Validating Product Category on SC Trasfer from punch-out catalog

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have a requirement to validate Product Category of the shopping cart items transferred from punch-out catalog items. This requirement will allow us to put controls on vendors from publishing items that are not approved for their product category codes.

One way to achieve this is by adding validations in BAdI BBP_CATALOG_TRANSFER and maintaining valid vendor product categories in a custom table.

I tried to use the Extended Attributes in Org plan of Vendor. I tried testing with that in sandbox and did not seem to work.

Another option I can think of is to add attributes for ProductCategoryCode on Org plan of vendor and validate in BBP_CATALOG_TRANSFER instead of using custom tables.

Please let me the best way to achieve this.

Thanks,

Hi

We have done this long time back...

By using the combination of BADIs -

BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI and

BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI, this csn be done..

Read the relevant SAP documentation of these BADIs using SE18 Transaction, which will definitely help in coding the logic as per the business requirements..
