More than one sales area at 1 catalog

[Private_Member_321544]

Hi SDN,

We have ecommerce 7.0 for SAP R/3.

We have 1 product catalog at the SAP-system. This product catalog contains articles out of 6 different sales areas. In my case 7000 / 90 / 90, 7000 / 90 / 91, 7000 / 90 / 92, 7000 / 90 / 93, 7000 / 90 / 94, 7000 / 90 / 95. This product catalog couln't be changed because we have an import program for this and wouln't change that. There is no possibility to make 6 catalogs. It must be this one.

The customers for this shop will have different sales areas:

7000 / 90 / 90, 7000 / 90 / 91, 7000 / 90 / 92, 7000 / 90 / 93, 7000 / 90 / 94, 7000 / 90 / 95

Each customer will have only one of this sales areas. Never 2 or more.

My problem is, the SAP-Catalog only supports one sales area (Trx WWM1). If i set the sales area of the catalog to 7000 / 90 / 90, then only customers with sales area 7000 / 90 / 90 can login to the eshop. If a customer has the sales area 7000 / 90 / 91 he couldn't login to the eshop.

I've already tryed to set the catalog sales area to an overall area 7000 / 99 / 99. But this worked not. If i set this, the customer needs that overall sales area too. The shop do not support overall sales areas.

How can i solv this problem? Can you help me please?

Is there some customizing for the SAP-catalog possible to support more than one sales area?

Or some customizing possible at the eshop?

IMPORTANT: We don't have CRM. We have a SAP R/3 (ECC6.0). Please do not give answers for CRM solutions.

Thanks and best regards,

Toni

Hi Tony,

If it is R/3 backend you are creating your catalog on WWM1. Try to assign a a Cross Division "00" to the catalog and add products from different Sales Areas.

Do not forget to modify the Sales Area in the ShopAdmin > Transactions.

Kind Regards,

Felix.

Hi Felix,

Thanks for your answer.

This was the first thing which i've tryed. The shop do not support cross divisions, therefore that is not working. If you enter a cross division to katalog/shopadmin, the user must have this cross division too.

Best regards,

Toni

An additional question: What is sales area bundeling? Can you explain me that please? Could that be the solution for my problem?
