Settings for external catalog

Dear experts,
we are trying to set up an external catalog in order for a specific customer to be able to place orders through his SRM system.
Searching, i found out that the settings that need to be done from the SRM side are the following:
First step is to setup the OCI Catalog connectivity. In order to do this the SRM side will need to setup the following parameters:
URL= http://[hostname]:[port]/[application-name]/b2b/init.do?shop=shopname&forward=ocireceive
~OKCODE ADDI
~TARGET _top
~FORCETARGET YES
~CALLER CTLG
HOOK_URL (blank)
The shop set up is the ISA B2B shop application which works perfectly for the other users using it. What i cannot find is what kind of settings do i need to make in my CRM system in order for the external catalog to be accessible from the customer. I really have no clue where else to look so any help would be highly appreciated.
Regards to all.

Hi,
I'm testing the validate function on an external catalogue (SRM 5) and am retrieving the following error just after the post URL which btw looks correct.
Error: Unable to extract ~caller from HOOK_URL
I'm new to this so all input is welcome. Thanks

Missing namespace for XI Settings for MDM Catalog 3.0

Hi All,
After having a SRM and PI server up and running, I am following the XI Settings for MDM Catalog 3.0 in the Note 1177780 https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap/support/notes/1177780
And I am now stuck at page 4 Interface Determination.
The problem is that I cannot find the namespace http://sap.com/xi/SRM-MDMCatalog
Thus, I cannot further proceed to interface mapping.
Any ideas?
PS: I found that if I
1/ do not follow the guide and use Business System as service, I can have F4 help on the namespace available in the Design Builder
2/ follow the guide and use Business Service as service, the inputs are just like text labels, and there is no F4 help on the namespace
So should I still follow the guide ? Or I will be better off using Business System as service ?
Yours,
Chun Fai

Dear Chun Fai.
Under the menu ~
SRM-MDM CATALOG 3.0 in integration repository software component SRM-MDM CATALOG, what namespaces are available?

Entering values in Web Services ID and Description, for External Catalog

Hi,
I am trying to connect to an external Vendor Catalog from ERP. Pl note that we just have ERP ECC 6.0 and no SRM. I went to SPRO and followed menu path 'Materials Management >> Purchasing >> Web Services: ID and Description'. I am not sure what to enter in 1) Seq. Number 2) Name of Parameter for Web Service and 3) Call Structure COLUMNS.
I have URL from Vendor, User Name and Password. I need to know what values are mandatory here so I can successfully connect to external Catalog. If someone can give me sample values, I can try.
Any help is appreciated,
Niranjan

Update on 08/23/2011.
We are able to connect to Vendor Catalog, select items in Cart. When I press 'Place Order' button, I see all items populated in SAP PO ME21N screen. We can then add other information and create PO. This is working great. We have another question. Heard that with ERP ECC 6.0, we can only connect 1 vendor catalog. But with SRM, we can connect more than 1 vendor catalog. Is there a BAPI or change SAP code to connect more than 1 vendor catalog from ECC 6.0 ?

Keyboard settings for external keyboard get lost between sessions

Hello!
I use MacBook Pro laptop which I connect to external mac keyboard when come to work. I prefer to use "F1, F2... etc" keys as functional keys so I turn on this setting in bootcamp control panel. However, each time I disconnect the keyboard and connect it back this setting stops to affect that keyboard while setting is still set to true in control panel.
Is this problem going to be solved?
Thank you!

Any of the regular helpers here will tell you that CCleaner deletes settings files resulting in the sort of upsets you have described. I don't know why you didn't have such trouble under previous versions of windows, but since I choose not to use windows 8 I'm not able to comment on how or if the behaviour has changed.
There have been changes in Thunderbird itself, allegedly, which I haven't seen applied to any of my own three installations of Thunderbird, that might mean that there are new files that need to be specifically excluded from CCleaner's actions. Maybe these changes are specifically related to Windows 8 installations. If you have a ''xulstore.json'' in the profile on the affected machine(s) then try adding ''xulstore.json'' to CCleaner's exclusions.
"…will essentially keep CCleaner from managing anything relating to Tbird... and that's sort of contradictory…" Why?? What do you do in Thunderbird that you consider ''needs'' to be cleaned up by CCleaner? CCleaner picks on files whose names coincide with similar files used by browsers to record browsing history. Thunderbird uses, for instance, json files to store configuration settings. If you allow CCeaner to delete these from Thunderbird's profile then Thunderbird will necessarily forget things.
We always advise to exclude all of Thunderbird's profile from CCleaner. If you won't take that advice then you're rather on your own.

Settings for external editors, i.e. Nik

I have started setting up external editor presets for my various NIK Software applications.
But what I don't have a handle on is what settings I should use for such things as:
I'm just guessing on File Format, Color Space, Bit Depth, Resolution, Compression.
I've searched all the great Adobe tutorials but need a basic understanding what I should be striving for and when?
Thanks in advance for you help.

If you're publishing to .Mac put the Easy Grade Plus generated stuff (Guess it's html?) on your iDisk.
1. Create a folder in your iDisk/Web/Sites folder.
2. Name it something like 'EasyGrade' or whatever
3. Copy your EasyGrade files to that folder
4. web.mac.com/username/nameofthefolder/nameofthefile.extension is the address at which the file will be stored on the web
Example: http://web.mac.com/username/EasyGrade/index.html
However depending on the file format (what extension it has) it may not work on .Mac as not all formats are supported.

