Note Note

Planning profile 4CRMMP01 is not included in a planning profile group since it is not designed to be used in Marketing Planning. It is a technical profile that can be used in BPS (transaction BPS0) to view all planning objects that are relevant for marketing planning only. You only need it if you want to analyze or change the standard content.

Defining Custom Planning Content
Key Figures
  • You define custom key figures for the characteristic 0MEASURE in Customizing for Customer Relationship Management under Start of the navigation path Marketing Next navigation step Marketing Planning and Campaign Management Next navigation step Key Figure Planning Next navigation step Define Key Figures End of the navigation path. Depending on your system and software installation, calling up this activity brings you to two different places: SEM Measure Builder (if you are using an earlier version of BPS) or the BI master data maintenance (if you are using the BPS version that comes with SAP CRM 5.0 or higher). You can define custom key figures in either environment.

  • You define custom key figures for 0CRM_MKTSPD in Customizing for Customer Relationship Management under Start of the navigation path Marketing Next navigation step Marketing Planning and Campaign Management Next navigation step Key Figure Planning Next navigation step Define Marketing Spend Types End of the navigation path.

Other Planning Objects

You set up your custom planning environment (planning areas, planning levels, and planning packages) in Customizing for Customer Relationship Management under Start of the navigation path Marketing Next navigation step Marketing Planning and Campaign Management Next navigation step Key Figure Planning Next navigation step Planning Workbench End of the navigation path. Alternatively, you choose transaction BPS0 in the BPS system.

Note Note

When you are setting up your planning layout for key figure planning in SAP Customer Relationship Management (SAP CRM), you can only assign one planning layout to a planning level. It can include several planning functions or sequences but they must be part of the planning layout. Furthermore, you can assign only one planning level with exactly one planning layout to a planning profile.
