SRM - Shopping cart creation via inbound interface

[Former Member]

Hello SRM people,

I would like to request your help for an interface on which I'm working.

We have an SRM system here for shopping cart creation, using catalogs in MDM.

I have searched in some discussion but did not find clear answer about my concern.

We will have to create a SP from an inbound interface with a legacy system.

We receive some incoming data (file, xml,..) and then we'll have to create the SP based on this interface,

which will contain header and items data.

I tried to find the best way to do it using SAP standard functions but I have some doubts.

1) I had information from a colleague that the bapi should not be used because it is obsolete/ non working fine

==> Do you know if this is correct and so that bapi should not be used ?

2) I saw posts recommending to use function as BBP_PD_SC_CREATE.

==> Have some of you already used that or knows if it could work ?

3) Another colleague told me that we have to used classes  /SAPSRM/CL_PDO_BO_SC_ADV and /SAPSRM/CL_PDO_BO_SC in our specific program to create the SP

==> Is this better than the use of function as BBP_PD_SC_CREATE for example ?

Thanks for your advices,

S.N

Hi,

functions were valid until SRM 6.0 (there was only way to create the shopping cart).

For SRM 7.0+ I would recomment use classes, functions still should work fine, but do not support most modern features, like service hierarchies etc.

Please check this blogs:
