Search help on product category

Hi experts,
We are on an SRM 5.0 system, classic scenario.
When adding an item to the shopping cart, using the 'describe requirement', the user can choose between 'goods' and 'services'. After selecting this, a product category can be chosen. At this moment the system does not filter the search results on product category. If the user for example selects product type = service, we need to restrict the product category choice to only service categories. Anybody an idea how this could be achieved? Standard not possible?
Kind Regards,

Hi,
If this not the std functionality then you may have to modify the search help to restrict the O/P list for services product category.
At one of our early implementations,for the product search in the link "Internal Goods/Services,we modified the search help "BBPH_PRODUCT".We attached a custom function module exit to this search help in which the logic was written for retrieving the products based on plant .May be you can think of something similar.

Hello,
Kindly check the webdnpro component /SAPSRM/WDC_SH_PRODCAT.
This compoent is called for F4 help of product category.
You can modify the search help by enchancing it.
If you want to change the logic then in method ONACTIONDO_START you can add post exit.

How to Enhance search help for product groups. Currently no ability to add multiple lines from result list

Hi All,
In CRM Web UI, there is no multi selection option for product group id f4 help for Custmer event creation or edit screen under “Product” tab=> Product Group ID field.
Web UI Component Details -
UI component : TPMOE
View : TPMOE/ProductEOL
Context: PRODUCT Attribute : -PRODUCT_GRUOP
Click on Product Group ID field then below F4 Help screen appears.
In the product group results list, user can select only one row and Then all the product will be queried for selected product group, transferred to product list tab.
Current technical design for Product Group F4:
a) SE11 Data Dictionary search help “CRM_MKTPL_PGRP1” is used and data is fetched displayed based it( Refer method GET_V_PRODUCT_GROUP of context node class CL_TPMOE_PRODUCTEOL_CN00)
b) In UI, F4 pop up is handled by UI Framework in SAP generic manner so no multi selection is allowed.
c) A round trip event is triggered after selection of row from results which reload view with queried product result based group selected.
Requirement :-
In the product group F4 results list View, user should be able to select multiple row .As SAP GUI has the option of multiple entry selection from search help window with the help of field called MULTISEL.
System should query for products with all selected product group, transferred to product list tab.
Note: - The multi select options works fine for GUI, but for UI standard SAP code ignores this or never is this structure taken into consideration. Standard class to display F4 help on UI is CL_THTMLB_F4HELP.
Can we enforce same behavior like DDIC search help in Web UI too Or suggest how we can achieve this requirement?
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Arjun

Hello All,
We have achieved this requirement by Custom development and approach followed as -
Define UI object model zprgrp & zprgrpquery and object relationship in table ZCRM_OBJTAB
Query Strcuture : ZCRMST_PRGRP_SEARCH & Result List structure : ZCRMST_PRGRP_RESULT
Created Custom component : ZPRGRP with Search /Result view and with GENIL Class, search logic
Defined custom ComponentUsage “ProductGroup1SearchHelp” for ZPRGRP in Standard Component TPMOE
e. Called F4 application for field product _group with help component usage created in step d.

Search help for Product id in SRM

Hi ,
I have a requirement of changing the search help that is attached to the product id in SRM. we are using SRM7.0. Currently I see an elementary search help /SAPSRM/BBPH_PRODUCT on the webdynpro screen of shopping cart creation. This is an elementary search help . I need to add a collective search help to the product id field which will replicate in all the applications .
Is that possible. if yes, how can we do that .
Quick responses are highly appreciated.
Thanks
Srinivas M.

add search help to input fields data type. or you could assign search help via structure there that field is defined. you could enhance standard code adding custom search help which is called via FM. Choose the way.

Help with product category assignment please

Hi experts,
I need to do a modificacion in my R3 downloaded products to CRM. Because a
product catalog fulfitment, I need to modify the assigned product hierarchy
in CRM but I don't know where can I do it this mapping between an R3 product
hierarchy and CRM product hierarchy.
I explain, if product A belongs in R3 to product category A, I need to modify
this assignment in CRM, for exmaple, product A in CRM will belong to product category
B.
Modifications/creations on product master are only downloaded to CRM, never upload
from CRM to R3.
Any help in this issue please? Is possible to get a behaviour like this?
Thanks to all.
Javier

Hi Javier,
You can always do a RFC data upload of the changed product from CRM to R/3. I guess you do know how to trigger a OLTP data transfer in product master maintenance transaction COMMPR01.
Thanks,

Window freezes when Product category selected via match-code (search help)

Hello Experts,
I am using SRM 7.0 Extended Classic Scenario.
I maintained a product category hierarchy in the SRM environment.
I maintained the GL Accounts related, the tax determination, the source system etc.
I did all this customizing in a Development environment where everything was working fine.
Now I just transported all this to a Quality environment.
And in the Quality I am facing the following issue :
If I select a product category via the match-code (search help), after the category is selected, the window freezes.
I have to shut it down manually using the Windows Close button.
However, when I type the category number, everything works fine.
Do you have any idea what could be causing this issue, and how to fix it ?
Thanks in advance,
Sofiane

Hello,
We have the exact same issue in SRM 7.0 Extented Classic Scenario. This was working fine before we installed the latest support package 11. Which support package do you have?
The same problem occurs with every drop down menu (search help) in EBP. For example when creating a new shopping cart, if I try to add approver, the same thing happens. After clicking 'Approval Process: Display / Edit Agents' > 'Add Approver', the window freezes. Same thing happens with IE8 and Firefox 3.6.13. Could you also try the same?
Could it be a new bug in SP11?
Thanks and best regards,
Matti Hokkanen

Search Help with in a serach help required in SRM 4.0

Hi,
Requirement: Search help required for Product Category field in the Search help for Product(BBPH_PRODUCT) in SRM portal.
This search help is used in Create shopping Cart transaction. The hyper link on Internal Goods/Services leads to the search help BBPH_PRODUCT.
My analysis:
The field Product Category (CATEGORY_ID) has search help(COM_CAT_HIER) attached to its data element. When I single test the search help BBPH_PRODUCT in SAP GUI,I can see the search help for field product category in the selection dialogue box. However the same does not appear on the corresponding screen in HTML.
Please let me know whether I need to do some thing to make the search help appear on the HTML screen?
With Regards,
Prakash Kamath

Hi Prakash,
I have the same problem but with another field. Unloading point. Could you please tell me how did you solve this problem with displaying F4 help on html/ SRM portal?
Thank you very much.

Hello Experts,
Client wants to change the Categories/Material groups results layout (including additional columns) in the "Find Product Category" screen (found in the shopping cart, when you click on the "..." icon, in the "Category" field).
The search must use 3 "Z" tables.
What BADI(S) can I use in order to implement this requirement? Would I need to modify templates / services?
