How to Show Product Catalog in an Activity transaction

Hello Experts,
Normally a 'Product' or 'Product Hierarchy' can be associated with an 'Activity' Transaction Type.
Our requirement is to associate a 'Product Catalog' with an 'Activity' Transaction Type.
1. Any Inputs ?
2. How can it be done through Object Reference?
Many Thanks for the suggestions !!

  • How we calculate product cost  without taken activity type

    Respected sir,
    pls tell me without taking activity type costing can we calculate product cost? is it possible through Overhead costing to  calculate product cost?
    or if we taken quantity base costing how we calculate each product cost?
    please help me.......
    Than'x
    Dhananjay

    Hi
    Without Activity type you cannot calculate Operation cost. It is not good practice. Why you want to do like this. Please explain.
    I think Over head cost can be calculated without operation cost.

  • How to default "Reason" in a Business Activity transaction

    Hi experts,
    When I create a Business Activity, I am able to default Priority and Goal. When it comes to 'Reason' I am unable to default because there is no direct assignment in Trans type in Customizing header. We can assign only the Subject Profile for the Reason but not the reason code.
    Can anybody give some idea to default the reason code in the Activity document. It's an urgent req. Pl reply ASAP.
    Ranjan

    In customizing in the crm server there is no way of doing it without programming.
    But if you program, you should rather do it with the post processing framework (actions) than with the events: just create an event which is executed automatically (an always-true schedule condition and also an always-true start condition). This is calling then a self-written method which sets the reason via an CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN. The reason code itself then can be passed as a container parameter.
    The benefit of this approach is that the predefinition can be enabled or disabled via customizing per transaction type.

  • Product catalog MDM ISA

    Hi,
    Can any one has idea, how to replicate product catalog directly to url of ISA CRM. i think we can do it by using JAVA API . but could you please tell  me the steps involved involved in it.
    and related to this question if CRM product replication is active at the same time. Is product catalogs from MDM as well as CRM will be placed in ISA.
    thanks,
    sasi

    Hello,
    I wish the answer was simple and I get all the 10 points. But, I have lot more to add than just giving a report program name.
    Usually the CRM E-Commerce accesses the MDM product catalog as an external catalog. It is not customary to export the Catalog content from SRM-MDM to CRM-ISA. Instead the MDM catalog is Web Enabled for use as an external catalog by CRM-ISA. In the SRM system, the report program
    /CCM/PE_START_REG_PUBLICATION
    can be used to publish the catalog. Usually, this is scheduled as a background job to run periodically to publish the catalog.
    The E-Commerce (CRM-ISA) has Open Catalog Interface (OCI) hooks available to do this. But this needs to be configured in the XCM to access such external catalogs.
    Please read the contents in this link for a overview idea of [External Catalog Integration (via OCI)|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm50/helpdata/en/2f/86653fac7ab21ae10000000a114084/content.htm]
    Also, start from [Service Market Place - SRM|http://service.sap.com/srm] and goto SRM-MDM Catalog to know more about the catalog and see the Export process for other possibilities.

  • How may I integrate a database with pictures in Muse (to show a catalog)?

    As you may imagine, yes, this question has a hidden background (the e-commerce), of course. Muse is a gold window to all those designers that see it's possible to create a website without using code easily. But, websites need rich content, that change from time to time. I wouldn't deal right now with e-commerce, let's go step by step.
    I am asking about integrating a database with muse, to show a catalog (for example an inventory of products). Let's imagine I want to show only the products I have (but for the moment) I don't want to sell them.
    So I have an access file, with several fields: Product Name, Quantity, Description, Maker, and the last field is an image field showing a picture of the product.
    I have already this database in access and I can open it in access, modify it, watch it, browse my products, etc.
    Now, what I want is Muse show this database in a certain page, so I would like that Muse read my database file from access, and allow me to show the fields from access in the position I want (in Muse) and that include also the image field.
    I want to add two buttons, left, right, to move backwards or forwards thru the registers of my database.
    May I do that in Muse?
    How?

