Two catalogs <-> two repositories ?

[Former Member]

Hello gurus!!!

I would like to ask you one question, please...

This is my first MDM SRM Catalog 3.0 implementation...and I have many doubts...

In my client, we have to load two differents catalogs,....Should I mount two different repositories in the MDM Console??

Thank you so much in advance,

Best regards,

María.

Hi María,

You can go in either ways, it all depends on your requirement. If your data for two catalogs does not differ much you can go with a single repository by creating two webservices using named searches else can also go for two repositories if you want to show one catalog for Product and other for Service etc repository. So it all depends on your requirement (fields , data etc) which you want to publish on these two catalogs separately.

Hi Maria.

I'm not getting your question. What is your requirment to have 2 catalogs?

Are you splitting catalog by any criteria? i.e Catalog for specific Country, Catalog for specific Product Category

If yes, then you can achieve this by having a single repository and create named search for it.

Then you can webservice ids by launching two catalog for it.

Hi,

I agree with Chander. If your requirement is to create separate catalogs based on supplier or product category or any field value, then you can store data in one MDM repository. You can define restrictions using named searches/masks and then can define different web services in SRM system using these Masks/Named searches constraints.

In this way you can achieive multiple catalogs based on same repository.
