Upgrade CRM 5.0 to CRM 7.0
Hello,
We are about to initialize CRM 5.0 to CRM 7.0 upgrade. The customer wants to continue enhancing, developing, and making changes in CRM 5.0 system after handing over a copied CRM 5.0 system. Can someone please let me know the procedure to move those enhancements in upgraded CRM 7.0 system?
Also, if anyone can please share your experience as well as any important steps/things to remember, that will be very helpful. OS is Windows and DB is MS SQL.
I appreciate any input on both of the above.
Thank you

Hi,
the enhancements you have made to SAP Gui-screens have to be re-implementet/re-developed when you up upgrade to the new Web-UI - there is no help from SAP upgrade tools to do this.
Therefore, if they continue development in CRM 5.0 (SAP Gui-screens) - you must implement this also in CRM 7.0 - with no help from upgrade tools.

Problem with Billing Engine after upgrade from CRM 5.0 to CRM 7.0
Hello together,
The system of our customer has been upgraded from CRM 5.0 to CRM 7.0. After that some problems occurred regarded the billing.
In the Billing Due List a dump occurs when clicking on an item and then on conditions
Dump message: No function module can be found named "/1BEA/CRMB_DL_PAR_O_DERIVE" however.
(Other classes are new generated after the upgrade)
During the Analysis we looked to the billing engine navigator:
In the Billing Engine Navigator (Transaction: BEFN_F1) the Generation Log shows the following:
We have re-generated the Object PAR in CRMB->DL->Feature->PAR. But this shows the above displayed error message. How can we add value to the Placeholder?
Another question is which impacts does it have if we regenerate the complete billing engine for CRMB with transaction BEA_CONFIG_F1 (Configure Application)?
BR, AnneHi Nawanit,
we checked the key figure settings and categories. Everything is maintained correctly.
Since we work with MRP areas we also checked the "Global Parameters and Default Values for MRP Areas" in APO Customizing: The "Default values for Stock Transfer Documents" is set to "1" = Stock Transport Requisitions for MRP Areas.
BUT: When I try ot change this indicator I get the following message no. /SAPAPO/MRPA000:
"Process. w. stock transp. requisitions is not supported in standard sys. The process with stock transport requisitions will be supported as of SAP R/3 Enterprise Core Release 4.70 with SAP R/3 Enterprise Extension Set 2.0. ".
As far as we work with ECC 6.0, EHP4 this message makes no sense.
Does anyone have another idea?
Thanks

Upgrade from CRM 5.0 to CRM 2007
Hi,
We are planning to update from CRM 5.0 to CRM 2007. We are using CRM for Leads, Opportunities and Account & Contact Management with PCUI as front end. We do have some customized iViews for Sales People and Customers. Can any one, please provide me the step-by-step process to do technical and functional upgrade or point me towards the documentation on the same
You will rewarded with the points. Thanks in advance. Please, Its URGENT...
Cheers,
AmitAmit,
Based on your reply your work looks like the following:
1. Basis teams performs tech upgrade of your dev system
2. Security team grants temporary expanded access in dev system to access new UI and new UI tools
3. Dev/Config team takes standard delivered new UI screens and adjusts screen layouts
4. Dev/Config team adjusts any BADI's built in the previous release
The data model of CRM has not changed. If you stuck with the EEWB and used all the standard methods of enhancing the data model, you don't need to worry about data migration. However if you did not play by the SAP standards you could have more work.
As far as tracking your project you can use solution manager or build simple project tracking in MS project.
If you did no coding period, and only configuration. You should be able to complete all the configuration work in less than two weeks to get the screens as needed. However that is based on having at least one to two weeks of learning the new UI tool.
I would guess a config-only CRM implementation would only need two-three to finish all reconcilation work not including testing and training.
Take care,