    You can either use object >insert html or an ifame to show the products page that exists on your shopping (server) end.
    For example , if you are using Business Catalyst then you can create products on BC end and then use products module in Muse page. Once the module is used , it would render the products designed.
    Similarly with third party shops , you can use their html output for Muse page.
    You can view the sample videos :

  • How to attach PDF file to product catalog in e-Commerce ERP

    Hello Experts,
    We are implementing SAP E-Commerce for ERP (ECC 6.0 version)
    On the product catalog, I need to attach a PDF file to the products.
    I have created a document as
    Document Type: DMO
    In this I have created 1 original as:
    Applic: PDF
    Original:  "abc.pdf" (the PDF file has been uploaded to the correct Web Server folder)
    This document has been assigned to the product as u2018Documentsu2019 in the product catalog.
    I replicated the catalog on TREX. However now I am not sure how to acess this document on the e-Commerce Products JSP.
    When I access the product index on TREX, I do  not see any attribute that contains this document Type containing the PDF.
    (The standard LIM / SIM documents are getting attached correctly to the products, I see the relevant images on the JSP)
    I am not sure if I am missing something in attaching  the document?. Please let me know what else is required to be done for this?
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards,
    Roopali

    Hey Roopali,
    Following is the procedure to Attach a multimedia object .
    Hope you are following this especially point number 16.
    1.     Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:
    Transaction code     COMM_PCAT_ADM
    SAP CRM menu     Master Data à Product Catalog à Maintain Product Catalog
    You will have Material Master rather than Product catalog as it is ECC version.
    2.     In the Product Catalog field, enter PRODUCT CATALOG
    3.     In the Catalog Type field, enter Manual and automatic assignment.
    4.     Choose Change.
    5.     Expand Header Data by choosing the Expand data area Button labeled Header Data
    6.     Check that the status is Inactive.
    A yellow light bulb indicates that the status is Active. To set the status to Inactive, click the light bulb and a gray light bulb appears.
    To add new products to your product catalog, you must first deactivate the status on all levels.
    7.     In the Object Name screen area, select your product catalog.
    8.     Choose Expand all.
    9.     Double-click the catalog area to which you want to manually assign your objects.
    10.     Check that all products are set to inactive.
    11.     In the Item list, double-click the product.
    12.     The selected product is shown below in the screen area Item Details.
    13.     Choose the Item Documents tab.
    The tab page Product Documents provides information about which objects are already assigned to a product in the product master. This means that these objects cannot be changed in the product catalog. They can only be changed in the product master.
    14.     Choose the folder YCRM_IMAGE  or YCRM_THUMB and choose Import document. Browse for the multimedia object that you want to assign to the product. 
    15.     Select the object (picture) and choose Save.
    16.     Choose the tab page Properties to set this multimedia object as language-independent, set the field Language-Independent(Prod) = Yes.
    This field controls the publication of documents in catalog variants depending on the language. This means that the document is valid for all languages in which the catalog is published.
    17.     Choose Save.
    Regards,
    Sumit

  • How to add new attribute in product catalog?

    Hi All,
    Can anyone tell me how to add new field/attribute in product catalog?
    The requirement is to display product's new attribute on product catalog screen.
    Do I need to create any custom java class?
    Need suggestion!!
    Thanks.
    Regards,
    Rupali

    Hello Rupali,
    I am assuming a CRM E-Commerce scenario for my help here.
    Can anyone tell me how to add new field/attribute in product catalog?
    You must start from defining the new Attribute in an exisiting or new Set Type. Use transaction code COMM_ATTRSET. Once you have the attribute / attribute set defined, you can assign this to your catalog - in the header data as the Basic characteristic List.
    to display product's new attribute on product catalog screen
    See catalog/ProductDetailISA.jsp for tips - search for catalog.isa.attribute. The catalog item WebCatItem has all the details available already.
    com.sapmarkets.isa.catalog.webcatalog.WebCatItem currentItem = webCatItem;
    If you want to show the details of attributes in the catalog page - say - catalog/ProductsISA.jsp, the instance of WebCatItem is already available. In this page look for
      <isa:iterate id="item"
                   name="itemPage"
                   type="com.sapmarkets.isa.catalog.webcatalog.WebCatItem">
    You can see that item is an instance of the WebCatItem and follow the code in the <isa:iterate> loop. Using the following code
    Iterator itemAttribute = item.getCatalogItemAttributes();
    will give you the attribute list. You can iterate over the list of attributes and do what you want.

  • How to create a product catalog in crm(by the end user of the system)?