Best rgb and gamma settings for external monitor with mountain lion

Hi,
I'm using an LG LED 22 inch monitor with my MBP mid 2010 via minidisplay to hdmi. on OS X side the settings have been default. On the LED side the settings , if set to preset RGB it tends to fade the whites a lot. when i set to user definied and let the preset rgb be at it is, the colors are quote decent. currently they are on R 50, G 58 and B 59 and Gamma 1. Which is the best RGB and Gamma value for OS X Mountain Lion?

Welcome to the forum.
First off, you need to go and buy a hardware monitor calibrator, such as an OptixXR or similar. This will build a custom monitor profile for your specific screen. Without this starting point you can forget ANY attempt at accurate colour matching.
Never (and I mean never) use a working space such as sRGB or Adobe98 as your monitor profile, that's not what they are designed for. Working spaces control what colours are possible in the image, monitor profiles control how those colours are shown on screen. Aperture uses it's own working space so you don't have to worry about that too much.
To answer the rest far too briefly, I'd suggest setting the proofing profile to sRGB and of course use sRGB for the export preset. The gamma setting you will have to adjust depending on how dark the Lightjet prints look compared to your screen. You will have to do test-strips to start with.
Your images looking crap on flickr on Windows machines is partly because Windows web browsers generally do NO colour correction, and only partly to do with the different gamma.

Specific Settings for external and internal display modes?

Does anyone know if there is a way do have different settings that adapt to whether I'm using my Macbook's internal display or am docked to my 23" external Cinema Display at home? It would be nice if the Dock would be small and on the side "internally" and large and at the bottom "externally." Also its a pain if I've expanded a window on my external, then disconnect and have to tidy up my windows again so they fit on my smaller internal dispaly

Change settings for external displays: no "mirror displays" mode

Hello,
I'm using a 13" MBP with Snow Leopard. I'm using different displays and projectors in different locations. When you plug an external display in, the two displays are first in "mirror displays" mode. First thing I do is to switch this off.
Is there any way of changing the settings, so that an external display doesn't start in the synchronized mode??
Thanks in advance.

only if you plug in this projector again. If you plug in a new projector (which I often do) it allways starts in "mirrored" mode.
I just found an app which - at least - makes the switching easier:

External Catalog Call Structures

We are on SRM 4.0 and integrated ITS. We are using the standard call structure for external catalogs which opens in a new window. However, this is causing grief with our users because they tend to stay in the catalogs too long and eventually timeout of SRM. Our current timeout is set to 30 minutes. Therefore, when they go to the catalogs, SRM sits idle. When they checkout of the catalog to bring the items over into SRM, they will get a timeout message.
I would like to have the catalog open in the same window as SRM. I understand this is done through integrated call structure.
However, when I select my items from the catalog and check out, I'm not brought back into my shopping cart. Another window opens with the look of external ITS.
Is there something I need to do with the call structure so that the items are added back to my shopping cart?
Are there other options so that users do not timeout of SRM? If SRM is sitting idle, can a message popup letting the user know their session will timeout soon unless they check out of the catalogs?

External catalog specifications for SAP E-commerce 5.0

Hi Experts,
We want to integrate external catalog ( which is custom deveponed by our client.). Using OCI interface we want to use this custom based catalog, in place of SAP ISA TREX based catalog. In ISA settings I just see that I need to define the url for the external catalog. BUT this external catalog should confirm to certain rules, Please can someone guide me, what are these set of rules?
Please help, as this is a very critical bottle neck for our project.
Thanks in advance,
Dipender Singh

Hi Dipender,
The catalog must be OCI compliant in order o use it in conjunction with the SRM Server, compliance in a nutshell means that it will transmit it's return data in the format expected by SRM, the HOOK_URL will contain all the necessary parameters to transmit the HTML data into an expected an readable format for ICI INterface.
For more details please read the attached OCI Config doc.

Jason

LR3 reset ALL develop settings for photos transferred to external HD

I recently moved all of my photos from 2009 to an external HD to save some space on my laptop. I pointed the catalog to the new location and they show up, but the develop settings for ALL of the photos have been reset. I can get back to what I had done by clicking each photo's history just prior to the reset, but why did it reset and is there a way I can get it to un-reset??

I suppose you moved the files from outside of LR. What steps did you take to "point the catalog to the new location"?
... they show up, but the develop settings for ALL of the photos have been reset. I can get back to what I had done by clicking each photo's history just prior to the reset, but why did it reset and is there a way I can get it to un-reset??
Are you saying that you actually see a "Reset" entry in the history of each photo?

OCI mapping for External Punch Out Catalog - SRM

Dear SRM Gurus,
We are using SRM 7.0 Classic scenario.
We have a scenario to External punch out catalog. I am aware of Web service call structure, UI config and BADIs.
But I am very much confused that how exactly the External Catalog data will be mapped to SRM? Where would be the inbound OCI mapping done for External Punch out catalog.
Kindly share your knowledge.
Thanks.
Regarsd, Magesh.

Magesh,
The OCI field mapping is done as specified in OCI 4.0 specification. If you like technical details on exactly where the mapping happens, you can search for FM OCI. Also, the CATALOG_TRANSFER BADI can be used to read the data that has been mapped and change if needed.
