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.

Hi Mandy,
You can do this:
On the MDM Console, right click on the Repository -> Properties -> PDF -> Allow invalid PDFs -> Yes .
Alternatively,
You can also find some information about it on https://service.sap.com/srm within this link on the left frame go into
mySAP Supplier Relationship Mgmt --> mySAP SRM in Detail --> SRM 5.0 --> Catalog Content Management --> SRM-MDM Catalog and you will get the document.

SRM MDM Catalog Multiple Imgae (field) display in UI

Hi MDMers,
I have configured the SRM-MDM Catalog and I had done Import data, mapping data, OCI, SRM call structure and UI settings. Everything works fine when we call the Catalog in SRM.
My SRM -MDM Catalog needs certain custom fields which should hold some Button indicator for item classification (Red, Amber, and Green)
Already we used MDMSRM_IMAGE field to have pictures of Item and mapped in Display view in UI manager.
I tried one more custom field for the Image to hold this buttons (.gif file) but unfortunately it is not bringing the indictor images, just place holder is exist without indicator image.
Could you please help me and give some work around solution to bring that Button Indicator in My Catalog view for each item.
Please light up something on TEXT HTML, TEXT BLOCK, HYPERLINK and mime type
Is it possible to have the .gif Image by using above functionality? If so please guide mates.
Regards
Edwin

Hi Tam,
I have tried to set up hyperlink for my images in SRM-MDM catalog.But no luck.
1. My MIME Type is GIF.
2. My url is
http://fssomsdits01.forensic.gov.uk/eMerge/images
The URL path contains my Images file like GREEN.GIF and RED.GIF
Where I have to display the 2 images according to the catalog Item.
As per forum discussion I tried the steps.
I declared the MIME Type & Hyperlink type (rendered) in Look up table.
I have mapped the fields in Catalog item table for MIME Type<hyper link> & URL<hyper Link> and Hyper Link.
The data is just replicating in DATA manager, but not displaying in UI as image.
Please can you help me to sort it out?
Just explain me how to enable the Hyperlink field to line item.
The steps to import thre Mime type/hyperlinku2026look up table and Qualified table.
Regards
Edwin

MDMGX - SRM MDM Catalog

Dear MDM Guru's,
I am new to SRM MDM catalog scenario. Need Data flow steps from SRM and ECC to SRM-MDM Catalog Repository by using MDMGX and MDM_CLNT_EXTR transaction.
For Example : Please provide information in below format.
Currencies from SRM and ECC to SRM MDM Repository
Product Groups from SRM and ECC to SRM MDM Repository
Points will be awarded for useful answers. Please help.

Hi Jacob,
Please find the documents below:

MDM_CLNT_EXTR is used to extract main table information.It bacically extracts data in IDOC format so PI is required to convert IDOC format into XML format before sending data to MDM.
Below is the article on MDM_CLNT_EXTR:

SRM MDM CATALOG

Hello
I am implementing SRM 5.0 with SRM MDM catalog and I have some doubts.
How can I create catalogs and publish it for users in SRM?
The catalogs are created in SRM accessing MDM catlog or only in MDM. ?
Thanks
Nilson

>Hi
>So, If I want to crate create and publish catalos manualy I can use this >webdympro?
.How can access this webdympro?
>Thanks
Man, you really should read my post... you don't "publish" catalogs with MDM. You setup a "repository" and load it. You do this with CONSOLE. With the DATAMANAGER or IMPORTMANAGER you can maintain repository data. The MDM SERVER 5.5 is accessed through a url that you define in your catalog call structure. If you have any more questions, I will help you out.

Error replicating customizing data to the repository (SRM MDM Catalog)

Hi Folks,
I am currently configuring SRM MDM catalog, and one of the initial steps is to replicate data from SRM to the repository.
After defining repositories and FTP servers, I am running step "start extraction".
Well, the result page prompts me for errors in the 3 different files it is trying to replicate:
Report Statistics

Number of records :
Currencies 195

cd "/SRM_MDM_Catalog/Inbound/SSD_120/LT_Currencies/Ready/"
250 CWD command successful.

The otehr 2 errors are the of the same type, just of different XML file.

What am I missing?
thanks a lot a happy holidays!

Hello Priti,
For accessing the catalog, you have to define the external webservice with the config parameters in SRM System under transaction "SPRO"
Please refer the SRM-MDM Catalog configuration guide.
Hope this will help you.

Is use of flat file in SRM-MDM catalog search UI possible ?

