Recommendation

We recommend that you limit the size of the message (Block Size) to 100 for the loading of the necessary customizing objects. We recommend block size 10 for the customizing object GWA_COUNTRY. To change the block size, call transaction R3AC3 and display the details of the object. Choose DisplayChange and enter the value 100, or for the customizing object GWA_COUNTRY, the value 10, in the field Block Size.  

Note

If you change the customizing settings (see Customizing Settings for Groupware Integration) again after you have already loaded the customizing objects, you need to reload the appropriate customizing objects using transaction R3AS.

     You have configured the host name and port number of your Groupware server by performing the Maintain General Groupware Settings activity in the SAP Implementation Guide under Customer Relationship Management → CRM Middleware and Related Components → Groupware Integration. This step is mandatory for the loaded objects to function.

     You have customized the internal SyncPoint by performing the activities in the SAP Implementation Guide under Customer Relationship Management → CRM Middleware and Related Components → Internal SyncPoint. This step is mandatory for the loaded objects to function.

You must ensure that:

      The queues of type ISP_D*, which process inbound Groupware messages to the Groupware Adapter, are empty.

      The queues of type ISP_D* are registered under the Queue IN scheduler.

      The queues of type CRI* are registered under the Queue IN scheduler.
