Reg: cannot access fields from field catalog in kea6 transaction

hi experts,
I am suppose to create a co-pa report . i dont find the required fields in the f4 help for the elements to be inserted in the report. i am able to see the fields in the transaction kea6 but cannot access them ...
kindly help out
points will be rewarded

Thanks for your quick reply,
I already have tested that option, and I try it again, but no success too.
I don't understand the error, because the connection between the sql server 2005 and business view manager it's ok, so I can see the content of each selected field on BVM, and I can see the fields in the repository on crystal reports server client, but it say's in the preview:
failure logon
Details: cannot find DSN in connection string
can it be a problem with licenses? I don't think so, because I have samples that the database is loaded from the web and they work fine, is only this abnormal situation.
I tried to search and they said this:
The data connection component is where the user establishes a connection to the data source. The setting up of the connection component is similar to the setting up of a connection in Crystal Reports and, in a lot of cases, uses the same drivers and dialog boxes. The user can enter in a username and password. This is the username that will authenticate against the data source and the username and password are then stored in the repository.
this data connection is defined in the business view manager, and I put that user and pass but I always get the same error!
Have anyone the same problem? or a new ideia? =)
Thanks

Supplier catalogs integration with Purchase Requisiton (ME51N) transaction

Hi MM Gurus,
I was looking to integrate supplier catalogs (punch out) to ME51N transaction in ECC-EHP4. I see config node in SPRO under MM->Purchasing->Environment Data->Web Services: ID and Description.
- I created catalog ID but Catalog button is not showing up in ME51N for catalog selection. What set up is required?
- How can we restrict access to catalogs, is there any set up to assign to plants or assign to doc type / users etc?
Please share, if you have any experience with it?
I appreciate your input.
Thanks,
Chandra

Hi,
you don't need SRM for using a catalog in MM transactions ME51n, ME21n. You have to consider that you can use only one catalog. If you want to use more then one catalog you should use SRM. That's the design.
Customizing:
-> Purchasing
-> Environment Data
-> Web Services: ID and Description
you can find more detailed information about the settings in Customizing of Supplier Relationship Management (-> SRM Server -> Master Data -> Define External Web Services )
You can maintain more than one WEB Services, but you have to set the 'Default Indicator' for one of them, otherwise you will not get any Catalog to be displayed in ME51n/ME21n.

SRM MDM Catalog - SRM OCI mapping relevant for Contract Catalogs

Hi,
According to the scenario we would like to implement, the contract items are distibuted to a catalog and later on they are recalled within other contracts. In this case to do OCI mapping in SRM (customizing activity?) is still relevant? Is this activity necessary for all catalogs internal or external?
Is this what is enabling to dispaly the catalog within SRM transaction like Process Contracts for all type of catalogs?
Thank you in advance,
Edited by: Gaia K. on Nov 18, 2008 6:16 PM

Hi,
Thanks for your input,
I did unmapping between OCI fields and MDM fields at OCI Mapping and but i have selected unmapped fields at all Views.
Now when i login and checked at my catalog side, i can able to see the data for that fields, which i have unmapped at OCI Mapping.
My question is :
1) Why this fields are getting values , when i Unmapped at OCI mapping Level?
2) If this fields are getting values at catalog irrespective of mapping/unmapping at OCI Mapping level, then what is the actual use of OCI mapping?
3) where exactly adding of Custom fields at OCI side is helpful?
Your solution will be rewarded in points
Thanks

How to attach a custom transaction to a user menu

Hi all,
I need some help on how to attach a transaction code to a user menu.
I've checked the forum but I could not find the exact instructions on how to do it.
This is how the user menu should look like:
User menu for Ricky Orea
'->Manager Catalog Content
'--->Standard transaction
'--->Standard transaction
'--->(insert my transaction here)
Appreciate the help. Useful answer will be rewarded.
Thanks,
Ricky

Hi
The user menu is the set of menu of all roles of user, so you should check the roles of the user and update one of menu of user roles.
You can do it by transactions PFGC, but if you change a role you'll change the menu of all users have that role.
This operation usually is made by the administrators of system.

