SRM Catalog and PM BOM integration

Hello Experts,
We have a scenario where client wants to use SRM catalog items (no material master) into the ECC PM BOM as a component.
Catalog items are already integrated with work order processing. 
Is this advisable to do? What is required to do this?
Thanks,
Sagar

Hi Sagar,
I believe this is better asked in the ERP Forums, please raise your query there, from the perspective of SRM and Catalog, as long as the calling application supports Open catalog interface call/return, you can use catalogs in it. I uess also helpful for BOM setup would be the SRM-MDM Hierarchy structure

Jason

  • Srm-catalog portal content

    hi!
    does anybody know what is the special content that SRMMDMCAT01_0.sca have?  
    different iViews?
    if i'm implementing srm-portal-mdm-r3   it's necessary?
    because i'm not using all the srm catalog, and only installed the mdm portal content, i'll have some problems?
    thanx

    The purpose of SRM-MDM is to use MDM as the catalog.  You would store the data in MDM and SRM will then reference MDM ad-hoc.  As part of the implementation, SAP delivers a webdynpro application which is deployed on a Netweaver Java stack, and that's what the user uses to search the catalog.  The two applications (iViews) are called SearchUI and AdminUI.  If you aren't going to use these, how are you planning on searching the catalog from SRM?

  • SRM-MDM-Catalog and  XI using HTTP

    I need to do a integration between SRM 5 and SRM-MDM-Catalog using XI.
    I imported the SRM-MDM-Catalog packages into the XI and I saw that all connections with MDM are using FTP in the comunnication channel template.
    Is it possible to do connections for MDM using http or soap?

    As far as I know using Files is how XI interacts with MDM. All scenarios I have seen on SDN have been with File adapter being used on MDM 's side.
    Maybe there is a way , am watching this thread as well.

  • What are the options for integrating the event catalog and event landing pages in our website?

    We'd like to integrate the event catalog and event landing pages into our website but would prefer not to use the standard iframe embed code. Are there other solutions available, like an API or something else?
    Reason for this is that when we tried it with the iframe embed code the event catalog seems to load quite slow in a webpage on our website. Plus it seems we can't change the width and height of the event catalog with the CQ5 editor, or have the event catalog embed dynamically change in size depending on the amount of events in the catalog.

    Keeping everything in one scene is the better way to go.  Scenes are useful for animators who do not use navigation, they just make movies that play frame after frame without stopping.  But for anything that involves navigating the timeline you will have less headaches if you just avoid them and keep everything in the one main timeline.
    There are primarily two approaches to implementing pages in a timeline.  Either spread them out along the timeline and navigate from frame to frame to access them, or create them as movieclips (all in the same frame) and manage their visibility.  The latter approach makes it easier to maintain the status of a one page if navigating to another is necessary.  And you might find it useful to mix these two approaches at times.
    When you have everything on one timeline, you can have a layer dedicated to actionscript that you extend the full length of the timeline, which makes shareable code, such as variables and functions, available to anything along the timeline.  This avoids any need to have duplicate function definitions since you can have the same single function available to multiple pages in the site.  I usually use two actions layers... one for the shared stuff which has all code in frame 1 only, and another for frame specific code such as timeline commands and other action coding that needs to happen at particular frames.

  • BI Publisher and Presentation services integration

    Hi,
    I have configured BI publisher and done the presentation services integration also. When I try to build a query by connecting to RPD, I am able to generate a query and design the report.
    But when I select BI Answers as a data source, I am not listed out the reports. When I click on browse button, it opens the popup window and dispays BI Catalog and nothing else. when I check saw log, it has authentication error.
    We have enabled LDAP authentication. I have used Administrator user to configure BI publisher. I have enabled the BI Publisher security type for BI Publisher authentication.
    I have used the Administrator user while executing the cryptotools utility.
    The following is the error.
    Odbc driver returned an error (SQLDriverConnectW).
    State: 08004. Code: 10018. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: 08004] [nQSError: 10018] Access for the requested connection is refused.

    I am loogin in using administrator user and trying to use BI answers as a data source.
    If anyone have any idea on this issue. Kindly help on the same.

    Hi,
    Yes Seriously , the documentation at this link http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E15586_01/fusionapps.1111/e20838/jdev.htm shows clearly there is a out-of-box region called "BI Publisher Region " to be integrated with ADF UI.
    But after installing the extensions also I am not able to find that option.
    I have installed "Oracle Fusion Applications Companion 11g (11.1.1.5.3) " updates as mentioned here "https://blogs.oracle.com/jdevextensions/entry/setting_up_a_fusion_applications"
    After installing we see "BI ADF Components" in Technology Scope but If we open a jspx/jsff we don't see "BI Publisher" region option in component palette. Looks like there is something seriously missing.
    One thing to note is I installed Jdev 11.1.1.5 downloaded from OTN and installed the updates from "http://edelivery.oracle.com" will that be a problem?
    Any body from ORACLE ACE directors pls help us. We need this region looks like it has more options to save the document etc..
    Thanks for your help!!

