External catalog specifications for SAP E-commerce 5.0

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We want to integrate external catalog ( which is custom deveponed by our client.). Using OCI interface we want to use this custom based catalog, in place of SAP ISA TREX based catalog. In ISA settings I just see that I need to define the url for the external catalog. BUT this external catalog should confirm to certain rules, Please can someone guide me, what are these set of rules?

Please help, as this is a very critical bottle neck for our project.

Thanks in advance,

Dipender Singh

Hi Dipender,

The catalog must be OCI compliant in order o use it in conjunction with the SRM Server, compliance in a nutshell means that it will transmit it's return data in the format expected by SRM, the HOOK_URL will contain all the necessary parameters to transmit the HTML data into an expected an readable format for ICI INterface.

For more details please read the attached OCI Config doc.

Regards,

Jason
