Catalog Call Structure Thumbnail

Hello all. Years ago, I added thumbnails of company logos to catalog call links in the shopping wizard. This was probably SRM 3.0 or so...I'm pretty sure I used "Path for Symbol for Service" in the Define External Web Services field. Now, with webdynpro, the documentation isn't changed at all. I think this is pointing to a folder from the old ITS. They wouldn't just let functionality just drop out like that would they? Anybody know how this might be easily done today? (SRM 7.0)

Hi Galen,
I was not aware of this functionality, however, in most cases, the requirement for company logos is in the catalog application so it may be that with the introduction of WD UI this was missed.

Jason

Product catalog call structure config

For each catalog there is a call structure defined in SAP SRM , My question is i have a Product catalog created in system with Logical system as XYZ SAPR/3 ( this is under subscreen techinical settings) ... after some days some budy changed it with different sap logical system how to track the change in call structure technical setting parameter. Is there any standard report to track the changes in product catalog call structure config.

Hi
A change to the logical system in catalog call structure would have to have an associated change request in the TMS, perhaps you can check there with the transport admin as to who changed the BBP_WS_VC cluster.

External Catalog Call Structures

We are on SRM 4.0 and integrated ITS. We are using the standard call structure for external catalogs which opens in a new window. However, this is causing grief with our users because they tend to stay in the catalogs too long and eventually timeout of SRM. Our current timeout is set to 30 minutes. Therefore, when they go to the catalogs, SRM sits idle. When they checkout of the catalog to bring the items over into SRM, they will get a timeout message.
I would like to have the catalog open in the same window as SRM. I understand this is done through integrated call structure.
However, when I select my items from the catalog and check out, I'm not brought back into my shopping cart. Another window opens with the look of external ITS.
Is there something I need to do with the call structure so that the items are added back to my shopping cart?
Are there other options so that users do not timeout of SRM? If SRM is sitting idle, can a message popup letting the user know their session will timeout soon unless they check out of the catalogs?

SRM-MDM Dynamic catalog call structure and implicit search criteria

Hi experts,
We need to define the catalog call criteria for the SRM-MDM.
Our client requires content visualitzation restrictions but there is not any logic indentified to determine the records that must be viewed for every user.
Now, in their Non-SAP catalog, they are using users lists to which they assign the catalog records.
There are more than 150 users lists and is posible too to assign some catalog records to only 1 or 2 users, by user id.
We want to reproduce this scenario in SRM-MDM.
We are analysing two alternatives:
First alternative: badi BBP_CAT_CALL_ENRICH implementation for mask dynamic determination and custom z.
We've though in creating one mask for every user list.
Then, in SRM create a custom table with the userid and the user list id (mask equivalent). A user can belong to more than one user list.
Finally implement the BBP_CAT_CALL_ENRICH, searching in the z table the users id and obtaining the specific masks for this users and pass these masks as catalog call parameters dynamicly.
Is posible to use the BBP_CAT_CALL_ENRICH badi to pass dynamic parameters?
(in this case, maybe we could use a new org.est. attibute to assign user id and mask, instead of the custom table).
Second aternative: implicit search criteria based on a new org. est. atribute for mask
Is posible to create new implicit search criteria for org. est. atributes?
We could assign to every user the masks in the org. est. and then, create a new parameter which could look for the mask value in the org.est.
Thanks in advance

Hi Silvia,
I am not sure of the answer to the second part of the query but as for the usage of the BBP_CAT_CALL_ENRICH catalog in combination with various masks for the users to access catalog subsets, this should work quite well, best to try it out in a DEV environment and see how it goes.

Jason

SRM5.0 Catalog Std. Call Structure - Disable Browser Back Button

Hi colleagues,
we're on SRM5.0 and have the catalog configured as "Standard Call Structure", i.e. it is displayed in a new browser window.
Is there away to disable the browser back navigation functionality, i.e. open the window without address bar and back navigation buttons?
There doesn't seem to be anything in SPRO in order to control this.
Thanks, Ulli

Hi
I think it is a settings of browser
for eg
internet explorer -> view -> tool bars -> standard tool bar (activate / inactivate )
so you can not see backe button.

OCI Punchout - Standard Call Structure - Creates new session each request

Hello all,
I am having trouble with a customer attempting to do OCI Punchout with the Standard Call Structure. I have other customers successfully punching out in this same system. Here is a breakdown of what is happening. Our catalog is a combination of classic ASP with VB6 Com objects
1 - The user POSTs their call structure to our /ocilogin.asp page and we set a session variable after successfully log in
2 - The user is then redirected to our /MainFrameLoad.asp page which houses our catalog.
3 - The problem occurs here because the Session_OnStart method in the global.asa file is called again, which should not happen because session has already been established. The logic in this method checks for the session variable created in /ocilogin.asp but it does not exist.
4 - It looks for a username/password via querystring and does another login, which then redirects them again to /MainFrameLoad.asp and the infinite loop begins.
I'm convinced that their system is creating new unique requests each time which is causing the session variable to disappear. I've tested their ability to accept cookies, which would also effect session variables, but that seems to be fine on their end.
My question is how can I tell if their system is properly handling cookies/requests? I have plenty of example of people punching out with the exact same call structure, but its just their system that seems to have the issue.

