Configuring an online shop / payment system with Muse / BC

I am trying to configure an online shop and integrate it with a Muse site.
I am going to try and keep this short and to the point. The client sells therapy, hour slots of either Acupuncture, Chiropractor, Holistic medicine etc, they want the following system on their site.
Customers browse available therapies on a website > They select date >  they select a time slot > they pay for a booking.
At first I looked at the events booking system with BC, but this didn’t work, I couldn’t work out how to configure the events booking module to have time slots. Plus a Calendar / date picker is useless as the individual therapists work very specific hours / days from month to month.
There is third party time slot booking software, but it’s very price, and only a few offer free trial (I need to see how it will integrate with a Muse site first).
Then I though SHOPPING CART!!! For instance the variables I have can easily be interchanged, for size / colour etc.
For example:
CATALOG: List of various therapies
PRODUCT: Acupuncture (for example)
ATTRIBUTE: February 28th (example)
OPTION: Drop down time slots available - 9am - 10am
PAYMENT!
I tried to configure this with BC at first (I’ve never used it) and at first I found it a little complex. Then I found Ecwid, they are brilliant, you sign up for a free account, you build the shop online then Ecwid generates the code and you simply copy and embed it within Muse. Its beautiful. Sadly to be able to use the product variation (different times slots ensuring only one is in stock) you need to upgrade to a Business account, with is quite expensive.
So I have gone back to BC. I am slowly making progress, setting up the shop and integrating it with Muse, but I’m new to BC and my progress is slow. As much as I see the value and validity in learning BC I am faced with derogatory comments on the BC forum. I’ll be honest I have tried to ask advice a couple of times with BC or with reference to it, and it’s as if as soon you mention you use MUSE it is assumed you must be an idiot. One comment referred to us as the “Muse generation - point and click”. I am learning BC, I’ve been on it two weeks, I am getting there, but the client is paying peanuts for this site (I should have re-negotiated) and MOST IMPORTANTLY I am also beginning to think that the clients are going to struggle using the BC interface to populate their product list.
To summise:
I need an online ‘plug and play’ shopping cart for a Muse website, that my client can understand? They will be frightened by BC
Can anyone recommend a solution that can be configured as above?
BTW: Just becuase I work with Muse, I'm still allowed to play with the Big boys toys ;-)

Hi Irene,
I did and I didn't. I gave up on BC as I really didn't think the client would be able to cope with the administration of it. But I did find a great plug in system called Booking Bug. You do have to pay a subscription for it (but there is a free trial), but it's a simple product, effective too. You build it online, it generates the html code for you and you jsut insert it in the relevant position on the relevant page.
I do believe that as a designer who enjoys working with Muse, it's worth getting to know Business Catalyst inside out. Muse lacks some powerful tools that some of the other systems (Wordpress etc) seem to benefit from. However it's all there in BC, it's just going to take me sometime to get to know it.
But I can recommend Booking Bug.

  • Configuring of a new source system in BW

    Hi Experts
    We have to set up a BW system,  which will have 2 source systems( ECC)  clients 550 and 590 of the same ECC ( ECC QUALITY). One client is already there and we have to configure another client of source system with the sane BW Client 350. I understand that the dataflow is partly different (e.g transfer rules and datasources are source system dependent). My question are
    1.     How we can configure a Source System on BW.
    2.     What changes if any I have to make in the existing system (BW)
    3.     What will happens to the Existing Data-sources ( Do I have to replicate each and every data-source of the existing ECC clients to New ECC client.)
    4.     Do I have to create New transfer and update rule for the new client
    Any other point Pl. advice.
    Thanks in advance.
    Dinesh Sharma

    You can more than one source system to onw BW client.
    You have to use source system compounding to differentiate between characterstics values if you are loading to the same object. Otherwise you need to use separate characterstics for ex : Yxxxx object for one source system and Zxxxx object for another.
    Also the dataload timing should be setup properly. Otherwise it may leads to object locks.

