How to configure an OCI Catalog for Purchasing in ECC MM 6.0

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I was told that it's possible to configure an OCI Catalog for the Purchasing process of ECC MM 6.0.

This way we would be able to access an external Catalog when creating Purchasing Requisitions (ME51N) or Purchase Orders (ME21N).

I searched the SDN forums, SAP Notes and the web for guides of how to implement the external OCI Catalog, but I found nothing.

Anyone knows how to do that configuration?

Any help will be very much appreciated.

Best regards,

José Omar

Its not possible to configure OCI Catalog with Standard MM Purchasing unless you do some crappy custom development.

SAP SRM is the only solution to use Catalogs for Purchasing.