Hi,
SRM 7.0 catalog integration differs from previous releases, the reliance on OCI 4.0 compliance is much stricter, please see the note [1287412 |https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1287412]for more details on the required settings in the SRM system, perhaps let your customer also know about this note.

Call Structure in SRM

Hi Friends,
Can anyone tell me, where are the settings for the Call structure and its importance.
Incase I have Product category which is there with a some Third party search engine.
when we choose a Product categorypfrom that search enginee then Product is transferred from that search enginee to our SRM system by poping up an additional window, where in allowing us to change the basic data ,cost assignment , etc.and then when we click on Order It gets saved and SHC is created.
So now I dont want that additional window to be called up when I transfer the product category from that third party search enginee to my Shopping basket.
where exactly I need to do the settings.can anyone help me?
Regards,
Sairam

Hi,
The call to web services is defined here:

I am not getting the field catalog...

Hi
That fm doesn't work if the internal table is defined using TYPE, but u need to use LIKE:
DATA: BEGIN lt_vbak OCCURS 0.
            CBOX(1) TYPE C.
DATA: INCLUDE STRUCTURE VBAK,
          END OF IT_VBAK.
DATA: GT_REPORT TYPE SY-REPID.
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE'

       i_program_name              = GT_REPORT
       i_internal_tabname          = 'LT_VBAK'
       i_include_name               = GT_REPORT
    CHANGING
      ct_fieldcat                  = g_fieldcat_tab[]
     EXCEPTIONS

       program_error                = 2
       OTHERS                       = 3
If you want to use the TYPES defination, u can do in this way:
TYPES: BEGIN OF tt_vbak,
                cbox TYPE c.
                INCLUDE STRUCTURE vbak.
TYPES: END OF tt_vbak.

SRM 7.0 catalog call, method launch_catalog

Hi,
can anyone tell me, how to call a catalog in web dynpro for Abap? I want to call al catalog similar to SRM 7.0.
In SRM 7.0 the class /SAPSRM/CL_CH_WD_NAVI_SERV and the method LAUNCH_CATALOG is used to call a catalog.
Does anyone have an example how to use this class/methode, especially for HOOK_URL.
The catalog I want to call is defined in the IMG under "Web-Services: ID and Description".
Best regards,
Elke

Hi Jason,
I am also facing the same concern. I have done all the below configurations
1.) As per the SAP note 1643978, I have configured the Launch catalog in LPD_CUST
2.) And the group access has also been assigned to the user as per the above note
3.) In reference to the folder permissions on portal content, the access has been given according to the note - 1260119
After doing all the changes, the external punch out catalog links are still dead. Could you please advise if there is any other activity which needs to be performed. Thanks in advance for your help.
Best Regards,

Calling structure in dll

I am trying to call a dll that contains a nested structure. I am not a c-programmer so therefore I
would lik to use the call library function but I do not know how to handle the union structure shown below??
Function Name:
cnc_rdparam
Declaration:
FWLIBAPI short WINAPI cnc_rdparam(unsigned short FlibHndl,short number,short axis,short length,IODBPSD *param);
typedef struct iodbpsd {
short datano ; /* data number */
short type ; /* axis number */
union {
char cdata ;/* parameter / setting data */
short idata ;
long ldata ;
char cdatas[MAX_AXIS] ;
short idatas[MAX_AXIS] ;
long ldatas[MAX_AXIS] ;
} u ;

I'm not sure, but I think that you have to wire the "param" output of "Call library function" to the cluster which consists of
1. datano - I16
2. type - I16
3. the variable with type depending on the type of union - I8 for cdata, 116 for idata, I32 - for ldata, array of I8 for cdatas, array of I16 for idatas, array of I32 for ldatas.
In other words you must know the type of cluster before calling of this function. May be this type depends on values of other parameters.
I think that you have to organize the case structure in your diagram which calls this function and returns the appropriate cluster depending on other parameters.

Additional parameters for catalog call don't work

we are using BADI BBP_CAT_CALL_ENRICH and try to add to parameters to the catalog link. We don't use these parameters in the web service definition, they are only added in the BADI. Do I have to use Parameter "PARAM_BADI" for this? Why do we loose parameters even if they are visible in ct_post_values? We have SRM 5.0

SRM MDM CATALOG

Hello
I am implementing SRM 5.0 with SRM MDM catalog and I have some doubts.
How can I create catalogs and publish it for users in SRM?
The catalogs are created in SRM accessing MDM catlog or only in MDM. ?
Thanks
Nilson

>Hi
>So, If I want to crate create and publish catalos manualy I can use this >webdympro?
.How can access this webdympro?
>Thanks
Man, you really should read my post... you don't "publish" catalogs with MDM. You setup a "repository" and load it. You do this with CONSOLE. With the DATAMANAGER or IMPORTMANAGER you can maintain repository data. The MDM SERVER 5.5 is accessed through a url that you define in your catalog call structure. If you have any more questions, I will help you out.
