Contact Person Type 

Purpose

This option allows you to make the necessary Customizing settings to continue to see the contact person type, as available in releases prior to SAP CRM Mobile Sales 3.0, together with the UI behavior of these earlier releases:

·        CONT – Contact persons with a BUR001 relationship with a business partner. A business partner relationship is mandatory.

·        PIPP (Person in Private Practice) – Contact persons without a BUR001 relationship with a business partner, but who contribute to the growth of a company in an indirect way, for example freelancers.

·        PRIV (Private Contacts) – Personal contact details of the sales representative.

Process Flow

...

       1.      Choose Mobile System Maintenance ® Cross-Component Settings ®Choice Fields.

       2.      Select the choice field CONTYPE. It can have two values:

¡        Required – displays the contact person type

¡        Not Required – does not display the contact person type

       3.      An application parameter which corresponds to the CONTYPE choice field is also available. It is also called CONTYPE and can be seen in the Application Parameter tile set. Its default value is 'Not Required'.

So that the contact person type is displayed, change this value to 'Required'.

       4.      Run ConnTrans to transfer and replicate these changes across all mobile clients.

When the mobile clients are restarted, the Contact Person Type field will be displayed in all Contact Persons tiles.