The catalog that you have selected is currently unavailable

Hi,
I am trying to display product catalog at sales transaction and I have made the following settings:
1. Created product catalog and indexed to TREX server--I can see the indexes at txn TREXADM and program TREX_RFC_AE_EXAMPLE
2. http://<hostname>:<port>/shopadmin/admin/xcm/init.do---created my own app conf.
3. http://<hostname>:<port>/shopadmin/shopadmin/init.do---created my web shop with the previously created product catalog
When I try to display the catalog; "The catalog that you have selected is currently unavailable" error is displayed.
I have double checked my settings according note #980678.
Checked the Visual Admin settings as follows:
"Go to Cluster->Services->TREX Service and check the entry "nameserver.address". It should have "tcpip://<trex host name>:<name server port>. ex tcpip://mytrexserver:30201."
Does anyone has faced an issue like this?
Thanks..

Hi there,
Are you using staging for the product catalog? If so then you need to activate the index.
Is the catalog and variant active also?
Otherwise check your xcm settings for the web app (b2b or b2c) so its set up for the right IMS settings.
Cheers
Andrew

Create contract based on punch-out catalog

Dear Experts,
My client wants to create a contract per vendor hosted (punch-out) catalog. Is this posible for this type of catalog?
What is best practice to:
1) Control spend on punch out catalog (besides the SHC approval)?
2) Control that the supplier does not increase the price on the items
Thanks

Hi,
Purchaser can call catalog from contract transaction and create a contract with supplier parts number.
Is this the function you are looking for ?

Master Catalog is locked!

Need you help!
Our master catalog is locked and I'm trying to unlock it. As I read some of the postings in this thread, I checked /CCM/D_CTLG_REG and I see two versions of our master catalog. However, both versions are inactive (there's no x next to either one).
To unlock or delete inactive catalogs, there's /CCM/CLEANUP_CATALOG. Since our master catalog is inactive for both versions, if I delete 'inactive' version, would that delete both of them? How do I set one of these to active and delete the inactive one?
Please help.
SN

Hi
Which CCM version are you using ?
We faced fimilar issue ... SAP has suggested this long back ->
The problem is as a result of a system restart which occured while a
publication job was in process. The shutdown cancelled the job for
program /CCM/PE_START_REG_PUBLICATION but did not cancel or clean up
the corresponding table entries which are causing the error you now
encounter
Go to table /ccm/d_pub_st
Here you will see one entry in status 'R' (Running) this needs to be
changed to status 'E' (Published with errors)
Then Use report again /ccm/cleanup_catalog
Related Help links ->
To remove the locks, use SE38 transaction and type program name as /CCM/CLEANUP_CATALOG to unlock or delete catalogues. Please select the correct option !
Re: CCM Mater catalog is locked
Re: /CCM/CLEANUP_CATALOG won't unlock the catalog
Re: CCM Related
Related SAP OSS Notes ->
Note 965357 - /CCM/CLEANUP_MAPPING: Long runtimes Note 773975 - TIME_OUT short dump when publishing very large catalogs
Note 909907 - Improved performance of update overview (CCM20)
Please see the related links which deal with the same issue, and will definitely answer your query ->
Unlock catalog
Go to transaction SE38 and execute program /CCM/CLEANUP_CATALOG. Information about the catalog status is held in table /CCM/D_CTLG_REQ.
If your catalog is locked by UI (i.e. publishing) try the report /CCM/CLEANUP_UPDATE_STATUS.
CCM Mater catalog is locked
Re: /CCM/CLEANUP_CATALOG won't unlock the catalog
Do let me know incase you still have any queries.

Call a external vendor catalog - OCI In ECC using web dynpro

Hello Everyone,
We have a requirement to call a OCI External Catalog in ME51n Transaction in ECC, that is working fine.
Now we need to create a Web dynpro ABAP Application which performs the Task of ME51n Transaction along with OCI Integration.
So far i have create a small Web dynpro ABAP application to check does OCI Catalog can be integrated in ECC using web dynpro ABAP.
My Screen Consit of a single Button UI, on click of the button i am calling the External Catalog, from the catalog i select all the materials and click on submit finally we need to bring all the selected materials to get displayed ina table.
Half of the Development is done i.e i am able to call the catalog but not able to receive the selected materials.
following are the details-
1. I check in SRM first how the Ctalogs are been called, i found 2 Services responsible for the same in SICF transaction -
Inbound HLDR and Outbound HLDR which uses handler class as SAPSRM_CL_CH_WD_INBOUND_HDLR and SAPSRM_CL_CH_WD_OUTBOUND_HDL, so i copied the same classes into ECC and created the same SICF Service.
Contn. in next post

