Extending "Contact Relationships" segmentation object

[SauMaris]

We have activated the new Contact to Account Relationship functionality that comes with segmentation object and profile for relationships delivered.
How can we extend it with contact custom fields that we have? Basically we would want to add data source _SAP_CF_CE_CONTACT_IA_ERP_CUST from the "Contacts" object.

Would it be possible considering that object SAP_CE_IC_RELATIONSHIP has a key SAP_IC_REL_DB_KEY?

Hello,

As per my understanding, Contacts and "Contact to Account Relationship" have different base HANA view for segmentation. Therefore, it would not be possible to reference the contacts HANA view in the configuration of the relationship Segmentation Profile.

However, I think if you export the existing view _SAP_CF_CE_CONTACT_IA_ERP_CUST and import the same view as the custom view (using "Add Custom View") app then it should be possible to assign it as an additional data source for "Contact to Account Relationship" as the segementation rpfoile (using "Assign to Segmentation" app).

Interesting idea, but what would be key fields to link these two views?

Hello,

Currently, I don't have the system access where the B2B relationship is enabled hence can't really check in the system.

But I think you can use CONTACT_KEY or IC_KEY from _SAP_CF_CE_CONTACT_IA_ERP_CUST to link with "Contact to Account Relationship" segmentation profile/object. You can also give a try if IC_REL_KEY could be projected from _SAP_CF_CE_CONTACT_IA_ERP_CUST to the segementation overview becasue this key will definitely be there in relationship segmentation HANA view.
