call CCM from outside SRM

Former Member

Hello,

I'd like to know if anybody has tried to make a CCM call from outside SRM. I mean I suppose that if you pass the necessary parameters (technical user, pwd, or SSO language, catalog,...the same you need in the call structure) to the bsp you can enter. Has anybody tried to do this.

Obviously then it would be neccesary to remove funcionality for adding product to the SC, maybe a new bsp.

Any experience??

Thanks

best regards

Jorge: on my previous project, we called CCM directly from the SAP Portal (without going via SRM). I am sure you can do the same from any web application.

In our case, the Portal passed all the parameters to CCM. If you want to include parameters in the URL, it will look something like this:

http://<servername on which CSE is running>:<http Port of this server>/sap/bc/bsp/ccm/srm_cse/main.do?catalogid=<published catalog ID>&sap-client=<CSE client number>&sap-language=<interface language>&locale=<content language>

(You can also get some hints as to the URL composition if you right-click and display source for the CCM page when you log into CCM via SRM)

In addition, you'll obviously have to consider whether you'll call CCM in SSO or non-SSO mode.

We also created a custom bsp and a custom service - copies of standard bsp and service, but without unnecessary buttons.

Hi Zabrodski,

I hv a question for u?

Which statements pertaining to the OCI interface are correct?

the OCI interface ensures that, the EBP syst can access the catalog remotely.

is it rite or wrong?

This is a certification question.

I searched for the answer and found out that.

With the OCI, it is possible to integrate Service providers no matter wether they are located in the intranet or the internet.

What does remotely means here? I am bit confused.

thanking you in advance for ur input.

Hi All,

we are implementing CCM 2.0 standalone (without SRM) on Web AS 7.0 and TREX 7.0.

We have published a custom Procurement Catalog, but we have difficult to configure Catalog Search Engine.

When we call

...bsp/ccm/srm_cse/default.htm

Web AS system answer:

"The catalog search requires call parameters from the calling application. For information about calling the search from an SRM system see the Configuration Guide for Self-Service Procurement or SAP Solution Manager"

When we call ..bsp/ccm/srm_cse/main.do with following parameters:

SAP-CLIENT (001)

CATALOGID (<customCatId>)

SAP-LANGUAGE (EN)

ccm-user (<customUser>)

ccm-password (<***>)

locale (EN)

Web AS system answer:

"Your session has timed out - call up SAP Catalog Search Engine again in SRM "

When we call ...bsp/ccm/srm_cse/tmp_entry.htm

Catalog ID select option is empty (Maybe Catalog is working wrong?).

What could be reason? Any suggestions?

Best Reg.,

Hi Gerardo,

We have upgraded SRM 5.0 to SRM 7.0.

WE have CCM on the same server and when we try to integrate and test we are getting same error as you got.

Can you please share the solution.

When we call

...bsp/ccm/srm_cse/default.htm

Error:"The catalog search requires call parameters from the calling application. For information about calling the search from an SRM system see the Configuration Guide for Self-Service Procurement or SAP Solution Manager"

When we call ..bsp/ccm/srm_cse/main.do with following parameters:

SAP-CLIENT (001)

CATALOGID (<customCatId>)

SAP-LANGUAGE (EN)

ccm-user (<customUser>)

ccm-password (<***>)

locale (EN)

Error:

"Your session has timed out - call up SAP Catalog Search Engine again in SRM "

Thanks Yann,

I'd also like to know how I can make the correct URL to enter in my CCM. I know that the controller URL is

http://........../sap/bc/ccm/srm_cse/main.do

but I'd like to know how I can pass the parameters and which parameters I have to pass (catalog name, language, user, pwd) I mean how I replace the call structure.

Thanks again

Best regards
