The document discusses integrating SAP CRM with SAP ISU (SAP for Utilities) and SAP ERP. It recommends learning about the integrated data model, which can be found in documentation available on SAP's service marketplace website. It states that integrating SAP CRM with SAP ISU or a complex backend system like SAP ERP for utilities is complex, with the contract integration from CRM to the backend system being the most complex part due to the complexity hidden in CRM but touching many objects in the backend system. The integration of SAP CRM with SAP ISU is considered more complex than a generic ERP-CRM integration.

ould recommend learning about the integrated data model.
You can find the data m
odel for example when going to the service market place for utilities (service.s ap.com/utilities) and follow this path: SAP for Utilities - Product Information --> SAP CRM for Utilities --> Cookbooks& Guidelines --> Pick Cookbook "IS-U/CRM Contract Integration" (you can find this document also by clicking on this link: [https://websmp208.sap-ag.de/sapdownload /011000358700000039982009E/Vertragsintegr_Dez08_e.pdf|https://websmp208.sap-ag.d e/sapdownload/011000358700000039982009E/Vertragsintegr_Dez08_e.pdf] ). There, fo r example on page 6 you find the data model. Now, I would furthermore recommend to have a look at each of the objects and see how they integrate (even for the generic ones like business partner or business agreement, there might be some extra settings because they are used in the util ity context). For all of those objects you will find usefull information on the page mentioned above, there are a lot of cookbooks provided there. Also, the dat a integration is discussed in depth in training IUT255. Interaction Center proce sses for Utilities are discussed in class IUT260. Did you already have a look at our RKT pages ([service.sap.com/rkt-crm|service.s ap.com/rkt-crm])? There is also a section for Utilities where the latest product developments are presented.

However I would like to learn that what are the difficulties (in a generic conce pt) in terms of SAP CRM and SAP ISU integration. To be more precise, are there a lmost same effort needed to integrate SAP ISU-SAP CRM and SAP ERP-SAP CRM with s imilar scope let's say. Or is SAP ISU-CRM integration more difficult, complex th an SAP ERP-SAP CRM integration. thanks in advance. Mehmet 0 likes SAP Employee Franziska Mickley replied April 30, 2009 at 18:56 PM Hi Mehmet, the consulting answer is "it depends" Well, to be honest it is really hard to judge for me because I never integrated generic ERP with generic CRM but did a lot of implementations for SAP CRM for Ut ilities with SAP ERP (or previous product versions). But, as the data model of the Utility Backend system (being SAP ERP) is very com plex, I would say that the integration of SAP CRM to such a complex backend syst em is again complex. The biggest or most complex part to integrate is the contract from CRM to ERP be cause in CRM, all the complexity is "hidden" behind a product and in the backend system this is touching a lot of objects like the contract, the installation, e tc. So, my answer is "yes", it is more complex. Hope this helps? BR, Franziska 0 likes Mehmet Ergul replied May 04, 2009 at 11:26 AM thnak you very much Fransizka. regards Mehmet 0 likes
