Calling the SRM-MDM Catalogue from SAP PM

Dear SRM-MDM Experts,
We are trying to call the SRM-MDM Catalogue from ECC 6 Plant Maintenance module using tcode IW31. We have performed the following config in PM:
1. Define Catalogs
2. Assign Catalogs to Task List Types
When we create a Plant Maintainance order using tcode IW31, there is a Catalog button on the bottom of the screen. When we click on this Catalog button, it give us message u201CNo Catalog could be determinedu201D. What else do we need to configure to make this work?
Thanks in advance
Kind regards
Pedzi

I figured it out. Issue resolved. I had to link the Catalog to teh PM order type.

Best Practice transport procedure for SRM-MDM Catalogue repositories change

Hi,
I have a question regarding SRM-MDM Catalogue repository change transports.
We currently have two QA servers and to Production servers (main and fail-over).
We are investigating the need of a Development server.
Changes are being made to the repositories on the system, and I see the need of a dev server.
What is best practice for SRM-MDM Catalogue?
With only QA and Prod environments I guess Repository schema transport is the best option, since there has not been created a Refference file (which is needed for change file transport).
Any other options?
We are running MDM as well, with dev, QA and prod environments. Here we use CTS+ for transports.
Is it best practice to use CTS+ also for SRM-MDM Catalogue transports?
KR,
Thomas

Hi Thomas.
What is best practice for SRM-MDM Catalogue?
SAP recommends to have the landscape model like DEV-QA-PROD.
So in case of catalog as well if we follow the same technique it will help you to have a successful implementation
Any other options?
As a part of proceeding with the CTS+ you need to create a reference file
Refer the Link: [CTS+|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d0dd1ae0-36e5-2b10-f8b4-e6365e643c0b?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true] for more details
Is it best practice to use CTS+ also for SRM-MDM Catalogue transports?
It is upto the requirement. if you feel there are many changes in catalog xml schema in various phases in an automatic manner then you can go ahead with CTS+ or you can perform the existing method of exporting and importing the schema to the repository.
Hope it helps.
Best Regards
Bala

ECC TO SRM-MDM CATALOG THROUGH SAP PI

We have a scenario where we are sending data from ECC to SRM-MDM Catalog through SAP PI and data is coming from ECC through proxy and sending to SRM u2013MDM catlog through file adapter. In ESR part we have used SAP defined standard service interfaces (CatalogueUpdateNotification as sender interface and MDMInfoRecordDataTransmission as a receiver interface). The mapping used is also standard one.
Now we have got requirement to send the data for vendor mat no, manufacturer field of info records from ECC to SRM-MDM catlog. But we are unable to find out these two fields in standard interfaces/messages. Can anybody guide us how to add these fields in the current data types or is there any other standard interfaces we can use.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Shiv,
Many thanks for your reply.
Since we're not using XI / PI scenario and this is an upgrade from SRM 5.5 to SRM 7, Iu2019m using the same approach that was already used in SRM 5.5 with CCM 2.0.
The idea is that the catalogue and all the records maintained need to be associated to a contract. So, I add the contract ID and the correspondent contract item in the import file, in addition to the supplier name, product ID, price information and so on. I mapped the contract ID with the field contract price.
In relation to the price information fields, as I want it to be visible for any user that accesses the product catalogue, I tried different approaches:
1.Using OCI Price information u2013 amount, currency, price base quantity and price base quantity UoM;
2.Using OCI Price contract u2013 amount, currency, price base quantity and price base quantity UoM;
The first approach didnu2019t work very well, as I was not able to see price information when accessing the catalogue. I could only see it once I transfer the items to the SC. In addition, this approach had one problem. The products were displayed but it was not possible to select the items one by one. To do that I needed to select all the items of the catalogue and after that the detail of the contract ID was displayed in every item, allowing me to choose the items that I want to select to my SC.
The second approach was better as the information was visible when accessing the SC and I was able to select all the items, one by one, as it should be. The main problem of this approach was that Iu2019m getting errors in the SC when the materials have stock u2013 u201CInterface data contains errorsu201D. Or alternatively, if the items didnu2019t have stock, the SC was possible, but when I tried to create a PO from that SC, It simply does not work.
So, can someone help me? Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Andreia

SRM-MDM Catalogue Search UI - Qualified table search

Hi,
We are having the following situation:
- We have a catalogue of articles
- We have to tie an article to a location, in addition to a location-specific parameter.
- Exampe:
Article A is tied to location A, parameter A
Article B is tied to location B, parameter B
Article C is tied to location A, parameter B
- The way to solve this in MDM is to use the qualified table. I have created one where:
Location = non-qualifier
parameter = qualifier
I want to make this searchable in the SRM-MDM search UI.
The user should be able to choose one Location, and then one parameter tied to that Location, to view relevant articles.
This is no problem using SAP Portal with MDM. But how can we realise this using SRM-MDM search UI?
I have tried, but can only get a drop down or text search on the non-qualifier field.
Can anyone please help? Is this even possible?
KR;
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
Is there any possibilities to configure/add code to the search UI, or is this completely locked for customization/altering through code? Unfortunately, I feel it is standard and we can not customize it.
There is no issue in your design but if your location as well as parameter has certain(limited) number of values only. You can create location field in MDM Main table which is lookup to Locations Flat table and similarly for Parameter field lookup to Parameters table rather than using Qualified table. As you can set lookup/Text field search only, so you can set these two fields in your search criteria. where first you search for Location say US it will search records with US location and when you further give search according to parameter it will further filter(navigate) records based on both Location and parameter, just a thought came which i feel to share with you, try it if it helps you.

