Inserting a WD application(FORM) in the SC creation process

[former_member184111]

Hi Experts,

There are a few catalog items for which lot of additional information is required. Since there are many different catalogs and each one has different set of additional fields, we can not implement this as Z fields in the shopping cart.

We thought of developing custom forms using WDA, which the user must fill while adding any such item to the shopping cart.

The question is WHERE and HOW to hook these forms in the item addition process, in the SC creation process?

Please advice.

Thanks,

Anubhav

Hi,

Are additional fields required for PO?

I know catalog has many additional fields for search purpose but most of them are not required for PO.

If those fields are required just for SC approval, you can use OCI catalog detail function.

Hi Masa,

The requierment is to enable the user to enter additional information for a catalog item while creating a shopping cart. For exg. while ordering a Rubber Stamp or flowers etc.

Yes the text needs to be transfered to PR and PO.

Where and how can we insert the custom web form developed in WD, while creation or ordering the SC so that this data is transfered to BE ?

Hope the requierment is clear.

Many Thanks,

Anubhav

Hi,

I would use one of text schema. For example, Supplier Text or Internal Note.

No development is required for this.

Please check customizing.

SRM -> SRM Server -> Cross-Application Basic Settings -> Text Schema

Hi,

Forms can easily be defined as a webservice. The coding within the form should contain mapping of form-fields to OCI-fields, so that the data is correctly transferred from the form to the shopping cart. I designed a toolkit (CIBER Flexible Purchasing Forms) in which these forms can easily be created. Within this toolkit, all logic is available to transfer data to the shopping cart (with a BSP).

Kind regards,
