Executing Customer to Account Data Flows

This section describes how to transfer customer master data from SAP R/3 to Siebel applications. To execute the Customer to Account Data Flow, first make sure you have gone through the installation steps as described in Installation and Configuration. In particular, be sure that you have completed all ALE configuration for the message type DEBMAS flowing from SAP-to-Siebel, you have checked your tRFC BAPI Receiver connectivity, and you have entered sales areas in the Siebel database.

The flow of IDOCs from SAP can be triggered in many ways. A simple way to send a Customer IDOC from SAP is to use transaction BD12. From this transaction enter the Customer ID, Message Type DEBMAS, and your external logical system, and then click Execute. A DEBMAS05 IDOC should be sent to the Siebel application. The new account appears in the Accounts list.

NOTE:  The Siebel Connector for SAP R/3 includes standard integrations for use with SAP R/3 4.6C. The Business Service Data Map expects to receive a 4.6C DEBMAS05 IDOC. If you are using a version of SAP newer than 4.6C you can send a 4.6C IDOC to the Siebel application by setting the version to "46C" in the appropriate Outbound Parameter for the Partner Profile you have created for DEBMAS. You may need to modify this Standard Integration if you are unable to send a 4.6C IDOC to the Siebel application.
