Using the APD to update material master in CRM

Does anybody know if it is possible to update material master records in CRM from BW using the Analyses Process Designer with target CRM?
I would prefer to know this before creating a custom data target adapter in the CRM SPRO, writing all the required function modules and then finding out that it does not work.
Thanks,
József.

Which direction??

when we are executing this bapi with inputs, it is showing data updated or created but when we are checking it in MAterial Master the data (MOving Price ) is not getting updated.
Please advise,
Thanks.

I am trying to use BAPI_MATVAL_PRICE_CHANGE to change the price of a material in material master
(The moving average price [MAP] in Accounting View 1)
Using the BAPI, I enter
--> RFC target are
-> Material No.

when I run the BAPI, i get error message (This can be seen in the returns table)
ID --> CKMLSENDPRICE
MESSAGE NUMBER --> 701
DETAILS --> No customizing data for Valuation Area XXXX found
PLease advise.

Update material master data BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVE DATA

Hi All,
I am using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVE DATA Fm to update the material master data .
I want to change material type vend (which already existed) to HIBE material type .
Even though Basic data view populated its not updating in Material master .
Which views do i need to populate to change material type one value to other value?

if you use FM - BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVE DATA ,you can not update material type , use bdc program to update material type ,
See the transaction : MMAM - No BAPI to update material type
you need to use BDC Program.

How can i update material master standard price.

Hi Everyone,
i would like to know if there is any way i can update my MM Std Price everytime i make any purchase.
I.e i have std price 40, but next time when i make PO and update Inforec for 70 so i want this 70 also take effect in my material master. Is any expert can tell me about this functionality or any alternate. would be great help
Ali

If you are using std prices then these do not vary unless someone is manually changing them (or using a program to do this). That is the main point of std prices, they do not change unless you change them yourself.
MAP and standard prices are used in material master and it has nothing to do with price with which you will sell your customer.
MAP and Standard prices will just hit you inventory account and COGS account once you will do PGI.
I am assuming that you are talking about the price at which you sell to your customer.The easy way of tracking changing prices is that you can make them manual conditions and based on your information you can put them manually in your sales order.
It is not recommended to change standard price constantly. At this period end, modify the standard price in material Master & continue.
This can be a regulr activity at period ends, say every month end or quater end or half yearly or yearly. In general it is prctices on yearly basis, but as per the requirement you can consider the period.
Just go throught the links given below
http://www.sap-img.com/materials/purchasing-tips.htm
http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/Print46c/en/data/pdf/MMIVMVAL/MMIVMVAL.pdf
Primarily, You cannot maintain both Standard Price & MAP. You can maintain only one of it.
It is recommended that standard price should not be changed at randomly, but as a policy, if required, it should be changed at period end, say monthly, quaterly, Half-yearly or yearly.

Use of profit center in Material master

Hello Consultants,
Kindly explain me the use of Profit center in material master in Sales General/Plant and Cisting 1 view?
Thanks,
SK

Hi,
Generally you use this field of profit center based on the organizational logic decided while implementing the SAP.
i.e. Suppose, you want to have your profit center with nomenclature as Site (Plant) + Line of Business (LOB). So, according to this logic you map the same line of business with External Merchandise category and concepts (according to your verticals of business). So, whenever you create any transactions related to this article (material), system will pick up profit center from this article master and for common profit center (for expenses such as service tax and other which needs to be done at common and after that distribute through assessment / disrtibution cycle).
Hope it will clear the purpose of the same from above example. Pls get back for further query.
Thanks & Regards,

I often changed classification with LSMW using IDOC CLFMAS

Inter company PO is not pulling the valuation price from Material Master

Hi Experts,
We have a scenario, Inter-company PO with pricing procedure which pulls Material Price from Material Master (Std Price), similar to intra company PO
Even after maintaining the std price in the supplying plant , system is not pulling the Valuation price from Material master only for a particular Material
I checked the Plant level attributes ( for ex: Plant Mat status, client level status and everything looks fine )
Could you guys please mention what would be the issue ?
Thanks in advance

Populating CRM marketing attributes using the APD

Hi Experts
We are having problems with populating CRM marketing attributes using the APD. When we run our process we get the error message:
CRMBW_ATTR_WRITE005: Error when processing function module CRMBW_UPDATE_BPMKT_5. Message no. RSAN_MDL024
As you can see, we are using the new function module CRMBW_UPDATE_BPMKT_5 since the old CRMBW_UPDATE_BPMKT did not work either.
Do we have to add a reference to a infoobject in transaction CRMBWTARGETS? We have not done this because the marketing attribute in CRM doesnt have decimals and all the objects in BI have. Could this be the cause of the error?
Kind regards
Erik

Hi Ramesh,
Thanks for quick reply.
I have already followed the procedure you have described. Since there is not common objects between ODS and Bpatner infoobject, i am not able to do mapping.
for eg. my ZBPARTNER infoobject has attributes like zfooty, ztennis and zrugby but my ODS has char name , char value, counter for multiple values infoobjects.
I am following the example in the demo content to work out the process but could not understand how the data is getting uploaded from ODS to Business partner.

I have a macbook purchased in 2009. I just purchased a new ipod and am in a loop of updates that seems to have no end. Do I need snow leopard? Will that then let me use the latest itune update?

You need to buy Snow Leopard from the online Apple Store. You don't need Mountain Lion.

Go Daddy UCC Certificate: "ExRCA can only validate the certificate chain using the Root Certificate Update functionality from Windows Update"

Hello,
I have this issue regarding certificate chains while performing Outlook Anywhere connectivity test
by Microsoft Remote Connectivity Analyzer:
"ExRCA can only validate the certificate chain using the Root Certificate Update functionality from Windows Update. Your certificate may not be trusted on Windows if the "Update Root Certificates" feature isn't enabled."
Note: even if I got the error, Outlook Anywhere and
ActiveSync services work fine.
Environment:
- Exchange 2007 with SP3
- Go Daddy Multiple Domains UCC certificate (up to 5 Subject Alternative Names)
I already read and followed instructions on this TechNet post
Can I safely ignore this warning about the SSL cert? Using GoDaddy UCC cert but it is a little bit different by this case.
So after an investigation I understand the issue above is related to SSL certificate
Certification Path (see screenshots below).
NO ERRORS on ExRCA checking
Go Daddy Secure Certification Authority is under Intermediate Certification Authorities
repository
Go Daddy Class 2 Certification Authority is under Intermediate Certification Authorities
repository
Starfield Technologies (http://www.valicert.com)
is under Trusted Root Certification Authorities repository
ERROR on ExRCA checking
Go Daddy Secure Certification Authority is under Intermediate Certification Authorities

Can you add some useful information ?
I'm opening a support ticket at Go Daddy; I hope they could me some positive feedbacks.

Strange I have a feeling the exrca tool can't validate the godaddy class2 root authority due some older compability and wants to use the older original root authority valicert owned godaddy. Or when the exrca tool is validating the root CA it only has the
goaddy class2 root ca that was issued by valicert and not the standalone cert when doing the comparision. I sent the question to MS and will let you know when I hear back.
You can get rid of it
https://certs.godaddy.com/anonymous/repository.seam
Download the cert
◦gd_cross_intermediate.crt
Then import it into the trusted root cert authority on your CAS boxes. Then you need to delete the other godaddy class2 root authority. Make sure you see the one you imported both will be named goaddy class2 root authority but one will be issued by valicert.
Re-run the test and it will go away, I also saw the error with my domain as well using godaddy and got rid of it by using the new cert authority.
