Middleware Configuration and Monitoring for Master Data Transfer from SRM to ECC
Configuration in R/3 R/3 Table Updates CRMCONSUM and CRMSUBTAB For an SRM system, you set the middleware parameters in the OLTP system. If a "CRM" consumer entry for a CRM system has already been entered in the table CRMCONSUM in the OLTP system, the system ignores an additional consumer entry ("SRM", for example). The additional required settings are described in this note. If you correctly implement these settings, another consumer ("SRM", for example) can exist in addition to the "CRM" consumer. You can then determine the RFC destination entry in the table CRMRFCPAR for the "SRM" consumer, instead of for the "CRM" consumer.
Make the following entries for your new consumer in the table CRMCONSUM in the R/3 system: o CONSUMER = SRM (for example) o AKTIV = X o TEXT = SRM Consumer (for example) o Q_PREFIX = R3A
Copy the following entries into the table CRMSUBTAB in the OLTP system: o CONSUMER = CRM, OBJCLASS = MATERIAL o CONSUMER = CRM, OBJCLASS = CUSTOMIZING o CONSUMER = CRM, OBJCLASS = SERVICE_MASTER
When you copy an entry, only change the CONSUMER entry that refers to the consumer name that you created ("SRM", for example in table CRMCONSUM).