Reasons to upgrade from CRM 4.0 to CRM 7.0 ?
Hi Experts,
We have CRM 4.0 working on our client system. Why should they upgrade from CRM 4.0 to CRM 7.0 ?
A few reasons that I can think of are :
1) SAP will not support CRM 4.0 -
But they can get maintenance support from SAP although at a higher cost
2) CRM WebClient - fast and easy to configure and maintain -
but this is not so convincing a reason that they should upgrade and then almost implement whole of CRM again. They already have Portal.
3) Some new functionality added by SAP in the newer versions-----That is good but their business is working good with the existing functionality of CRM 4.0
Please provide some compelling reasons so that we can ask our client to go for upgrade.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
VikasHi Vikas,
Although your customer happy with the functions in CRM 4.0, and they are willing to pay extra money for extended maintenance fee. SAP will end the support of CRM 4.0 sooner for later.
Other reasons I could mention:
1. if there is Java stack then the support of jave stack and the jdk version 1.3.1 is ended.
2. CRM architecture was changed since CRM 6.0 and and 7.0 provided New tools and assistants simplify, standardize, and reduce development effort significantly, i.e. less code development, more flexible customizing. From this prospective, 7.0 is the investment safe release for long-term
3. Enhancement of existing functions, details can be found in CRM 7.0 Release notes
4. If you use compoenent like TREX, definately you will be benefit from newer version, stable, faster etc.
There should be a lot, and you can order upgrade value proposition service from SAP for formal evaluation.
Cheers,

Collision Detection during Upgrade from CRM 4.0 to CRM 2007
We are in the process of doing an upgrade from CRM 4.0 to CRM 2007. As part of this upgrade we are following the steps detailed in the mobile upgrade guide. we are currently working on the collision
resolution issues in the mobile area. The latest issue on the UI layer is caused by changes on tiles like docactdocu2 or capsearch2 that were reverted to standard SAP.
When solving the collisions we have been working on sub objects to these tiles. When changes to theses sub objects were finished not only the collision for the sub object was solved but no collision on the parent object was shown. But the result was that the parent objects have returned to SAP standard on vital objects like custom anchors and/or custom controllers are missing on these tiles resulting in build errors. You can easily see what happened in the version tree of these objects as no merge between the changed branch and the SAP branch took place.
Returning to the tiles version from the changed branch is not possible though this function is offered in the version tree.
Why is the collision resolution functionality not working as we would expect. Why can we not chsange the tile version to the changed branch.
Has anyone else experienced these issues
Regards
EddieHi Shankar
We resolved collisions on script level like "docactdocu2onLoad" by merging or accepting the change list (SAP) version. With the collision on script level being resolved the tile the script belongs to (in this case "docactdocu2") also vanished from the collision list. The result was that the tile was reverted to the SAP version.
With the change list being released we cannot go back to the custom version of the tile except by using the version tree. But the option "Copy to Open Version" offered by a right click on the version node wanted does not work.
Any ideas
Regards

Upgrade from CRM 4.0 to CRM 7.0 and disconnect mobile sales
Hi
With CRM 7.0 we want to utilize the web UI and stop using Mobile Sales. This means we will no longer need the comms station or workbench machines. Assuption is that with links to EEC6 from CRM 7.0 we no longer need to download sales orders and that CDB is redundant so mobile bridge can be turned off..
Has anyone done this before ? Do we need to be aare of anything ?
Best Regards
MHi,
we are also plan to do the same - replace CRM 4 MSA with CRM 7 Web UI. Technical Topics are more planning and checking: How does the User access the Solution (Netbook and UMTS), global availability, closing Mobile Bridge and deleting CDB Tables, check your Z Reports - some Developer used smo Tables which are not updated after the Upgrade. Plus Organizational challenges: With MSA you could do Rolloutwaves - Now for Example Frday Evening shut down all MSA User -> Monday morning All Users Go Live with CRM Web UI. This has to be handled (incl. deinstall/disable of TS Mobile) incl. Training and Support effort
Hope that helps for the Start

