Not able to Login to Punchout Catalogs from SRM 7 portal

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We are upgrading from SRM5.0 to SRM7.0.

We have 2 development boxes each for SRM5 and SRM7.

The problem is Vendor Pucnhout URLs are not opening from SRM7 portal. It opens the login screen asking userid/password.

I have compared the IMG activity (Define External Web Services (Catalogs, Vendor Lists etc.)) (The maintenance screen for general product catalog data ) . The User id and password are set same in SRM5 and SRM7.

When I apply the userid/password (that is set under IMG) on the punchout site opened from portal, then the vendors site is not accepting it.

Do we need to have different userid/password to make punchout catalogs working from SRM7?

if yes, how can that be done?

Thanks,

Chandu

The punchout URLs are working after enabling third party cookies.

Path for IE is

Tools-> Internet options-> Privacy-> Settings-Advanced -> Third_party Cookies-accept

Firefox

Tools-> Options-> Privacy->Accept Third Party Cookies

Hi,

Is the logon screen from vendor site or SAP NetWeaver?

What is the test result when you type the URL with logon parameters directly in browser?

http://<external_vendor>:<port>/<somename>?username=User5&password=password5

It is external vendor site, I can open it from our SRM5 ITS - shop wizard . But the same link when accessed from SRM 7 portal it is asking user-id/passwrod. When I applied the id/password set in IMG, then also it did not take me in
