Query regarding external catalog in internet sales

hi......
can i make b2b webshop external catalog specific .....that means for first webshop i will use one external catalog url... for second i will use different external catalog url......is that scenario possible??

Hi Eddhie,
Product catalog is part of standard CRM deployment atleast for CRM 4 and CRM 5. Your BASIS person should be able to install along with standard CRM deployment. You don't need any additional BP. Can you eloborate more on your requirement, so that I should be able to clarify?
Cheers,
PK

How to attach PDF file to product catalog in Internet Sales R/3

Hi Experts,
We are implementing SAP E-Commerce (Internet Sales) for mySAP ERP or SAP R/3, release 5.0.
I need to attach a PDF file to the product in the product catalog of the Web Shop. Some where in the documentation I have read that itu2019s possible.
I have created a document with following parameter:
Document 2001 \ Document Type L01 \ Document Part 000 \ Document version 00
In that document, I have created one original with the following parameters:
Applic.     PDF \ Data Carrier    isar3 \ Original      <WebServer folder>/SAP.pdf
I have assigned this document objects to the product as u2018Documentsu2019 in the product catalog. (through Tcode WWM2).
I have uploaded the PDF file to the correct Web Server folder.
But I CAN NOT see my PDF file anywhere in Web Catalog.
By the way, following the same steps I have also created another Document containing 2 original images:
Document 2002 \ Document Type L01 \ Document Part 000 \ Document version 00
In that document, I have created 2 originals with the following parameters:
Applic.     LIM \ Data Carrier    isar3 \ Original      <WebServer folder>/ Test_big.jpg
Applic.     SIM \ Data Carrier    isar3 \ Original      <WebServer folder>/ Test_small.jpg
I have assigned this document objects to the product as u2018Documentsu2019 in the product catalog. (through Tcode WWM2).
I have uploaded the image files to the correct Web Server folder.
I CAN see the small and large image in my product catalog with out any problem.
Is it possible to attach PDF in this way? Am I making any mistake? Am I selecting the correct document type (L01) for the document?
Please guide me.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Abir Kundu.

Hi Abir,
           SAP standard for R/3 E-commerce allows only SIM and LIM applications.
Any further requirements like PDF needs to be an enhancement on the product details JSP.
Also make sure you are storing the PDFs in the right location to retreive it on the product details.
Thanks,

Urgent : Internet Sales

Hi all,
For updating profile of a B2b user RFC "CRM_ISA_UA_IUSER_CHANGE" is used and for B2C user RFC "CRM_ISA_IUSER_CHANGE" is used . There are No parameters for language in "CRM_ISA_IUSER_CHANGE" .
we can't use RFC "CRM_ISA_UA_IUSER_CHANGE" for a B2C user also so is there any RFC for updating profile of a B2C user.If anyone have some documentation of B2B and B2C users please send me that too.

Problem replicating catalogs in CRM Internet Sales/E-Commerce 5.0

Good afternoon !
        We have CRM 5.0 SP 8, and we are using the CRM E-Commerce 5.0(also called Internet Sales) to b2b, and, we are experiencing problems during the replication of the Catalogs from the webcatalog url.
        When we try to do a full Catalog replication, we received a timeout error in the web interface, and looking at the SM50 in CRM, the process corresponding elapses the limit of 600 seconds of execution and the Catalog is not replicated.
        Today, we tried to create a new Catalog and replicate it, this worked fine in the first try, so, we add more products at this catalog and tried to full replicate it again, and received the timeout error, so, we tried to execute the delta replication, that didn´t raise error but, when acessing the E-Commerce site, no products was found.
        After this, we tried to create other new Catalog and replicate it but, received the timeout error in web interface again(even for a new catalog).
        Somebody knows what can be happening ? What can I do to solve this problem ?
        Thank you in advance !

Hi Wilson,

Regarding Internet Sales / E Commerce module on ECC 6.0

Hi All,
Please let me know whether SAP Internet Sales / E Commerce module comes by default in an ECC 6.0 installation.
Also if yes, please provide me with some guides/documents on configurations to be done in ECC for making the SAP IS module functional.
Thanks!!
Lisha

Hi Lisha,
You will not get SAP Internet sales Software Components while installing ECC, You need to deploy sca files externally.
You need to download sca files from service market place.
link : [ download ink|https://websmp108.sap-ag.de/patches]
Goto Downloads -> SAP Software Distribution Center -> select Search for Support Packages and Patches
try to get below sca files using search key:
eg: for SAP-SHRJAV.sca file search with shrjav
o SAP_JTECHS.sca
o SAP_BUILDT.sca
o SAP-JEE.sca
o SAP-SHRJAV.sca
o SAP-SHRWEB.sca
o SAP-SHRAPP.sca
o SAP-CRMJAV.sca
o SAP-CRMWEB.sca
o SAP-CRMAPP.sca
o SAP-CRMDIC.sca
o SAP-IPCMSA.sca
o STRUTS.sca
o TEALEAF.sca
download all sca files and deploy to SAP-J2EE.
Hope this helps you.