Hello,
When user looks for materials inside SRM-MDM catalog (using search user interface), search is done manually with free form or drill down search.
Then, among the search result, user has to select items he wants to add to his shopping cart and finally transfer those items from his shopping cart overview inside SRM.
Is it possible to automate this user selection using for exemple a flat file uploading (or any other way you could know) ?
This flat file will have material number (or service), supplier code and quantity (no more information).
The aim of the request is to help requester to not have to select each item one by one (in the search result) knowing that :
- SC will have more than a hundred items,
- delivery time and price (for example) must be checked in MDM, being the master data reference
- materials (or service) to order are received by requester via a flat file without any information about prices, so i cannot upload my flat file directly into SRM because file missing data must come from MDM.
With this process, user should have only to transfer items automatically selected.
Could you please share your advises ?
We use SAP MDM 5.5.
Regards.
Laurent.

Hello Masa,
Masayuki Sekihara wrote:
A vendor look at buyer stock information like VMI and fill stock weekly base. So the vendor sends material number and quantity information as flat file to buyer. Buyer should create SC from flat file and price information should fetch from catalog.
Yes, your are correct: example you gave corresponds to process for my SC uploading.

Laurent.

MDM catalogs to be used for PM-SRM scenario

Hello All,
We are in a situation where we are using the SRM-MDM scenario for regular shopping carts. And also would like to leverage these MDM catalogs for purchases made in ECC Plant Maintenance "work Orders" for non-stock ECC material numbers maintained in ECC.
These material numbers in ECC will have a Manufacturing Part Nmber (MPN) in the material master data.
Since we had some difficulty connecting these SRM-MDM catalogs directly to the ECC work order we would like to bring these requisitions generated by "Work Orders" and push them to SRM. (Standard SAP)
Once these Requisitions come into SRM as SC.. the system automatically approves this SC (Which is standard SAP) but in this process we would like to know if there is a way the system can automatically make a call to MDM based on the Manufacturing Part Number (MPN) and bring in the price and the vendor details back to the SC automatically.
Currently we are using SRM 6.0 and MDM 2.0 in our landscape..
Any suggestions will be appreciated and rewarded..
Regards

How to use the Masks in SRM-MDM catalog?

Hi Expert,
We are at SRM-MDM catalog 3.0.
There have two types of SRM contracts were transferd to one MDM catalog repository, and we config two different number range for these contract types. We will creat two web services in SRM IMG, only the same number ramge of the contracts could diaplay in one web service.
As this requirement, may be the MDM function Masks could be a solution I think. But when I try to separate the contracts with two masks in MDM Data Manager, I have no idea that how could I set the key filter with the contract number fields.
Could every expert tell me how could i set the Masks as this situation?

Hi
Have you assigned the masks created in data manager to some role in Console(Console-Roles TableRole1-Table and fields tabMask--add Mask 1 say)
Once the mask is assigned to the role then only the role can see records pertaining to that mask else it can see all the records in the repository.

SRM MDM Catalog (Subscreen Error)

Hi,
I am facing an issue with the SRM MDM catalog.
We are currently implementing SRM-MDM catalog 1.0 SP1 Patch01 HF1.
Our MDM server version is MDM 5.5 SP5 Patch02 HF1.
The steps while creating a Shopping Cart are as follows:
- Log into SRM Shopping Screen.
- Select the SRM MDM Catalog
- Inside the SRM MDM catalog select an item and click on the shopping basket to add the item to the shopping cart.
- Once I click on the shopping basket we are getting the below error
Error when processing your request
What has happened?
The URL http://mb1es1001.idcsap.com:8000/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/bbpsc01/ was not called due to an error.
Note
The following error text was processed in the system SR6 : Subscreen not found

If the termination type was ABORT_MESSAGE_STATE, then you can find more information on the cause of the termination on the application server MB1ES1001_SR6_00 in transaction SM21.
If the termination type was ERROR_MESSAGE_STATE, then you can search for more information in the trace file for the work process 1 in transaction ST11 on the application server MB1ES1001_SR6_00 . In some situations, you may also need to analyze the trace files of other work processes.

User name and password mainatined in MDM console is case sensitive.I would suggest you to follow this step
1.In MDM Console for User1 enter password as user1(note that password is all small case)
2.Ensure that you enter the password in similar manner in defining OCI.

Unable to add Item to Shopping Cart in SRM-MDM Catalog

Hi Guys,
I am using SRM-MDM Catalog 3.0, MDM 7.1 and SRM 7.0. I have done all the configurations in SRM as well as in Portal like External Web Service creation, Assigning Catalog in Organisational Plan, UI Config and OCI mapping.
I am able to see catalog on SRM-MDM web dynpro UI; however I am not able to select any item in the Catalog (the Checkbox is grayed out) and also I am not able to change the Quantity of any Item (by default it is 1). The Action column is also blank for all the items.
In the Catalog, both Select and Quantity Columns are in disabled mode. I am not able to edit their values.
I have tried all options in UI Config but no luck. Request you to please suggest if something needs to be done with the Config or I need to apply some SAP note.

Varun
