What is the difference between R/3 & SAP CRM

Hi,
Please explain the difference between R/3 & SAP CRM

Hi Abhishek,
R/3 and CRM are two completely different systems. R/3 is the leading system. CRM is like a child system of R/3. R/3 interacts with many other systems.(like SRM ,SCM, CRM etc).
Not all functionalties of R/3 will be available in CRM.
CRM has functionlaities whch are more customer oriented where we can capture all customer related data where R/3 is a system where backend processing happens EG: Billing.
For Eg: you create a sales order in CRM and then send it to R/3 for billing purposes.
The communication between R/3 and CRM is done by a technology called Middleware. You can refer to the below link for this.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm50/helpdata/en/c3/95fc381478ab6fe10000000a11402f/frameset.htm
You can refer to 'help.sap.com' and under 'SAP Business Suite' you will find 'SAP Customer Relationship Management' which gives you comprehensive view about CRM.
CRM has various releases like 4.0,5.0,6.0,7.0(7.0 being the latest). You will find all the details about CRM under the above path.
Also if your search in the web you will find lots of articles on CRM and R/3.
Thanks,
Abishek

    Hi Tiffny,
    actually I don't see a difference as "mySAP2004" is not an official name for anything
    There is "mySAP ERP 2004" which is the marketing name for a bunch of functionality provided by several different bits of software components.

  • What is the difference between ERP2004 and SAP 47 Enterprise?

    Currently we have SAP 47 Enterprise with WAS 6.2. I understand ERP2004 is NW and 6.4 sp9. Can any one please let me know the major difference between ERP2004 and SAP 4.7 Enterprise ( more from abap / workflow view)?
    Thanks
    Swamy

    From Abap point of view some of the major add-on in erp2004,netwever :
    1) Development of webdynpro studio for java development for portal and iviews.
    2) Major abap development uses <b>Abap object oriented</b> methodology, rathet hten old conventional Abap,i.e MVC model (Model,View,Controller) where in it uses concept of classes,interfaces,etc.
    3) Advanced BSP tech using MVC model to develop web based modules

  • Hi can some tell me what is the difference between sapr3 and sap business 1

    is there any difference between sap business one and sap r3 if i learn sd module

    Hi Siva,
    The SD module from R/3 is completely unrelated to the business processes and technologies used in SAP Business One (SBO). R/3 and SBO are completely different products and direct comparisons are difficult. I don't think learning one will help in any degree in learning the other. With R/3 you tend to specialise in one area (eg SD) as the complexity and scale of implementations requires this specialisation. With SBO, a single consultant would be expected to know the whole product. SBO is a much simpler product designed for small to medium sized companies so the processes are much more generic.

  • What are the versions of BW and what is the difference between them

    what are the versions of BW and what is the difference between them

    Hi Reddy,
    SAP BIW 2.0a, 2.0b
                   3.0a, 3.b
                   3.1c
                   3.5  and Now BI 7 are some of the versions.
    Major difference between BW3.5 and BI 7.0 versions:
    1. In Info sets now you can include Infocubes as well.
    2. The Remodeling transaction helps you add new key figure and characteristics and handles historical data as well without much hassle. This is only for info cube.
    3. The BI accelerator (for now only for Infocubes) helps in reducing query run time by almost a factor of 10 - 100. This BI accelerator is a separate box and would cost more.
    4. The monitoring has been improved with a new portal based cockpit. Which means you would need to have an EP guy in ur project for implementing the portal.
    5. Search functionality hass improved!! You can search any object. Not like 3.5
    6. Transformations are in and routines are passé! Yes, you can always revert to the old Tcodes.
    7. The *Data Warehousing Workbench *replaces the Administrator Workbench.
    8. Functional enhancements have been made for the Data Store object:
    New type of Data Store object, Enhanced settings for performance optimization of Data Store objects.
    9. The transformation replaces the transfer and update rules.
    10. New authorization objects have been added
    11.*Remodeling *of Info Providers supports you in Information Lifecycle Management.
    12 the DataSource: There is a new object concept for the DataSource .
    Options for direct access to data have been enhanced.
    From BI, remote activation of Data Sources is possible in SAP source systems.
    13. There are functional changes to the Persistent Staging Area (PSA).
    14. BI supports real-time data acquisition.
    15. SAP BW is now known formally as BI (part of NetWeaver 2004s). It implements the Enterprise Data Warehousing (EDW). The new features/ Major differences include:
    a) Renamed ODS as Data Store.
    b) Inclusion of Write-optimized Data Store which does not have any change log and the requests need no activation
    c) Unification of Transfer and Update rules
    d) Introduction of "end routine" and "Expert Routine"
    e) Push of XML data into BI system (into PSA) without Service API or Delta Queue
    f) Introduction of BI accelerator that significantly improves the performance.
    g) Load through PSA has become a must. Info Packages are used to load data upto PSA only.
        You need to create DTP to update data from PSA to Data Target.