Regarding internet sales certification

hi......
i want to give SAp-CRM certification on Internet Sales.
So can anybody regarding material...... also can anybody tell me details about the syllabus......

Hi
I really doubt it ,if there is any documentation for certification.
I would share my experience when i took the examination.
There are 4 Parts
1)Fundamentals
2)Base customising
3)Internet sales
4)Sales
In this 4 parts you get 40 questions will be from internet sales,Sales 10,Fundamentals-12 and rest 18 you will be getting it from Base customising..but there might be bits and pieces of changes in the pattern.I cannot gurantee you that similar pattern will be followed.But internet sales you get 40 question in that particularly concentrate on Product catalog it is very very important.Dont spend much time in Middleware and IPC.But go through all the materials as much as you can and line by line get the basics right.But the examinations questions will be tricky and tough so read the questions properly and understand it before you answer it.I wish you ALL THE BEST!!!..If you got anymore doubts feel free to ask me am happy to bail you out.
Cheers

Internet Sales Catalog Initial Replication issues - SAP CRM 5.2

Hi Gurus,
we are experiencing an issue during the configuration of the E-Commerce Internet Sales (ISA) for SAP CRM 5.2. In particular we are getting an error during the initial replication of our catalog to the TREX server (up and running on the same machine as the CRM server itself). The transaction is COMM_PCAT_IMS_INIT.
The error gives the message "No Staging Customizing Data Available (Message no. COM_PCAT_IMS001)". We have already checked all relevant RFC connections (FTP, HTTP and the TREX one), finding them correctly set. We also checked the target for publishing the catalog (in SPRO), setup with anonymous SAPFTP connection.
Can anyone help us resolving this issue?
Thanks in advance
Reward points if helps!

Hi Steffano,
Am also facing the same problem did you resolved it ? If please can tell me how did you resolved it .I would appreciate and reward points if you can resolve it .
You can send me a mail to [email protected]
Thanks

We are using SAP SRM to punch out external catalogs. Firefox version 3.5 and below works fine and the items from the catalogs are brought back to SRM .But when we use version 3.6.12 the items are not getting transferred back to SRM from the Catalogs.

SRM is a procurement system from SAP which we use to purchase goods and service. We have external catalogs like officemax, cdw etc which we punchout the items and bring it to SRM for ordering.
When we use firefox version 3.5 and below the items which we add from the Catalogs are correctly brought back to SRM for us to order. But when we use versions 3.6.12 the items are not brought back to SRM.
Internet Explorer 7 and 8 works fine. Is there anyway you can help us.
Thanks
Jayant

Hi,
Firstly I would suggest you to upgrade your database from Oracle Release 11.2.0.1.0 to Oracle Release 11.2.0.2 . This is the recommended Oracle 11g database version for SAP solutions. Many of your problem will get resolved with it.
Question 1:
So my first question would be is there any other suggestions besides adjusting the mentioned parameter above in order to ensure that no work processors going into hang state due to RFCs' occupying it as this issue always happens at the end of the month only when there are massive users accessing it.
For immediate resolution the approach you have followed is correct viz limiting number of dialog processes for RFC. Secondly you need to analyze why RFC processing takes so much time. You need check which programs are getting executed by those RFC.
Generate EarlyWatch report for more detailed view
Question 2:
My second question is what went wrong with the libttsh11.so file. How could it be 0 size in PRD when no signs of changes had happen to the PRD system. Is this a proven Oracle Bug or something else since I have never encountered anything like this before.
The libttsh11.so library cannot be found in the related directory.
Cause
The file system is mounted using CIO option, but per Note 257338.1 Direct I/O (DIO) and Concurrent I/O (CIO) on AIX 5L, an ORACLE_HOME on a filesystem mounted with "cio" option is not supported.
Such a configuration will cause, installation, relinking and other unexpected problems.
Solution
Disable the CIO option on the filesystem.
References
NOTE:257338.1 - Direct I/O (DIO) and Concurrent I/O (CIO) on AIX 5L
Hope this helps.

