Product Processing in SAP ISU – MasterData Generator
UseThe replication of business partner and business agreement is carried out by the CRM standard. Forinformation on the necessary settings see the SetUp and Load Guide for Business Agreement/ContractAccount and the SetUp and Load Guide for Business Partner Relationships/Roles.
The ISU master data generator plays an important role in the replication of technical objects (connectionobject, premise, point of delivery) from SAP CRM to SAP ISU:● Technical objects such as points of delivery must be replicated from SAP CRM into SAP ISU.
Master data templates with the template category CRMTECHOBJ are used for this purpose.● During the replication of the CRM contract items, contracts must be created in SAP ISU, among
other things. These data changes are made in SAP ISU with master data templates of the categoryCRMNEWCONTRACT.
You maintain master data templates in Customizing for SAP Utilities , under Customer Service ®Master Data Generator ® Define Master Data Templates .
CRMNEWCONTRACT is currently the only template category to which you can assign a CRM product.When you create a master data template with this category, you must enter a CRM supply product,suited for contract items, in the header data. When you create a contract item in SAP CRM, the masterdata template that carries out the respective master data changes in SAP ISU is identified by means ofthe CRM utility product. This means, there is a close relationship between the CRM product and therespective master data template, which you must consider when creating the master data template.
You create the utility product FAMILY in CRM. ISU contracts belonging to this productmust be billed with the rate 1000. Therefore, you create a master data template in SAP ISU with the categoryCRMNEWCONTRACT, to which you allocate the CRM product FAMILY. In theinstallation node (INSTALLATION) of the master data template, you enter the constantvalue R1000 for the rate category. Then this rate category is used for the utilityinstallation in SAP ISU and ensures that the customer is billed with rate 1000.

Parameters for Key FieldsThe master data template contains, among other things, a node for the connection object. This nodecontains the HAUS attribute for the key of the connection object. With this key, you must select theSupply Parameters . The HOUSE attribute name is proposed as parameter name. You can use thisparameter name or choose another name. With the contract replication, the parameter is automaticallypopulated with the key of the connection object. The name of the parameter is irrelevant. This ispossible since the contract replication assumes that the technical objects such as connection object,and so on, have already been created. For this reason, the nodes Connection Object , Premise andP oint of Delivery only contain attributes for the key fields. In total, the parameters for the followingattributes are automatically supplied during the contract replication:
Node Attribute
Connection object HAUS
Premise VSTELLE
Point of delivery INT_UI
Utility installation ANLAGE
Billingrelated device installation MATNR, SERNR, ZWNUMMER
MoveIn EINZDAT, VKONT
Configuration ParametersAfter a product has been assigned to the template, the input help (F4) is available in the processingmode of the template. When assigning a parameter to an attribute, you can request the name of theparameter from the input help.
If the CRM supply product is configurable, the values from the PME configuration and the leanconfiguration are also available in the respective master data template. When you maintain theparameter names, you can use the input help in the configuration to find the names.
You must define, to which node and to which attribute a value is to be transferred from the configurationparameters.
You are defining a configurable attribute with a discount factor. You activate aninstallation fact node of the operand category FACTOR in the master data template. Inthis node, you select the supply as a parameter for the attribute FACTOR and specifythe name from the configuration of the attribute as parameter name. Use the input helpfor the selection.

Additional ParametersYou can use other parameters in addition to the ones mentioned above.
However, these are not automatically populated with values. To assign values to these attributes, youmust use the BAPIs ECRM_CRM_UPLOAD or ECRM_CRM_DOWNLOAD.
Status of a Master Data TemplateThe status of the master data template is displayed in the Header Data tab page of the template. Thepossible instances depend on the category of the master data template. The statuses are maintained viathe menu bar Master Data Template ® Change Status or by using the button. The templates canonly run through the statuses in a defined sequence (Active ® Released ® Obsolete).
Undefined (blank):
The template is in an undefined status and can be deleted without any problems.
Active voice:
The template is in process. No productive use is possible.
Released:
The template is in productive use: The CRM product of the template cannot be used in another template.
Obsolete:
The template is only needed for the documentation. Active use is no longer possible. You can assignthe CRM product to another template.
CRM Product in the Master Data TemplateWhen you process a template, a field is displayed in accordance with the template category in theheader of the template, in which the input help provides the respective CRM / ISU product. Theproducts are automatically retrieved and provided with the input help from the CRM system assigned inCustomizing. In this case, only the ISU products are provided, which have not yet been assigned to amaster data template. Products that are in obsolete templates are, however, provided again (see thesection Status of a Master Data Template). During the assignment of the product to the template, theparameters of the product are entered in the header of the template and provided for later configuration.If you have already maintained a parameter in the template, the system uses the same name to assignthe internal parameters to the product parameters. Basically the processing of the template is easier ifthe product is entered first, since from then on the product parameters can be assigned to the templateby means of the input help.

If required, we can extend our master data template categories, add attributes, or delete or change theattributes of nodes for the template category. The system automatically compares the category andtemplate to ensure that the changes are taken into account in all the templates to be processed.
As soon as you call a master data template in processing mode (can only occur in the statusUndefined or In Process ), the master data template is automatically compared with the master datatemplate category and changed. This ensures that changes to the master data template categoriesdelivered by SAP are incorporated in all templates that are not in production yet. However, you still haveto save this change. As soon as you call up the master data template in the change mode, thecomparison takes place. You are then requested to save the changes, although you might not havemade any changes to the template. If this happens, the category of the template has changed. Acceptthese changes. Otherwise, incompatibilities can arise and the template can become unusable.
