Product Category not transferred from CCM 1.0 to Shopping Cart

[former_member184214]

Hello all,

I have a problem where user choose item from integrated SAP catalog CCM 1.0 and add it to the shopping cart (EBP is 5.0).

When SC is displayed Category is different than in catalog.

I have only one backend (R/3 4.7) working in classic scenario.

During testing I copied material groups several times from the same backend with TCode R3AS but using FM BBP_CATEGORY_GET_GUID I checked that I have only one GUID per product grup in EBP.

User does not have default category.

In OrgStructure > Extended Attributes there is no limit on Product Categories ("*" for backend system). In this case EBP is always using alphabetically the first listed category.

If I list categories in Extended Atributes, system always use the first listed and not the proper one from the catalog.

Implementing suggestion in note 847229 "OCI data passed from CCM/SAP Catalog" I found out that catalog is not sending any information about categories.

Schemas in Catalog (Supplier, Master, Procurement catalog) are created with UNSPSC and master gropus for the backend are also UNSPSC and they are transferred to EBP.

Hi Gordan Flego,

As i understand that You have in SRM UNSPSC code same an CCM, right. Pls check you have done OCI mapping correct, Debug thru BBP_CATALOG_TRANSFER BADI and see where it is missing.

If SRM UNSPSC code is not same as CCM, then you need to map in BBP_CATALOG_TRANSFER BADI implementation.

Thanks,

Jay

I did not activate any BADI to transfer additional catalog data to shopping card.

Does that mean that I need to implement BADI to transfer product category from catalog to shopping cart? I was hoping that I do not need to activate BADIs if I use only UNSPSC as product groups.

If that is true I will be very grateful to you if you can provide me example code.

Hi Gordan,

The category is transfered from CCM to SRM through OCI field NEW_ITEM-MATGRP. Check in CCM the category characteristic is correctly mapped to this OCI fied (in the characteristic definition).

After the change you have to re-publish the catalog.

To check if the data are sent into the OCI, you can debug the transfer putting a break point in the transfer BADI.

Regards.

Hello Vadim,

I should be now red due to the mistake that I made in catalog files.

In file for Supplier Catalog I did not include /ccm/product_group. After I did it everything went OK. I was thinking that CategoryID is enough. :blush:

Your answer pointed me to right direction.

Gordan

P.S. Instead of inserting breakpoints you can use procedure explained in note 847229 "OCI data passed from CCM/SRM"