  • Inspection characteristics transfer to Shop floor system

    Hi,
    We are using a third party shop floor system with terminals in each workcenter/stations in Production line. How do we transfer the Production order inspection characteristics to these terminals, do the results recording at the terminals and send the results back to SAP inspection lots.
    Thanks
    Thomas

    This capability is standard SAP via PP-PI and PI sheets.  You have several options.  This does require software on the process control side to 'talk' with SAP but SAP provides the info to write the needed programs.  Larger vendors of process control software will probably already have the necessary programs available for you.  The "talking" is done via process control instructions which follows specific standards to pass messages between equipment.  SAP can produce and receive  the necessary messages.
    You can transfer data to batch characteristics from third party shop control software via process messages.  This is standard SAP. See the link below.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/d8/f85c40e89811d195f6080009c17b92/content.htm
    You can also transfer characteristic data between inspection lots and your process control systems
    http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/Print46c/en/data/pdf/PPPIPCS/PPPIPCS.pdf
    (see page 27 for the inspection data messages, category PI-QMSMR)
    The link above should give you a basic understanding of the possibilities.  You should contact the vendor of your process control software.  Many of the larger vendors probably have done the SAP integration already and can probably refer you to a consultant or in house person that has this specific experience and can help you get this going.  Also contact SAP and ask about their approved vendors that have certified interfaces to work with SAP.

  • Process flow with configuration for online payment of vendors

    Dear friends,
    I need the process flow with configuration for online payment to vendors through rtgs or neft.
    Please help me in this regard. One of my client wants to implement online payment process instead of cheque payment.
    thanks and regards
    satya

    1) Payments are initiated at the corporate SAP System using APP and converted into IDOC
    Could you please tell me the steps in converting the app into idoc.
    There are standard Idoc used for the same , for APP it would be PAYEXT, You need to use this Idoc type.
    You define the EDI payment method and assign the program in FBZP (RFFOEDI1)which would created payment medium.
    i believe in the app we will create the proposal and run the payment run, after payment proposal created what are the config steps involved in createing the payment run. for example for checque payment we will maintian variant for cheque printing.
    The payment run config is done in FBZP, which would include definf check PM and assigning house bank sub gl etc.
    2) PI at Client End receives the input through IDOC for the payments
    Pl means? and how the client will recieve this idoc what is the set up has to be made?
    PI(Process Integration) middleware which will send bank files from sap to bank and vice versa.
    3) Bank PI receives the payment and converts the same RTGS/NEFT format
    4) Payment Data is received at the Bank RTGS/ NEFT server for further processing
    how the payment data will be recieved by bank what is the process?
    This is again via PI or any thoird party tool which will send bank files to sap as Idoc, The idoc message type is FINSTA.
    or this in SAP you will have to configure the following:
    *House bank with partner profile
    *Outbound parameters                      what is meant by outbound paramenters and how to create and where to maintian
    *Inbound parameters                          what is meant by inbound paramenters and how to create and where to maintian
    The outbound and Inbounmd idoc's are the one which we send(PAYEXT) and rec from bank(FINSTA).  you create partner profile in WE20 and create partner profile once you create you assign outbound and inbound message types in there.
    *EDI Compatible payment methods        how to know about the compaitable payment methods
    Please goto house bank FI12 and you will see this in there, assign the PM used.
    *APP config                                        i know the app config for cheque payment, for this scenairo any additional settings?
    It would be pretty much same, you will have to define the PM used and Payment medium and remaining configuration in FBZP.
    *Bank details in Vendor :
    You will have to maintain the bank details of the vendor in vendor master.

  • Will apple pay work with the iphone 5s.? Atleast the online payment system can work fine with touch ID.. Apple should make a note of this.

    Apple pay is great feature introduced with the new iphone's. But for 5s users who are not gonna upgrade this year, apple is a requirement. Sure they can use it via apple watch. But apple pay with the online payment system can be used via the touch id, i feel.. Apple should make a note of this and enable it for users.

    Probably not, as the 5s doesn't have NFC capability.

  • IPayment with 3rd Party payment system

    2. Do I need to create any configuration servlet to talk with 3rd party server or is there any other way?
    3. At which point I should call the web services provided by 3rd party?
    4. How to create request as per the web service requirements and how to solve the response provided by web services?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    If your third party system talks with Payment Tech, Is it possible for you to confiure payment Tech directly with iPayment. As you know that oracle provides all the necessary confguration and servelt. Its pretty striagt forward and simple.
    Find out whether you can use payment tech directly, that should solve most of your issues. If you need more information, let me know

  • Replace table codes with useLi in BC module template online Shop Layouts

    I am having a problem in BC module template > online Shop Layouts:
    Trying to get rid of Table Codes that inserted by BC system with List or possible Div
    Contact with Adobe BC tech support, they suggest use this useLi tag in my online Shop Layouts. After I implement the codes below, and it doesn't work. The table code is still there on the front page:Here is the code that I implement in the module template: {tag_productlist, useLi (true)}
    Below is the front page codes, you can see the table is inserted by BC system:
    <table class="productTable productSmall"><tbody><tr><td id="catProdTd_9074914" class="productItem">
    </td><td class="productItem"></td><td class="productItem"></td><td class="productItem"></td></tr></tbody></table>
    How could I remove the table that insert by BC System? Please help!!