    how can we an end user create a product catalog?
    what is the diff b/n prod cat and prod?
    we download the prod from r/3.
    how we get the prod cat done in crm for the customers and consumers and how it is done?
    thank you,

    hi
    first of all we need to look at what is catalog management before proceding with product and product catalog.
    You use this business scenario to create a centralized product catalog that contains product descriptions, multimedia objects, pricing, and associated literature. The catalog enables quick and easy customer access to timely and personalized product information, structured in such a way that most meets your customers needs.
    Product catalogs are implemented in sales processes and are of particular importance in CRM Web Channel for presenting your products in the Web shop.
    difference between the product and product catalog
    this is not the thing that product and product catalog are completely different entity.
    Product catalog :   A grouping together of products from your product master data, in a structured hierarchy.
    You use product catalogs to group together products to present them in the Web shop, Interaction Center, or in other forms of media, for example printed format or CD-ROM.
    You can create various catalogs for your products in the product master and use them according to a validity date. For example, you could use certain products for the summer season, and other products for the winter season.
    You can also tailor your product catalog to meet other needs by creating catalog variants. For example, you can create a catalog in English with the prices displayed in US Dollars.
    so by above definition it is very much clear that products are actually assign to the catalog,i will give you an analogy that museum is a kind of catalog and you add different pictures to the museum,in the same way you add product to the product catalog according to the acatlog variant.
    Now how you assign product to product catalog
    Product Assignment
    You assign products manually or automatically to a catalog area, depending on the catalog type. The product ID, product description, and status of all products is displayed, as is the information as to whether the item contains accessories or if it is a configurable product.
    Prerequisites
    You have created products in your product master in SAP CRM under Accounts and Products
    Process
    You select a catalog area in your product catalog, and edit the item list by assigning products to the area.
    Manual Assignment
    You can assign products manually on an individual basis or by copying a catalog area. You tend to choose manual product assignment for marketing-oriented catalogs that are subjected to editorial controls.
          Individual assignment
          In this case you select the catalog area in which the product should be assigned, manually search for the product in the product master, and assign it to the area.
          Copying items from catalog areas
          You select an area or subarea from another catalog and copy it to your new catalog. The system copies all products from the copied area to the new catalog, as long as they belong to the distribution chain assigned to the target catalog variant. From these products, you can then manually determine which products from the copied area you want to keep and which items you wish to delete.
    The following is true for manually assigned products:
          You can activate or deactivate items on an individual basis.
          You can edit the list of accessories for manually assigned products. The system determines which accessories are maintained for the product in the product master and displays them in the item area of the catalog. You select which accessories should be displayed for the product in the catalog and activate them.
          Manually assigned products can be included or removed from catalog views on an individual basis.
    Automatic Assignment
    You can assign products automatically to a catalog by transferring product hierarchies from your product master to the catalog areas. The categories, items, attributes, and documents contained in the product hierarchy are copied to the new catalog.
    You use automatic product assignment mainly for functional catalogs, where products can be copied with very few changes, from the product categories of the product master. It enables a standardized characterization of your products in the catalog.
    The following is true for products assigned to the catalog using product hierarchy transfer:
          Product categories which make up the hierarchies become catalog areas in the catalog.
          Product categories in the product hierarchy must be assigned to the distribution chain to which the target catalog variant is assigned. Otherwise the category is not transferred. The same applies to the items, texts, and documents assigned to the category.
          Items are always active and cannot be individually activated or deactivated.
          Accessories maintained for transferred product in the product master are automatically included and displayed in the catalog.
          Transferred items cannot be individually included in catalog views or removed from them. Instead all items of the hierarchy are always contained in the view.
          Lists of characteristics for transferred categories and items can be automatically created when transferring product hierarchies. The transferred values are included in the item overview of the product catalog.

  • How to create a Catalog (Product/Service) & TAX issues

    SRM Guru's
    Product Ver: SRM 5.0 : ECC 6.0  ( No CCM or Service Master )
    TAX S/w: Vertex ( O )
    As of now:    We are planning to implement a vanilla SRM-ECC (in ext. classic). We are into Indirect procurement w/limit orders.
    Catalog:
    I want to create a Catalog ( UNSPSC or 1 level company catalog),
           1. Can this be created in ECC  (with out Products ) and replicated to SRM (EBP)
           2. How to go about creating it ?
           3. Can it be done with out CCM, if so how
           4. How to replicate it ? ( no CCM or middleware )
           5. Can i create it in EBP ? if so, plse say how..
    TAX:
    Vertex mentioned that, Tax codes will be mapped to services, in our case, since we don’t have Services except a free form text describing what service is provided ( eg: "Payroll Service" ), what can be done ?
    In a normal scenario, i can imagine having Service Master with all "Services", but in our situation, how can we use catalog to map to TAX codes. ?
    PS: If you could, please describe/break down the relationship between
       Catalog -- Category Id -- Product -- Services/Materials

    Hi,
    I have already read this answer "how to show active page in spry menu bar" but I am using images, not text.  I have mouse-over and mouse-out working in the Spry Menu Bar using image.png and image-over.png, but I cant' figure out how to get the image-over.png to appear on the active page since the spry menu bar is locked on the individual pages.  (I tried to put it in an editable comment, but spry wouldn't go for it. :-)