2.In my Web Dynpro ABAP application i have a Inbound plug in my window in the handler method of the inbound plug i fill a table lt_parameters of TYPE tihttpnvp, it has 2 columns name and value
In this table i fill following entries-
Name-CATALOG_URL
Value-https://XXXXXXXX.com/invoke/BVProcess.SAPOCI/processCatalogRequest
Name-USERNAME
Value-XXXXXXXX
Name-PASSWORD
Value-XXXXXXXX
NAME = 'HOOK_URL'.
VALUE = 'http:/XXXXX.hostederp.local:8000/sap/ZOTC_CAT/Zinbound_hdlr'."?TARGET_URL= {Appdress of the WDA Apllication}
NAME = 'OCI_VERSION'.
VALUE = '4.0'.
NAME = 'OPI_VERSION'.
VALUE = '1.0'.
NAME = 'returntarget'.
VALUE = _top
also in this inbound plug handler method i fill a lv_url variable of type string with-
lv_url = 'http://XXXXXX.hostederp.local:8000/sap/ZOTC_CAT/Zoutbound_hdlr?sap-client=100&sap-language=E'.
3. finally from the handler method of the inbound plug i call a Suspend plug p[assing the above two variables i.e
lt_parameters and lv_url.
wd_this->fire_zw_suspend_plg( url = lv_url i_parameter_tab = lt_parameters ).
4. Using above i cam able to call the catalog and select the materials.
5. Now if i Finally clcik on submit on the catalog it should return the materials to the WDA Application.
For WDA Application to accept the Materials i have created a resume plug in which i am using -
wdr_task=>server->request->get_form_fields( CHANGING fields = lt_fields ). to get all the selected materials into lt_fields.
6. But unfortunately i am unable to receive the selected materials in lt_fields.
I think i am missing something in Hook URL or some other parameter.
Please help, ur comments and suggestions are welcome.

Akash Rana

Interface for Procurement Using Catalogs (OCI)

Hello all,
I like to have a lot of explications for this cutomizing for a flow PM.I would like call a catalog if I create order PM never pass to EBP sytem.
If I finish this customizing Interface for Procurement Using Catalogs (OCI) in R/3 system who R/3 taking all informations for a catalog when a order PM has been created.
There is a button to use a catalog if a transaction IW31 or IW32 has been executed or not?
This version SAP is ECC5.
Thanks for your response.

Hi Mady,
here are high level steps for PM/OCI:
- SPRO: Maintenance and Service Orders -> Interface for Procurement Using Catalogs (OCI) --> Define Catalogs
- SPRO: Maintenance and Service Orders -> Interface for Procurement Using Catalogs (OCI) --> Assign Catalog to Order Type
As of SAP ECC 5.00, PLM Extension (EA_PLM 500), you can call up an external catalog in a maintenance order or service order, a maintenance task list or a network, and copy services from this catalog into the order or task list or network.
You also now have the option of storing multiple catalogs for each of the following criteria:
- Order type and planning plant
- Task list category and plant
- Network type and plant
If all this customizing is OK, a little "Catalog" button will appear in maintenance or service order transaction.

Sort the products in transaction COMM_PCAT_ADM

Hi All,
We are using catalog views in transaction COMM_PCAT_ADM, but it's difficult
for user to tick/choose the product id, cause of such many of products and
not sorted.
Can someone tell me how to sort the product id in product catalog views ?
or is there any function to search product id ?
Your help is very appreciated.
Thank you in advanced.
Jaya

Hi Jaya,
The products in VIEWS are displyed as per the products assigned in the Catalog Areas or Sub-catalog area.
The sequence in which the products are displayed is as per the products assigned in the Catalog Areas or Sub-catalog area.
1.Unfortunately as a STANDARD there is no provision to search the product/s in the VIEW section in comm_pcat_adm
2. Sorting is also not possible in the views section. You need to develop a custom program to fetch all the products in VIEWS to an excel file and after SORTING upload the same file.
Hope this will help
