Use

In this activity you define the different options for the origins of your lists.

The values that you define here are available in the input help for the field Origin.

Requirements

If you also use External List Management in SAP CRM, then you need to note the following:

  • When you import lists into SAP BW that you then want to copy into the CRM System using the Segment Builder, you must make sure that the Customizing for list origins is identical in both systems (BW and CRM).
  • When copying lists into the CRM System, only the technical key for the list origin is copied. To make sure that the list origin in CRM has the same semantic, it must be defined identically in BW and CRM (see example).

Standard settings

Activities

Example

Problems can occur if the definition of the origin options were to look as follows:

Definition of list origin in BW

Origin    Description

000001    Cebit

00002    Sapphire

00003    Data provider XY

Definition of list origin in CRM

Origin    Description    Identification Type    Consumer

000001    Sapphire

00002    Cebit    CRM001    X

If a list with origin 000003 is copied into the CRM System. this list cannot be saved in CRM, as list origin 000003 is not recognized.

If a list with origin 000001 is copied into the CRM System, this list receives origin 000001 in CRM. However, this origin has another description and another semantic.
