3.2 Settings for Transactions

3.2.1 Defining BP Transaction Types

UseA transaction type controls the processing of a specific business transaction. It defines the properties and characteristics (for example, sales order, service request, sales call) and defines further on the control attributes (for example, text determination procedure, partner determination procedure, status profile, organizational data profile).

A transaction type is assigned to one or several business transaction categories. This category determines the business context in which the transaction type can be used (for example, service, sales, activity). One business transaction category must be defined as the leading category. This one is not related hierarchically to other transaction categories, but represents a preference. A sales transaction with business activity data would, for example, be more likely to have sales as leading business transaction category than business activity. Depending on the leading business transaction category, only specific combinations are possible with further business transaction categories.

The purpose of this activity is to reduce and adapt the required transaction types.

Procedure1. Access the activity using the following navigation options:

Transaction code SPRO

SAP CRM IMG menu Customer Relationship Management Transactions Basic Settings Define Transaction Types

2. Copy the following transaction types to the new transaction types with the following description. The advantage is that the related activities will be sorted.
