Variant Configuration Data download from R/3 to CRM

Hello all
It may be a very dumb question, but I would certainly appreciate an answer.
We are currently using SAP R/3 4.6c and heavily use VC for configurable products and also for pricing.
Now we wish to explore the possibility of using SAP CRM 5.0 to enable our sales force to use CRM PCUI to create quotes for configurable materials.
My questions are as following:-
1. Is it possible to download all VC related data into CRM from R/3 including pricing? I understand that for different VC object, I will have to use different CRM objects but is it possible? If the data transfer is possible, is it typically done by a middleware resource?
2. I would also like to confirm that by creating a run time version and Kbase is pre requisite to enable the download to CRM.
If you could please point me to the appropriate help on this topic, I would really appreciate it.
Best regards
Jai

Hi Gun,
In your message, You stated
As recommended by SAP, if we have R/3 link into our CRM
the best scenario is to get VC product from R/3 into CRM.
Is there any documentation tjhat backs this up? could you give it to me
we have a situation in our company where we have been using a home grown product that not only lets you configure product bu it also takes the user through a selling experience for example it asks the user if he is interested in buying any accessories for the product and provides options through pop messages and the user can select. this way it takes leads the user through questionnaires that comes in pop ups to select a product
we have crm service and ecc implemented and now we need to implement this feature for the crm sales piece
the question is do we go for PME or variant config that is already set up in ECC ?
the link and middle ware set up between ECC and CRM is also available so we can bring the variant configuration from ECC into crm. but how about the questionnaires and the selling experience that is available through pop up questionnaires,
we can set up the selling experience via the Product modeler but as a company we need to make a decision whether we bring the varinat configuration from ecc and use the selling experience for the pop up questionnaires that leads customer
or should we just use sales packages that behaves similarly like varinat configuration and add enahcnements to create the pop- up questionaires
Could you direct /provide some guidance in this area?

How to avoid configuration product downloading from R/3 into CRM

Hello,
We have CRM 4.0 connected with R/3 backEnd and configurable products are downloading from R/3 into CRM with the whole characteristics.
We don´t use this characteristics in CRM to configure this product and the pricing. Is there any way to avoid this information into CRM??
1.- Though the Middleware???
2.- Though the Uninstalling IPC(internet pricing configurator)???
3.- though the item category of the Business Transaction.???
It´d be grateful to get a way because actually, when we enter the product, this one has to be configurated because of the errors.
Thanks a lot,
Luis Angel Fernández

Hello Luis,
First of all I am unable to understand how are you getting the characteristic through material download.
All configuration comes through Knowledge Base and its runtime version.
If you want to block configurable materials from flowing to CRM then set the filter on Item Category Group.
I think you must have different item Category group for configurable material.
Thanks & Regards

Create a production order with variant configurator data

Hello,
Can anyone tell me the way to create a production order with variant configurator data. Is there a BAPI ? an IDOC ?
Is there several steps ?
I have to create an interface which creates automatically PP orders. The data input is a file.
Thanks for your help

Hi,
There are fews BAPI's available for creation of Production Order. They are:
BAPI_PRODORD_CREATE
This bapi will suit to your requirement, as input will be provided from file.
Others are
BAPI_PRODORD_CREATE_FROM_PLORD " this converts planned order to production order
BAPI_PRODORD_CREATE_FROM_REF " this creats production order considering other production order as reference.
Hope your query is answered.
Regards,
Brajvir

and i find many people have met the same thing. But they are spartan series FPGA and i try to low the Resistances of Mode pins,M0 M1 and M2, but the problem does not been solved.
I have read the status Registers and find there is an over-temperature state
and in Impact i could not readback the registers. It is strange.
I am anxious about this problem and have not solved it yet
What reasons may it be?
Hope for your answer, thank you

Hi~I want to know if you solve the configuration problem for virtex-6?
As I encounter the  same configuration problem, I want to consult  you with some question.
Can I have your email?
gszakacs wrote:
I have measured the VCCINT and find it is 1.0V, not 2.997V;
That is not at all surprising. I always assumed the problem is with reading the XADC (system monitor) block and not with the voltage or temperature.
my Reference board is ML605
That would have been nice to know at the beginning...
It seems that you have selected the correct mode, assuming your jumpers are set as required in the ML605 Hardware User's Guide. See table 1-27, table 1-33 and the note below it about switch S1.
I'm not that familiar with the details of this reference design, but it may be that the slave SelectMap circuitry requires a reset or power cycle to actually configure the FPGA. Have you tried power-cycling to see if the FPGA boots from the flash?
I'd also suggest that you select the V6 in the JTAG chain view, then go to the debug menu of Impact and select Read Device Status (this is from memory, but it's something like that). That will not only show the bits of the configuration status register, but also describe what each bit means. Among other things you can check the state of the FPGA's configuration logic and the Mode pins.

On the Flash side I have pulled s# and Hold up to 3.3V with 100k Resistors.
Can someone help me to find the problem?

So does the FPGA try to read the SPI flash when it boots ?
out with scope, probe the clock and the data , see if you can see it streamig out when you boot.
If so, then one other thing I see wrong a few times is data path of the SPI, single bit or 4 bits of data.
you have to make certain the bit file was created in the same width as the fgpa is expecting,
In ISE I think its in Impact where you make the SPI flash file and specify this .

