Portal Advanced Search – default business object

[Former Member]

Within the Shopping Area for Employee Self Services, apart from changing the Application Parameter in the Advanced Search iView, does anyone know if there is a way of configuring the Advanced Search in the backend of SRM to default to u2018Shopping Cartu2019 instead of u2018Conformationu2019?

Thanks

Hello,

You can change the drop down default following the steps below:

Go to the Content Administration tab (by logging in as portal administrator) and search for IView u201CAdvanced Searchu201D. Select the Advanced Search IView and right click and click on Open -> Object. Modify the Application parameter URL containing sapsrm_botype=BUS2203. Change that value to sapsrm_botype=BUS2121 for shopping carts, for example.

Hello,

I just wanted to further clarify Ricardo's reply. In our system there are two iViews for Advanced Search:

pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/specialist/com.sap.pct.srm.srm70/com.sap.pct.srm.com.fl_common/com.sap.pct.srm.com.fl_iviews/com.sap.pct.srm.core.iv_advancedsearch_old

pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/specialist/com.sap.pct.srm.srm70/com.sap.pct.srm.com.fl_common/com.sap.pct.srm.com.fl_iviews/com.sap.pct.srm.core.iv_advancedsearch

For some reason, at least in our system, changing the parameters for advancedsearch_old solved the problem for us.

Hi,

if you are using portal-independant navigation you can do the following.

Go to the corresponding PFCG role and open it in edit mode. On the tab "Menu" click on "Advanced Search" (normally found directly below "Home"). Call the context menu using the right mouse button and click on "Details". For the parameter SAPSRM_BOTYPE change the default value BUS2203 (Confirmation) to the business object you want to use as a default, e.g. BUS2121 for Shopping Cart. Then save the role.

If this doesn't work make sure that the user in question doesn't have other roles overriding this setting.

Best regards,

Marcus
