.3.2 Settings for Transactions 3.2.1 Defining BP Transaction Types Use A 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. Procedure 1. Access the activity using the following navigation options: Transaction code SPRO SAP CRM IMG menu Customer Relationship Management Transactions Basic Settings Define Transaction Types

4 Pre-Assembled Deployment Use If you follow the “pre-assembled deployment” approach, some parts of the SAP Best Practices for CRM content are already activated, whereas others still need to be activated. Therefore, all configuration tasks are classified into one of the following categories:
Pre-Assembly (“Pre”): Configuration tasks classified as ‘Pre-Assembly’ have already been executed and do not need to be re-activated during an implementation project. Post-Processing (“Post”): ‘Post-Processing’ configuration tasks still need to be performed in the target system landscape. Some tasks can be classified as both ‘Pre-Assembly’ and ‘Post-Processing’; this means that these tasks have been pre-assembled, but need to be checked and potentially modified during the post-assembly phase.
