Introduction to SAP CRM Case Management- Part V

In my previous blog post I’ve described the authorisation objects and enhancement spots available in CRM Case Management (http://scn.sap.com/community/crm/service/blog/2013/11/07/introduction-to-sap-crm-case-management-part-iv).

In this last blog, I am going to explain the basic differences between SAP CRM Investigative Case Management and SAP CRM Case Management.


Both Case Management solutions are available out-of-the-box within any SAP CRM.

Basic differences are described below:

However if you need to integrate CRM Business Object such as services order, sales order, opportunities or Financial Documents you required to enhance the element type for Investigative Case Management.

In the meantime both options are available for managing electronic cases in the CRM Solution.