Yes, you need to follow the path:
swdc > Download > Installations and Upgrades > Entry by Application Group > SAP Application Components > SAP E-COMMERCE FOR SAP R/3 > SAP INTERNET SALES R/3 4.0 > Installation
Here you should find two files.
Direct links to files (hope they work):

Open Catalog Interface (OCI) - Is CRM/ISA ready to be an External Catalog?

I have found much information here and on help.sap.com talking about how to set up an external catalog to be part of our catalog(s). But, there is a severe lack of information to educate myself as to whether our catalog(s) are ready to be added as an external catalog to our customer's SRM system for example.
The only valuable information I have been able to find on how to be sure that our CRM/ISA Partnershop can be used by our business partners in their various (SRM) procurement systems is here:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm40sr1/helpdata/en/73/fd147fcaaf41489508aaac8e3e37b5/frameset.htm
We have a specific request that our CRM/ISA Partnershop be made available via our business partner's SRM system. I can find no guide to help me provide the requested information without basically just guessing on my part.
This is what they provided as a worksheet to return.
I assume the following or would like additional input:
1) They will need a Userid and Password.
2) For Language, we currently only support EN. Would I enter EN or just leave blank?
3) What do the following refer to? (These are the fields as requested and their suggested value by our customer)
~OKCODE       ADDI
~TARGET       _top
~FORCETARGET       YES
~CALLER       CTLG
HOOK_URL       (Assumed to be blank)
4) These are the required OCI fields they would be expecting from the our catalog, but they can accept all OCI Release 4.0 fields...Assuming the connections from the above settings are made properly, will CRM automatically provide the approrpriate detail or do I need to set something somewhere? All the XCM/DCM config settings for OCI seem to deal with an incoming External Catalog, not outgoing.
OCI fields
<input type='hidden' name='NEW_ITEM-QUANTITY[1]' value='3'>
<input type='hidden' name='NEW_ITEM-DESCRIPTION[1]' value='Descriptio'>
<input type='hidden' name='NEW_ITEM-UNIT[1]' value='DZN'>
<input type='hidden' name='NEW_ITEM-PRICE[1]' value='1.62'>
<input type='hidden' name='NEW_ITEM-LEADTIME[1]' value='5'>
<input type='hidden' name='NEW_ITEM-CURRENCY[1]' value='USD'>
<input type='hidden' name='NEW_ITEM-MATGROUP[1]' value='44121704'>
5) Do I need to 'do' anything not listed above to be sure our catalog(s) are ready to perform as requested?
Thanks for any clarification/links, etc
I've spent weeks off and on now to try to determine an answer I could feel confident in.

1/25/07 - Found a bit more info, but still need help determining if there are any additional settings/configs we need to make before starting to test with our Business Partner.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm40sr1/helpdata/en/19/3a74482f5811d5b3890050da4cccf0/frameset.htm
I did these steps already, but have not tested yet:
Customizing and Settings in CRM / Internet Sales
Settings for receiving purchase orders in CRM
Purchase order without reference to a quotation:
In the CRM Business Connector, an XML purchase order is received via HTTP and it is converted into a sales order IDOC. This IDOC is then transferred to CRM and is posted there.
The delivered mapping service expects a purchase order in the OLD_EBP XML format, which is transformed into a NEW EBP XML, xCBL and finally a CRM IDOC XML.
The following settings must be made in CRM:
· Creating a partner profile for the sender
Path in SAP Menu
Tools -> Business Communication -> IDoc-Basis -> Administration -> Partner profile.
Partner type: Customer
Partner number: Number of the sold-to party in CRM
Transaction code: APLI (Individual IDoc processing)
Message type: CRMXIF_ORDER_SAVE_M
(key fields of table EDPP1:
-PARNUM partner number
-PARTYP partner type)
·         To view CRM address management errors in the document, the parameter CRM_USER_LEVEL must be set to value 9.
Path in SAP Menu
System -> User profile -> Own data -> Parameters.
I have asked my Basis contact to look into this portion:
Business Connector
Install a Business Connector 4.0 or higher.
Required packages:
· Sap_crm
· Sap_crm_customizing
· XSLT (only for BC 4.0, not required for BC 4.6)
After processing the purchase order that was received first, an inactive routing rule is created that is completed and activated.
Path in BC
BC Manager -> Adapters -> Routing -> Edit.
Transport: ALE (R/3 IDoc)
SAP Destination:
The ports must be activated and the service EbpXmlToRfc must be accessible before the Business Connector can receive documents.
Some CRM settings are hard coded in the transformations. They are in the file BasicOrderSettings.xsl, that are in the directory ...ServerpackagesSap_crmxsltincludesxcbl2sapcrm_xif.
These are:
Transaction type: TA (standard order)
Item object type: BUS2000131(sales item CRM)
Text ID under which the order text is created in the CRM order: 1000 (customer note)
Make sure that all of the available Business Connector patches are installed.
Our customer contact says they went with WebMethod instead of Business Connector, but I'm hoping we can make it work using BC without having to research yet another piece of the puzzle.
Any additional detail/advice from anyone that's set up their Partnershop to be connected to SRM EBP via OCI?