    Hi there,
    You need to look at the tag information properly,
    http://docs.businesscatalyst.com/dev-assets/reference#!/tag-reference/e-commerce/online-sh op-overall-layout.html
    You will see it has a lot more components to it, you need to have the commas correctly, if you do not want to specify one of the components you just leave it blank.
    EG - {tag_productlist,3,,24,Alphabetical,true,true}

    Hello Prasad,
    <b>Connection with an External Payroll System</b>
    Payroll Outsourcing functionality allows you to compile master data or payroll data in the SAP system to submit to a third-party service provider in an electronic format. The Outsourcing solution available in the United States and Canada provides a generic interface which writes data into an IDoc (Intermediate Document) for transport to a third-party system. In order to transport data into and out of the SAP system, you must set up a logical system, partner definition, and outsourcing ports.
    If you have built your own payroll interface, using the Interface Toolbox, for example, you can use the Import section of this scenario. The Export section applies only to the transport of IDocs.
    For more information regarding outsourcing, refer to the SAP Library, Human Resources  -> PY Payroll  -> PY-US United States Payroll or PY-CA Canada Payroll  -> Outsourcing.

  • Detall with the configuration in cluster of my system PI

    Hello people
    We have  installed PI in cluster of microsoft 2003 and one application server with  this configuration, sometimes presents  problem with interfaces with status http_status_not_ok and with the load of the interfaces is slow.
    We tested a system with cofiguration standalone and the performance is better and the errors is not presented.
    We have thought change the configuration of my system PI to standalone and  having two servers PI productive with balanced of load.
    The two servers  will have all interfaces, but not all active, in case of failure of server , in the other server is activated the interfaces.
    We investigated with other companies that have a PI and the comment is that your PI is standalone.
    I hope your comments.

  • How to configure R/3 System with Load Balancing?

    Hello,
    I've created a Web DynPro Application and I would like to case an iView on  it. According to SAP tutorials I first need to configure an R/3 System with Load Balancing.
    My problem is how to configure the "WAS Host Name".
    According to the tutorial:
    WAS Host Name = <host>.<domain>:port (this corresponds to the Web Dynpro server location and the port on which it is running eg. PXYZ.wdf.sap.corp:50000.)
    I am using NW 04 and my portal is running on this address:
    http://ep6sp9test:50000/irj/portal
    When I set the WAS Host Name to ep6sp9test:50000 the Test connection fails (I have privildges and created an alias and User mapping). What should I put at this field then?

    Hi
    I think you have to specify the HTTP port og the WAS running the R/3 system. The 50000 port is the HTTP port of your portal - not the R/3 system.  You can see the HTTP port of the R/3 system using transactioncode SMICM - services in the R/3 system.

  • STMS Configuration - Change Virtual System with Real System

    Dear all,
    My system, if I go in the transaction STMS in DEV system, was configureted in the following way:
    DEV => QA => PROD (Virtual System)
    Now, I want to change the PROD Virtual System in PROD Real System.
    How Can procede?
    Can you explain step-by-step the process?
    Because the system was configureted from other people, and I'm new to using the STMS.
    Thanks in advanced for your help.
    Best Regards,
    Giulio

    Hi,
    After the planned system is physically installed it is time to replace the Virtual System with the realized system.
    The procedure for the same is as under:
    1) Delete the Virtual System from the transport domain
    . Login into Transport Domain system client 000
    · Using STMS got to Overview=> Systems
    · Chose SAP Virtual System=> Delete (confirm)
    · Distribute configuration change.
    As soon as the configuration change is distributed, the virtual system is deleted. The import queue for this system in TMS disappears but it is available as import buffer at the operating systems level.
    Now add the new (physical system) to the transport domain:
    If STMS is configured as standalone system then first delete STMS configuration on PRD system
    login into PRD system client 000. (delete STMS configuration if present.)
    run stms -> it's ask for set up STMS -> click on other configurition (F6)
    Target Host -> host name of domain controller ( host name of transport domain system)
    System number -> Instance number of domain controller ( instance number of transport domain system)
    Now,
    Go to the Transport Domain Controller and accept the system. (As the import buffer is available at the    operating system level, no change requests will be lost)
    Distribute the configuration changes.

    kaushal