  • What's the difference between old SAP appraisal system and the new SAP appraisal system?

    Hi Experts,
    What's the difference between old SAP appraisal system and the new SAP appraisal system?
    Can anyone shed some light please.
    Thanks.

    emgr_update no longer sets or gets the thesaurus from workbench. In 11 all workbench configurations are saved in IFCR configuration directly.
    Hence the thesaurus entry should be added directly in version 11 Workbench as opposed to xml file in older versions.
    And if you want to migrate the changes across environments then import_site script in control directory can be used.

    what is the difference between SAP HR module and SAP-ABAP-HR?
    Thanks in advance..:)

    Hi,
    SAP-HR is software component like SAP-BASIS is a component.
    Its part of the CORE.
    As far as I know there is nothing like SAP-ABAP-HR.
    But ABAP offers some special syntax for HR though.
    Like INFOTYPES, PROVIDE ENDPROVDIE etc.

  • What is the difference between J2EE Engine vs WAS in SAP

    Hello All,
    What are the differences between J2EE engine included with BW 3.0B and the WAS 6.20 ? what are the limitations of J2EE engine in terms of functionality.
    Thanks in advance
    Ravi

    Hello Nitzan,
    Thanks for the response. Just to clarify my question, There is a J2EE engine as part of BW 3.0B. What is the difference in terms of functionality of J2EE engine which comes bundled with BW 3.0B versus say WAS 6.20.
    1. The J2EE engine which comes bundled with BW 3.0B, is it a run time or a full product where a java app can be developed and deployed to integrate with BW or do you need WAS for that purpose.
    Thanks & regards

  • What'z the difference between the Commercial Invoices and

    What'z the difference between the Commercial Invoices and
    Invoices/Excise Invoices? Also I understand that we can combine 2~3
    invoices and can create one commercial invoice? If it is possible, how
    to create the same?
    cheers
    shalsa007....

    Hello,
    A commercial invoice is a bill for the goods from the seller to the buyer. Commercial invoices are utilized by customs officials to determine the value of the goods in order to assess customs duties and taxes.
    In general there is no standard form for a commercial invoice although they tend to contain many of the following features:
    •     seller's contact information
    •     buyer's contact information
    •     consignee's contact information (if it is different from the buyers)
    •     invoice date
    •     a unique invoice number
    •     sales terms (usually in incoterm format)
    •     payment terms
    •     currency of sale
    •     full quantities and description of merchandise (Generally this includes unit price and total price. Product descriptions should be consistent with the buyer's purchase order. Including the Harmonized System commodity codes can be helpful, especially in countries that are WTO members.)
    Excise invoice “Original for Buyer copy”, whether  prices are inclusive or exclusive of excise duty.
    The invoice in which the Excise duties are included.
    As per Indian tax system, Excise duty (16%) is payable by each manufacturing unit on the value of manufactured goods / on the value added. The manufacturing plant is supposed to submit an excise duty report on fortnightly / monthly basis. Various registers (RG1, RG23A, RG23C, PLA) are maintained for that purpose, which record all the transactions including movement of goods, cenvat credit available and cash balance available.
    In SAP, we use transaction j1id for configuration and j1iin, j2i7, j1i5, j2i5, j2i6, j1ip for creating, extracting and printing excise invoice. 
    *Please reward if this helps**