Extracting variant configuration data

Hello,
I am supposed to extract variant configuration data from of SAP.
I´ve looked at the data and tables for class type 300 (KLAH, KSSK, KSML, CAWN) and dependencies like (CUKB, CUKN, CUOB).
I´ve checked forum topics looked for useful BAPIs, but I still have the necessary knowledge for the task.
Does anyone have experience with such a task .
For example extracting configuration a profile data and dependencies?
Help and hints would be great!
Best Regards and Thank you,

Data in Equipment Download from R/3 to CRM

Hi,
I have just performed an equipment download from R/3 to CRM. I now have these records created as individual objects assigned to an installed base. However my equipment record in R/3 has some partners related to it (sold to party), I have checked the partner determination in R/3 and created one in CRM with the same partner functions and assigned it to the product category used for the Equipment download. However even though I the equipment records are downloaded into CRM as individual objects successfully I do not have any related partners for the installed base or individual object.
Has anyone replicated R/3 equipment records into and got their partners relationships replicated too successfully.
I have the post Creation of individual object in crm but there is no mention of partner determination in there.
Any help would be most appreciated.
Regards

For the warranty replication, you'll have to do some programming in CRM using BADI CRM_EQUI_LOAD.

Custom ATP Check using Variant Configuration Data in sales order

I have a requirement to modify the standard SAP ATP check by including the variant configuration data entered on a item. Standard SAP does not use/include the characteristics data when doing the ATP. None of the available user exits would allow me to do this.
The scenario is the client has a configurable product that exist in inventory as one item, base unit as IN2. The batches that exist in inventory have the characteristics of width and length. The order data specifies a width and a length, they need the ATP to identify the availability based on the characteristics of the batch.
The solution was to present the user with a list of batches based on the characteristics that meet the criteria. The user would then have the option of choosing one of the batches which would mean that the line item would include the batch #. If the user does not want any of the batches, they could choose to select a Make to Order option, which would change the item category of the item, so that it creates a production order upon saving the order.
The problem I am having implementing this solution is I have not been able to identify the internal table(s) that contains the characteristics data in SAPMV45A after the configuration screen is called. If anyone knows where that information is during the sales order processing, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Jean,
Have you managed to find a solution as yet? I know you have not received any replies but am hoping you were able to resolve the problem as we are facing the exact issue on our project.
Please let me know,
Thanks,

Data download from CRM from standard browser based transactions

This is, I'm afraid, rather a general question. I'm doing some R&D for a software development company (SAP Partner), and we're looking for a few use cases for where data is downloaded from CRM, specifically from browser based transactions. We're not interested in anything that downloads from ALV - we've got that covered. Our main concern is other download mechanism that might be available in standard CRM functionality.
If anyone can point to some use cases, involving data download from a browser front end (web dynpro, presumably), that would be very useful.

Hello Matthieu,
As far as CRM7.0 is concerned (which is bsp-based) here are a few applications where users can download information from sap to local pc:
- Take any result list table and hit the "download to excel button".
- Start the "data import tool" that is available in UTIL_SALES business role, you'll be able to download an Excel file as well
- Click any link to attached documents to a business object (sales order transaction for example)
- Etc.
If you need help to start one of those application just let me know.

Nicolas.

ps: The R61,R62 and R63 are not weld on the board. The ADV pin is tie to VSS .

Can a IDOC be used for data exchange from R/3 to CRM

Hi All,
First, can a IDOC be used for data exchange from R/3 to CRM
I need to update few fields of SAP CRM Sales order with fields from SAP R/3 Work Order.
To achive this can I use IDOC?
Or do I update the R/3 sales order from R/3 Work order(using some interface or workflow), so that the sales order data flows from R/3 SO to CRM SO.
Please respond immediately.
Regards,
Gopinath

IDocs can be processed by the CRM system via XML/XIF adaptor. As this will be most probably a new interface that is not yet set up, it would be easier to change the orders in R/3 via an appropiate FM which should automatically generate a delta download BDoc.
Even if they are not downloaded automatically a request download (defined via R3AR2 / 3 / 4) should take care of this.
Hope this helps,
Kai

Hello Sri,
Ideally object DNL_CUST_CNDALL should get all changes done to customizing setting in R/3 to CRM.
Did you check the logs in txn CND_MAP_LOG_DISPLAY in CRM?
You can get some hints there, if any error has occured during the download.

In order to do so, we need to ensure that our development and staging systems are in line with production LO-VC data. We have been looking at a possible ALE solution but I would like to get other suggestions.
Any thoughts you may have with regards to either pros and cons of ALE, or another solution we may have overlooked. If your clients are transporting Variant Configuration to production, what method are they currently using to ensure data consistency between environments.
Our landscape currently has two production environments for two separate business lines but both use LO-VC therefore we would like to standardize the process.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi Webb,
General its a complex process to transport VC but for system consistency you can:
1. do the changes Manually in each system
2. Use ALE idoc process to transport.
But ALE transport generally used for fresh VC transport, if the VC already present in transporting system, it may cause inconsistency. Hence if you want to transport some changes then I can suggest you to do MANUALLY.
But if you are transporting VC freshly in each system, go for ALE.

but you can transfer Chracteristics, class, dependencies, configuration profile, dependences, tables, table contents, material master, super bom from one client to another through ALE.