  • SRM Catalog Transfer Error

    We have just finished installing SRM 7.0 ABAP (AIX/Oracle/NW 7.0 EhP 1) on one server, SRM 7.0 Java (same config) and SRM-MDM (3.0) on another server.
    The servers talk fine. We're using ABAP for UME, we've done all of the configuration in the SRM-MDM catalog config guide and the SRM config guide.
    We have a test user, set up to be able to see the catalog and shop. When logged in as this test user, we go to Employee Self-Service, Shop and click on a catalog to search. The catalog items are displayed on the screen.
    When we try to transfer items to the shopping cart, we receive an error:
    "Unit not transferred and cannot be determined
    Incomplete items in catalog. Only complete items were transferred."
    There is nothing in the J2EE logs, or MDM logs. No short dumps, nothing in the System log on the ABAP side.
    Can anyone think of any place else to look?

    Log into your MDM_SRM_UI_App, check your OCI setting and find out which field in MDM is mapped to you order unit. And check MDM catalog manager to find out whether or not you are sending this value.
    If this check is fine, check the uom has a correct ISO code in SRM and the primary iso code check box is checked. I am sure the first check should solve your problem
    Thanks

  • SRM Catalog Download

    Hi all
    I need to download the full SRM Catalog structure together with all details from SRM to logcal XML file.
    I've checked all around here on SDN but have not comed up with a clear solution...
    One of these were : http://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1217084
    My concern is more or less UNICODE..
    So far I have tested this
    - I have a deep structure with all the data about the Catalog structure <t_dyntable>
    - then I try to convert this contents into UTF-8. By doing this I will get some of the special characters to show up as they should ( it think one of those were .amp that were successfully translated to &)
    - Then CALL TRANSFORMATION were done to get the XML-file
    Below you can see some different way's I have tried... Trying to use XSTRING.... and download via type BIN for GUI_DOWNLOAD. My starting point was with UTF-16, but with that I could not read the XML file at all - With UTF-8 I can read it but still as soon as some kind of special sign shows up the XML-editor complains about - Not allowed letter. Please help

    Hi again
    With coding above the download xml-file will contain
    &amp :  is interpreted as & in the xml-editor = OK
    BUT the file contains other special signs that do not work:
    ± :  is not interpreted ok. XML-editor will stop analyzing the file = NOT OK
    Do you know if I could use another way of codepage or something to also handle these special signs.

  • Central Contract, MDM Catalog, and classic scenario

    Dear SAP experts,
    We are in SRM 7.01 with backend ECC 6.05 deploying classic scenario. We are using Central Contract Management in which we negotiate contract in SRM and later distribute it to ECC. We also plan to use SRM-MDM Catalog.
    We notice that if we are using classic scenaro, the contract that is used as reference is the contract number in ECC (the one distributed from SRM). So at first we assume that if we want to push the contract data to MDM, we should have pushed the ECC Contract number. However we find out that actually SAP block the ECC Contract coming as distribution from SRM to go to MDM.
    Our second option is to use distribution of contract from SRM to catalog. It does using SRM contract number. We create SC and then we pull the catalog item from the catalog (which contain SRM contract number) and then we order. However we end up with 'error in process' in which the system try to create a PR instead in the ECC (meaning that the contract number cannot be read).
    We're puzzled with this. How can we use the combination of central contract, MDM catalog and classic scenario? Can we use the combination?
    Best regards,
    John

    Maria
    If you want the contracts to be in SRM and do not want them to send to Backend, then check this out.
    Create a Vendor list for those items in SRM by assigning the local contracts to the vendors.Activate Vendor list for sourcing.
    Then local contract data should pick as SOS from the vendor list.
    If you can create contracts in Backend for stock material then SC would pick the backend contract as SOS in classic scenario.
    Let me know if the above works or not.
    PS : Reward points if helpful.

  • Images stop appearing in SRM Catalog

    Hi,
    We have a problem thet images in the SRM Catalog stop showing.
    The images are loaded in to the MDM Repository, (no hyperlinks)
    The end users can see some of the pictures but some are just blank (no red cross even)
    We are now using SAP MDM 7.1 SP09 and SRM 7.0 EHP2
    Do you have any ideas how this problem can be solved?
    Many thanks in advance!
    Best regards,
    Kim

    Hi Sudha.
    PDF's are supported by SRM-MDM Catalog as a hyperlinks.
    Try attaching the PDF as a hyperlink for a record.
    - Select a record-> Naviagate to Hyperlink Qualified Lookup->Add a new entry ->Select type as Link->Provide the PDF URL and other details->Save the record.
    you can also do a mass upload of the PDF to a repository.
    Now configure the hyperlink column to the UI and launch the catalog and check, you will find the link of the PDF where you can
    open it by clicking the hyperlink. Let me know if you face any issues.

  • To use SRM Catalog from ECC

    Hi All,
    there is a way to use the SRM catalog from ECC system?
    Can I buy items from ECC system selecting them from SRM catalog?
    Thanks in advance.
    Antonio.

    Hi Antonio,
    If I have understood your question correctly - you are looking out to buy products within ECC system using SRM system
    If this is the case, you can do 2 things-
    1. You can replicate all ECC products to SRM and buy them from standard SRM shopping cart functionality; wherein a search functionality would be avaialable to find out a perticular replicated backend product. Regarding maintenance of prices for these products- you can use 'interlinkages' withing SRM. You can maintain separate price of different vendors for a same product using interlinkages.
    2. I am not sure about CCM but if SAP MDM is in your scope along with SRM, then you can replicate all ECC products as standard catalogs items to MDM from ECC. This would require XI as a middileware. Once replicated you can use these catalogs from buying purpose withing SRM
    Hope this helps you.
    Best Regards,
    Amit
