Assignment blocks:

  • Interaction History
  • Planned Activities
  • Opportunities

Configuration: I will configure data retrieval configuration for Interaction History Assignment block to show only the Business activity with status completed.

Features

  • For assignment blocks that have been set up for configurable data retrieval, you can define which data records are selected and displayed by defining selection parameters as part of the user interface (UI) configuration. As a result, only specific data is displayed in the assignment block.
  • The system performance can be improved because of a reduced amount of data retrieved from the database. Whether the system performance is improved or not depends on how the configurable data retrieval has been implemented for a certain assignment block.
  • You can change the selection parameters at any time, altering the data selection presented to the business user.
  • You can set selection parameters for each view usage (business role), because the selection parameters are specified as part of the view configuration.
  • Report Views with Configurable Data Retrieval option  (BSP_DLC_CONF_DAT_RETRIEV_USAGE) provides you with a list of all views that support configurable data retrieval.

      Hi Selvam,

          Nice blog, can you comment if the switch is SFW5 entry is UI_FRW_1_DOCU?  We have set this in all of our CRM environments.  In our dev system for BP_BPBT for  accountinterhistov we see the Data Retrieval Parameters but we do not see this in our QA box.

           I run the report BSP_DLC_CONF_DAT_RETRIEV_USUAGE in both Dev & Qa where dev shows display and QA shows hide.  So I am trying to understand why they are hidden in my QA environment.

      Regards,

      Glenn

      This blog states the switch is CRM_INF_1 which looks correct as we do have that active in our crm dev system.
