SAP IDM to CRM Integration for establishing relationships between two BP

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have a requirement from SAP CRM to manage Business Partners through SAP IDM 8.0. For now we have been able to execute the standard functionality of creating BPs of person type along with creation of Identities using Business suite connector. But for the next stage of administration we need IDM to create relationships between the BP (of Org Type) and BP (of Person type created through IDM), hence would like to know best way of approaching this issue?

Hello,

we had several times the requirement to create BP and then attach it to an organizational structure.

The only way to do it was to develop a BADI in SAP and call it from IDM. Basically, the implemented BADI is in IDM as a function set privilege, assigning it to a user will call the developed code.

I recommend this read :

Thanks for the recommendation, Clotilde. We have a similar requirement - call 'custom' BADI during the user creation

Here's what I understand from the document, please advise if I'm wrong.

1. Create custom BADI in the SAP system
2. During the initial load, the BADI will be loaded into IDM as FUNCTION_SET* attribute
3. When I assign that FUNCTION_SET* attribute along with System priv, the user will be created and custom BADI will be called.
