Hi,
at the moment we have a Netweaver Portal 7.0 with CRM Business Package 5.0.0 SP1.
We are planning to upgrade our Portal to Version 7.3 but are not able to upgrade CRM to 7.0 at the moment, so we have to stay a while at Version 5.0.
Could anybody tell me if it is possible to use our current Business Package also in 7.3?
As i see there are no further SPs for this Business Package, so i only can use the one i already have!?
Many thanks for your answers
Regards
Alex
Hi,
We are wondering the same thing. Were you able to find out if CRM 5.0 SP1 works with 7.3?
Hi,
during the installation of the Business Package JSPM threw an error.
The content was installed but the included services of the business package were not deployed.
Next week i will try it again with NWDS Deployment.
I will update this thread next week.
I think the main problem is that perhaps classes are used that are no longer available in 7.3... but i don´t really know at the moment.

Alex
I experienced the same thing. JSPM threw the error. I went through NWDS and tried redeploying the BP and it failed. You might be right about classes. I opened up a OSS note to ask SAP if this compatible anymore. Will let you know.
Hi,
did you already get an answer to your OSS message?
Many thanks

The OSS message is still opened. They haven't given me an answer yet and are asking what is not working.
Hi,
sorry to ask again... did you get an answer from SAP or did you already manage to solve this issue yourself?
Many thanks
Alex
Alex, SAP is still working on this. I was able to start the CRM DAM core services but it is still not working
Hi Lee,
every month a new post in this thread :-)
Did you finally manage to solve this problem?
Many thanks

Hello,
We are also facing same issue : Installing BP CRM 5.0 with EP 7.31.
Error we have :
Hereafter you will find summarised what we tried (without success) :
We raised an OSS Note asking for BP CRM 5.0 compatibility with EP 7.31. SAP answer is : no compatibility.
We do not understand why and are looking for a document where it is clearly indicated.

Hello,
We have upgraded our Portal to EP 7.31 SPS4 over the past week-end, and were still using CRM 5.0 Iviews before theupgrade.
Unfortunatly, we did not check the compatibility in DEV and QAS, and now that we have upgraded we are facing the same error messages :
Caused by: com.sapportals.portal.prt.runtime.PortalRuntimeException: Exception
in SAP Application Integrator occured: Unable to parse template
'<PSID.CRMUnique>'; the problem occured at position 0. Cannot process
expression <PSID.CRMUnique> because Cannot retrieve CRMUnique from
null
Did you find a SAP document where the incompatibility is clearly indicated ?
Thanks
Hello all. We have not yet upgraded to Netweaver 7.3 in production but in the meantime we have stopped using the application which uses this CRM business package. We knew our business was changing there application so we held off on our upgrades. Below is SAP's response.
"Is CRM Business Package 5.0.0 SP2 compatible with Netweaver 7.3 Portal?Are
there any steps to get this to work?"
based on the question that were raised previously we were able to identify that with the current CRM package (5.0 SP2) installed on your systems,compatiblity with Netweaver 7.3 Portal is not possible and hencewe are landing into this issue.Presently there are no workarounds to make Netweaver work with the current CRM set up, only way to achieve compatiblity would be to upgrade to CRM 7.0 or higher.