BW Impact: CRM 5.0 to CRM 7.0 Upgrade
Experts,
We are implementing CRM 7.0 with reference to CRM 5.0. CRM 7.0 is a new implementation not technical upgrade from CRM 5.0 but CRM 5 is takes as basis for this impl. In this new impl, most of the enhanced fields in transactions are migrated to standard fields. Web UI utilization enabled.
I would like to understand how this will impact BW data flow. As per my BW understanding, we have to use the same datasources used in CRM 5.0, enhance them as in old system and extract data to existing infocubes so that customer can use their existing reports. In case of z-fields that were replaced with standard, we have to use standard fields and change mapping in transformations.
As per some threads, understood that CRM 7.0 is diffrent in functionality in CRM 5.0. It is difficult to configure data flow same as CRM 5.0. There is considerable change in source tables and datasources. Based on this assumption, our BW expert suggested to implement new dataflow for CRM 7.0 i.e new infocube's and new reports.
Please share your experience if you upgrade BW dataflow from CRM 5.0 to CRM 7.0. Suggest the best approach to follow. Is there any documentation on this any where on sap portals.
Best Regards,
Raj.Hi,
Upto my knowledge,there will be NO impact on the current data loads.
After upgrading CRM 5.0 -CRM7.0
Data source of CRM system may get new fields and functionalities get added ,
These changes and updates will be updated in BI system only when the data sources are replicated.
If the data source is new version,it needs to be activated in RSA5 and to repicate, then only the changes will reflectes in BI. -

Data Migration from CRM 5.0 to CRM 7.0
Hi Friends,
We are into a re-implementation on CRM 7.0. The old system was on CRM 5.0.
Since this is not an upgrade, the data will not copied over from the old system into the new system.
So, now I would like to know how to migrate data (master/transaction) from CRM 5.0 into 7.0.
I have read that we can make use of BAPI/LSMW/IDOC/XIF adapters to push info into CRM.
But, the customer wants all the historical data to be in the new system.
I think master data can be handled.... but how to migrate the transaction data?.... i mean the number ranges/document flow.. and other relationships.. how can we maintain the same links into the new system?
If it was a migration from legacy system into the SAP CRM, we could have gone ahead with new number ranges etc... but this migration is from SAP to SAP.
Also, we will have ECC6.0 connected to CRM 7.0. ANy additional things to be taken care of when the connection is live in DEV/QA/PROd instances?
Any pointers to this ?Hi Gary,
As per my understanding, your data migration involves quite complex scenarios covering the CRM and ERP box. As the customer needs the old data to be present in the new implementation, the old data needs to be migrated from the CRM 5.0 to CRM 7.0. For the migration to happen, you need to setup the customization (like the number ranges,Condition Data Tables, etc ). Then only you can proceed with the data migration. Also, you need a proper backup plan as this involves proper backup of the data.
Once the setup is complete, you need to configure the ECC6.0 with the CRM7.0 system. Here also, you need to do a lot of settings and performing the Initial loading of the Adapter Objects. But before you proceed with the entire operation, the entire system landscape must be properly defined with appropriate settings.
My recomendation is to take help of SAP Consultants and data migration experts as they are the best persons to guide you on this. Also it would be great if you can go through the SAP Best Practices documents which are best repository documents to guide you on this.
Have a look on this link for an overview of the CRM Data Migration

Migrate Cprojects data from CRM 4.0 to CRM 5.0
Hello,
Please help me with this ?
We have upgraded the CRM 4.0 (cProjects 3.1) to CRM 5.0 and doesnu2019t bring cProjects data new upgraded server (CRM 5.0).we have installed the add-on CPRXRPM in CRM 5.0 and would like to know how to migrate the cProjects data from CRM 4.0 to CRM 5.0
Regards,
SJOkay the only question is that is your CRM 40 system and the CRM 2007 separate systems? If so then you can use the XIF IDOC adapter to setup the transfer between the two systems.
Now if the CRM 40 system is being upgraded to CRM 2007 then you don't have to "transfer" data.
As far as the CRM consultant role, you better understand basic IDOC setup and be able to do data mapping between the older and newer version. Luckily you shouldn't have a lot of mapping work as 2007 IDOC structure is a refinement of 4.0.
For more XIF information search the CRM general and framework forum.
Take care,
