Hi,

In SRM configuration, we have to define catalog call parameters like

URL (URL of vendor website which authenticates logon)

username (username to enter as Login)

password (password to authenticate login credentials)

HOOK_URL (Return URL)

There are some more parameters can be entered as per catalogs. We have an option to use HTTP GET to call web service too.

Thanks,

Hi Anshuk,

Is the issue that the logon is not working in this case ? If so please explain exactly what is happening when the catalog link is clicked ?

Or is it that you need to understand how the logon happens ?

Kind Regards,

Lisa

Hi,

You can find the Catalogs Call Structure within the SPRO customizing setttings if you were not sure of this:

-> SPRO

-> Supplier Relationship Management

-> SRM Server

-> Master Data

-> Define External Web Services..

Then in here you will see the list of catalogs. It will be either in the Standard Call Structure or the Integrated Call Structure.

I hope this helps,

Lisa

Hi,

In the catalogs call structure you have the option to enter the following fields:

Username

Password

These are then passed to the catalog application and are used to log in.

I hope this helps,

hi lisa,

ur answer helped a lot here is my next question,

I have changed the method to GET instead of POST . and right now SAP SRM is able to login to my Catalog application.

Hi,

What SRM release are you using to access the catalog ? If it is SRM 7.0 the following notes may be helpful:

1382080: HTTP Get is not supported while launching catalog

1287412: Prerequisites for OCI integration in SRM 7.0

If these are of no help, please advise me on what exactly is happening to the HOOK_URL. Is it missing data, does it have unnecessary data etc.

Kind Regards,

Lisa
