SAP SRM / CRM TIPS – Downloading Products from ERP to SRM / CRM





There is 31000 products in ERP and only 4100 in CRM. I’ve found products that are not in CRM!

I made the download creating a request via transaction R3AR2 but I have just looked at the filters on the material object via transaction R3AC1, and there is a lot of filter settings. Does those filters influence the request I created?

Filters that are set in txn:R3AC1 for the object would be applicable for all types of load including request load, delta load and initial load.

You can check tables CRMM_PR_SALESA CRMM_PR_SALESG for corresponding MVKE records of R/3.

What I could understand is that you have some problem with your filter conditions.

Hence forth, I would like to clarify the filter conditions and will try explain it to you how it works :

Case 1 :

In R3AC1 : Filter is VKORG : 1000

In R3AR2 : Filter is VKORG : 2000

On Request Download from R/3 to CRM, Data will get downloaded for the Request Filter.

Case 2 :

In R3AC1 : Filter is VKORG : 1000

KUNNR : 1000 – 2000

In R3AR2 : Filter is KUNNR : 1500 – 2500

On Request Download from R/3 to CRM, Data will get downloaded for KUNNR 1500 – 2500 with VKORG :1000 from R3AC1.

Case 3 :

In R3AC1 : Filter is VKORG : 1000

KUNNR : 1000 – 2000

In R3AR2 : Filter is VKORG : 2000

KUNNR : 1500 – 2500

On Request Download from R/3 to CRM, Data will get downloaded for KUNNR 1500 – 2500 with VKORG :2000 from R3AR2.

At the End of the Day, The filter works as follows :

1. SAME TABLE FIELD present in R3AC1 and R3AR2 :

Result : The filter conditions of request download will override the filter conditions of R3AC1.

2. DIFFERENT TABLE FILED present in R3AC1 and R3AR2 :

Result : The filter conditions of both R3AR2 and R3AC1 are considered and the data is filtered in the Request download. So , basically if the fields are different, THE AND condition is applied on the filter.

SAP SRM Tips – How to configure product category





The usual scenario is where clients have product category maintained in R/3 (SPRO / Logistics – General / Material master / Settings for key fields / Define Material groups).
You can use LSMW to create product categories.

Then you have to replicate those categories / Material groups to SRM. You can do this by Midleware (transaction R3AS). You can see hierarchies in srm at transaction comm_hierarchy.

SAP SRM TIPS- How to deactivate email notifications (alerts) when employee is changed in PPOMA





These alerts are generally started in customizing. The alert event
triggers some modification with the employee and it sends some e-mail
notifications.

If you don’t want these alert you can deactivate in the customizing
table BBPC_EVENTMAP. Try doing this and check the behaviour.

Frequently, the following entries are maintained:
ADRESS_CHANGED
DEPARTMENT_CHANGED
ERROR_OCURRED

It means that if a modification or error occur with these fields, a
notification will be started.

In addition, some information regarding the alert management:
BBPC_EVENTMAP, BBPC_EVENT and BBPC_ACTIONMAP.

Table BBP_EVENTMAP determines if eventing is to be done for which
business object type.

Table BBPC_EVENT determines what category belongs to what business
object type. Additionally, deadlines are set here.

Table BBP_ACTIONMAP determines what action class is to be called for
what category.

To deactivate the alerts in BBPC_EVENTMAP
(With an admin user) follow the steps below:

-> SE16
-> Table BBPC_EVENMAP
-> Object type “BUS1006003″ – “CL_BBP_EVENTS_BP”
-> Select the entry (checkbox)
-> Click on the pencil icon
-> Checkbox field (there is an ‘X’, change to a blank entry)
