Item catalogs interface

guruz,
we are facing some issues in catalogs conversion.Its urgent.
Can the item catalog interface program be run in 'Update' mode like that of Items and categories. ?
if yes,then how ..?
business is on hold...its Urgent !! :(
thanks in advance..

You can update an existing categories by inserting records in the MTL_ITEM_CATEGORIES_INTERFACE.
Make sure that you populate old_category_id and category_id and make transaction_type = UPDATE.
For catalog updates, populate mtl_system_items_interface with transaction_type = UPDATE and insert records in mtl_desc_elem_val_interface.
Hope this helps,
Sandeep Gandhi

  • Any interface table for Importing Item catalog data

    Item catalog data needs to be moved from oracle 11.0.3 instance to Oracle 11i Instance.
    Is there any Interface table available in Oracle11i for this purpose?

    Hi,
    Thank you.
    I have given the requirement below.
    When data need to be Migrated from one instance to another,one of the method followed is to collect data from old instance and put the data into staging table of new instance.After validation data from staging table will be transfered to the Interface table.After this a standard program is run to populate in the base table.
    For item catalog is there any such interface table available? or is there any way to populate the base table in 11i instance?
    Thanks,

  • Shadow Item catalog or interface?

    Hi,
    In phase one we are implementing only purchasing, receivables and payables. For the use of purchasing we need the item catalog which is in our legacy systems.
    The choices we have are:
    A. Creating a shadow item catalog in ERP and updating it very frequently (We have many frequent changes in our catalog)
    B. Customize an on-line interface to the legacy system.
    Did anyone attempted one of the above? Which difficulties are we facing?
    Thanks in advance

  • INV: Item CATALOG copy functionality

    client's business requirement is to create Items to be copied multiple times with exact attributes except a few changes in the Item Catalog elements. The standard functionality allows "Copy" of an item (M) Tools -> Copy. However this functionality does not copy the Catalog Group and it's Elements from the "Source" Item into the new "Target" item.
    We created an SR# requesting for the desired functionality, but it is told that this is not a standard functionality and an Enhancement Request has been forwarded, but most likely it would not be possible to expect the ER developed anytime soon.
    Has anyone came accross such requirement? If anyone has a workaround or have developed any Customized solution to this, pls respond with your suggestion.
    Thanks & Regards
    -- AeBham

    There is no seeded solution.
    You should develop a quick custom request that takes the From Item and To Item as parameter. That request will call the item import to create the item and it will call Item Catalog Group Element Open Interface.
    Hope this helps

  • Customer Item Open Interface

    Does anyone know what the Lock_flag is for the customer item open interface and what it should be set to when creating customer items? It is a required field but it is not explained in the 11.5.9 documentation.

    I didn't find this flag in TRM of 11.5.10. In what table did you find it?

  • Item Open Interface giving error for Org Assignment

    We ran the MTL_SYSTEMS_ITEMS_INTERFACE & loaded all the items at master level.
    We are having issues in setting at Org level. Cant figure out what the issue as only few records gets assigned & then garbage sets in for remaining records. An SR has been raised & the tech support representative was saying that UOM's are different at master & org levels. Never heard of this issue earlier. I have worked with UOM's different at Master/Org levels.
    The UOM's are different at Master & Org Level and in some cases the UOM are different for different Orgs. Attribute Control for Primary/Sec UOM is at Org level. The UOM's belong to the same UOM Class. There are standard conversions defined for all these UOMs.
    Any pointers for quick resolution ?

  • Use of Open Catalog Interface (OCI) in ERP

    Dear colleagues,
    I am not sure if this is the right forum to post this question but can we use Open Catalog Interface (OCI) without having SRM directly in ECC 6.0? If yes what are the prerequisites, customizing, licensing etc.
    What we are planning is end users will select material(s) he/she wants to procure from a catalog from a portal (not an SAP portal) and once this is done purchase requisition will be created in ERP system.
    Regards
    Melih

    ECC6.0 MM does support OCI.  This works on both the Purchase Req and PO.  You can punchout from MM and shop from an OCI compliant source such as MDM, supplier hosted, other catalog tools and then this informaiton is pulled back into the Purchase Req or PO.  OCI is delivered with ECC6.0 MM so there should not be any license issues.
    Configuration is part of the catalog web service set up and this is where you maintain information such as URL, user id, password, etc.

  • Is OCI (Open Cataloge Interface) supported from MM or SD

    Hello.
    My customer has installed SAP ERP, but do not have SAP SRM. We plan to implement a punch-out from SAP to a web site of Cisco with use of OCI.
    I do find a lot of information about OCI related to SRM, but none related to ERP.
    Does anybody know wether OCI somehow is support by ERP?
    Geir Sunde, tlf. +47 977 555 97

    Hi,
    Open Catalog Interface is related to SAP SRM it is nothing to
    do with SAP R/3.When we are using the Catalog for creating a
    shopping basket this interface is the link between the Catalog
    and  the SRM server.
    Please Post this message in this forum  in SRM general you
    will get some Inputs but definitely it  is NOT supported by
    SAP R/3.
    We plan to implement a punch-out from SAP to a web site of Cisco with use of OCI.
    I think  you have to IMPLEMENT  -SAP SRM only

  • PCUI and OCI (Open Catalog Interface)

    Hi,
    we want to integrate a external catalog into the PCUI application qutation. The goal is to take over the shopping basket of the catalog into a Quotation. The data which should be taken over are products out of the external product catalog. Therefore the open catalog interface (OCI) should be used. The external catalog sends the shopping basket selected by the user via a HTTP Post to a so called Hook-URL which is provided by the calling application (PCUI). The calling application (PCUI) will retrieve this POST and take over the data send by the HTTP Post.
    My question is now if something like that is possible with PCUI framework?
    Thanks for your help.

  • Supplier Item Catalog - search screen query ~ tends to take 10 - 12 secs

    I wanted to find out if any customer(s) out there has ever encountered this performance issue in the Supplier Item Catalog search screen. We setup an item catalog category using the supplier item but when we attempt to query on the item/supplier search, the search time takes up to 10 - 12 secs per find. Caveat, when you do search for the same item on the 2nd time; the return is alot quicker. It seems the parsing is the issue but we are still trying to figure a resolution to the performance factor. Thanks.

    Hi Hussein,
    Thanks for the reply back. Unfortunately, we tried to apply both patches (recommended patch (5404474) v. the previous patch(5567690) but it did not work . We actually have a TAR opened with Oracle support. I'd thought that with this Oracle forum site, other customers may have the similar performance issue and hopefully a recommended resolution. At this point, Oracle support mentioned the issue lies in the parsing segment of the query.

  • Supplier Item Catalog

    I am considering using the supplier item catalog in core purchasing. I am aware that when you search for an item in the supplier item catalog it returns items from various sources. My question is: will it only return system items? or does it return any freeform requisition line?

    Hi
    I tried to use Supplier item catalogue as a core place to set up contract items as still using paper requisitions as our ships do not have online access. I created items in the catalogue via quotations only to find that the order pad function does not work. According to a posting on Metalink this is standard functionality !.
    This doesn't directly answer your question directly but hope the info is useful.
