Vendor articles

Good Day,

We would like to put about 5000 vendor articles on our website to sell.

We would only like to create these articles in the system once it is sold to a customer.

Is there any way to update master data at the time of sale instead of maintain 5000 articles before hand?

Regards

Lindsay

Hi Lindsay:


Well, the articles have to exist in some system before appearing on the Web site, right?


One scenario would be to bring the items into SAP Retail via standard PRICAT funtionality. They are not Articles yet, but they would be available to be searched. There is functionality called Enhanced Material (Article) Search with Article Creation that can enable searching for an Article (that exists in a Price Catalog or as an Article) while in a sales order or purchase order, with the ability to create an article on the fly from the PRICAT search results.

The above is a paragraph, but would represent a great deal of effort.