SRM MDM Catalogue 3.0 Slave in unknown status

Hi All,
PLease could someone guide me here, I have created a SRM MDM master and slave configuration. the server was restarted and now the Slave repository has a black line through the top and you are unable to syncronize, normalize or perform any functions on the slave.
Kind Regards
Grant.

Hi All,
I got the official word back from SAP there is no apparent way to correct the repository, the official answer can be found in th e MDM console reference guide Release: MDM 7.1 SP07 May 12, 2011, under the section BROKEN MASTER/SLAVE REPOSITORIES, to sum it up you need to unload the master repository then normalize it unmount the slave and recreated a new slave from the master.

Quantity tab is non-editable under ITEM VIEW screen in SRM- MDM Catalogue

HI,
Implementation of SRM MDM Catalogue 2.0 SP04 (5.5.64.82) .Need inputs on SRM MDM Catalogue>shooping cart view >ITEM DETAIL screen
Following two tabs "Add to Shopping Cart" or "Add to Shopping List" are not working under "Item View" screen when user trying to add items by using these two tabs. Some "java.lang.NullPointerException" error is populating when user clicks on any of these two tabs. Detailed screen shot attached for your understanding
Also, "Quantity" tab is disabled and seen as non editable field - (which is greyed out) - we can not place any value into it.
But the "Add to Shopping Cart" or "Add to Shopping List" tabs are working fine under other screens views like "context view" & "List view" .
Seems like it is a product Bug
Need your valuable inputs at earliest as our go-live date is approaching very near
Thanks & Rgds/Pawan

Calling a SharePoint Web Service from SAP??

Hi Everyone,
I have been following the below link to call a SharePoint Web Service from SAP.
Consuming Microsoft SharePoint Web Services in SAP using Basic Authentication
But after entering the URL this pops up :
and I enter my SAP username and password, then I get this error:
But I have full SAP authorization.
Please can someone advice or help on this problem.
Thank you.

Hi,
It accepts WSDL files, but only using basic authentification. I had the same problem. Probably you have NTLM authentification. Check note 1441809 - Logon fails when using IIS and NTLM authentication

Hi Khanna,
 1. Should we create DT MT MI and all (OR) not
 Yes U need to create for HTTP site...for RFC U need to import..
2.In Request DT how the message structure wil be to get the list of materials from sap r/3 system as Response(Ex: Fields in the source structure).
 You create your own structres for Request and respoce.. and Map it with RFC..
3.Or the second thing is how to get the list of materials start with some alphabate.
 I think it will come with acending order....

I cannot log onto the App Store, the page appears when I call it from the dock or the Apple menu and I can call the log-in box from the menu bar, but on signing in the spinning icon just keeps spinning,(not the beachball). Using 10.6.7 and up-to-date on all software. Any suggestions?

Could be a third party app preventing you from being able to login.
Mac App Store: Sign in sheet does not appear, or does not accept typed text
If it's not a third party issue, follow the instructions here.
Quit the MAS if it's open.
Open a Finder window. Select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left then open the Library folder then the Caches folder.
Move the com.apple.appstore and the com.apple.storeagent files from the Caches folder to the Trash
From the same Library folder open the Preferences folder.
Move these files Preferences folder to the Trash: com.apple.appstore.plist and com.apple.storeagent.plist
Same Library folder open the Cookies folder. Move the com.apple.appstore.plist file from the Cookies folder to the Trash.
Relaunch the MAS.

How to call the grand parent constructor from the child ??

Hi All,
I am having 3 classes.
Class A.
Class B extends Class A.
Class C extends Class A
i need to call the constructor of ClassA from Class C. how to call ??
Thanks,
J.Kathir

Each class will implicitly call the parent default constructor if you do not call it in the code ie
super();However you can call any of the parent constructors ie
class Parent {
    int value;
    Parent(int v) {
        value = v;
    public void display() {
        System.out.println(value);
class Child extends Parent {
    Child(int v) {
        super(v);
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Child c = new Child(10);
        c.display();
}

More than 2 dropdown boxes in the UI Configuration/SRM-MDM Catalogue Search

Hi! We know that there is a limit to the number of drop-down boxes we can define in SRM-MDM UI configuration. However, we really have a need for that as there is no variant configuration in SRM-MDM. In this case, we want to allow user to select the colour (dropdown box) followed by size (dropdown box) in order to get the right items (e.g. shirt) to appear. Because we also need to have another field to be drop-down, we cannot do so due to the limitation.
Has anyone found a solution around this?
Cheers!
