.0222.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Thanks for your swift suggestions. We've set up a new environment now which finally works fine. We have the same issue at the customer's site where we'll verify next week (100k user accounts, filters are crucial there).
Problem seems to have been the Full Import that we didn't do or didn't do in the right place (can no longer verify since the original test environment is now gone). We were probably doing Full Synchronization instead (as suggested in
the documentation on MSDN).
Still interesting that the reboots had helped every time - they don't imply a Full Import just by themselves I assume?
Thanks again,
René

How can Sales team assign groups to existing marketing campaigns and send mass emails?

We would like to empower our sales team to be able to identify small groups of contacts in their CRM and assign them to existing Eloqua campaigns that Marketing sets up and makes available to Sales. Ideally Marketing would enable specific campaigns to be available to Sales team through Engage, instead of sending a one off emails.
Does this functionality currently exist?

Juan,
from an earlier post you noted you were using SFDC.
Your sales team could add multiple contacts to a campaign by creating a list view (or report) of your contacts and merely checking the box next to the name and hitting the 'add to campaign' button.
Then you can use the CDO method from this post to have your marketers find the campaign members and add to a campaign. This would work for ongoing campaigns as well as a 'one-time' send.