Dear friends,
I am creating a new web shop in internet sales web shop maintenance portal. Also I have created a product catalog in R/3 & assigned the same in the new web shop. Product catalog is replicated to trex server through ISA_CATALOG_REPLICATION program.
Now when I try to log in to the new web shop , system gives a message "variant language does not match, the shop you are using is maintained inconsistently.
I have checked the variant, language & it is correct. I am unable to figure out what is wrong.
Can you let me know what is wrong here.
Thanks for your help in advance.
Sharan

Hi Sharan,
in R/3 internet sales you have languages maintained on 3 places:
(1) in the definition of the catalog variant
(2) in the webshop admin
(3) the language that you use to call the webshop (in the URL).
Those need to be all the same.
regards,
Wim

New to Internet Sales for ERP - Few basic questions.

Hi,
We are going to implement Internet Sales for ERP and I have some questions.
1) Is Product Catalog Mandatory for implementing Internet Sales for ERP / R3?
2) We are already using MDM for catalog and we are not the Product Catalog module in R3. Will there be a problem implementing MDM into ISA? Has anyone implemented ISA with MDM as product catalog?
3) We are planning to make it an extra-net application; what is the best architecture placement of the ISA server? Should we have it in DMZ or outside DMZ. What is the best approach among option a and b?
a) Web Browser (Internet) -- External Firewall -- Webserver + ISA server -- Internal Firewall -- ERP
b) Web Browser (Internet) -- External Firewall -- Webserver -- Internal Firewall -- ISA server + ERP
Please Enlighten.
Thanks,
Deepak

Hello Deepak,
1) Is Product Catalog Mandatory for implementing Internet Sales for ERP / R3?
Catalog is an independent piece of feature and integrated to the basket (or the selling process). You can hide the internal catalog by a switch in the Shopadmin XCM administration - Catalog tab._But_ you may still need a catalog (internal) for reading variant data. However, no replication is required.
2) We are already using MDM for catalog and we are not the Product Catalog module in R3. Will there be a problem implementing MDM into ISA? Has anyone implemented ISA with MDM as product catalog?
ISA works with external catalogs with ease. All you need is to make use of the Open catalog Interface (OCI) feature. After all, OCI is a SAP technology, and all its products must be capable of understanding it. Isn't it? SAP MDM catalog is OCI enabled.
3) We are planning to make it an extra-net application; what is the best architecture placement of the ISA server? Should we have it in DMZ or outside DMZ. What is the best approach among option a and b?
a) Web Browser (Internet) -- External Firewall -- Webserver + ISA server -- Internal Firewall -- ERP
b) Web Browser (Internet) -- External Firewall -- Webserver -- Internal Firewall -- ISA server + ERP
(b)
Please Enlighten.

CRM 2007 - Internet Sales on Linux

Hi
I'm configuring Internet Sales and the Best Practice Guides refer to Windows Server configuration but I'm configuring for for Linux Servers.
Has anyone done this and if so where did you source the relevant config documentation.
Many Thanks
Panduranga

Hi Panduranga,
What component of the Internet Sales are you configuring on Linux?
Web Server (Images) ? J2EE Application Server? ABAP Backend (CI+DB) Instance?
If I'm right, I think you refer to the Web Server meant for the images that were maintained in the Product Catalog. We had configured the Image Server succesfully in Unix and Windows, however we stuck with Windows since the maintenance was easier.
In terms of feasibility, the image server can definitely be installed on the Linux OS, however, sadly there is no documentation by SAP for the same.
As far as my knowledge is concerned, you need to do the following:
1. Provide user based FTP access to the Web server, which creates the directories on the Web server based on the Product Catalog item GUIDs. (43,44,45 etc.,)
2. Configure a Web Server with anonymous access to HTTP for writing and reading. This is used by the ABAP instance to transfer the documents and the various contents to the Web server in the respective folders as created in the previous step.
If you satisfy the above pre-requisites then you should not face any issue using your Linux servers. The SAP Product Catalog interacts with the Web Server at the time of replication, and its interaction is through the HTTP and FTP protocols, hence the OS of the Web Server is irrelevant.
Having said that, you could face issues with different OSes in terms of the tighter security restrictions they apply for the above two protocols.
Hope it helps.
Thanks & Regards,
Nelson
