Use

  • Type 0 (URL)

    URL used to access the catalog.

    Example for a catalog URL:

    http://catalogsap.catalog.com/NetClient/cgi-win/wincgi.exe

  • Type 1 (SAP field)

    SAP fields are also permitted as single parameters during the catalog call. If, for example, a username has to be transferred, you can enter SY-UNAME in the Contents field. The system then automatically fills the parameter with the username.

  • Type 2 (fixed value)

    If the parameter always has a fixed value, enter type 2.

    Example:

    The parameter REQTYPE should always contain LOGIN.

  • Type 3 (field from service)

    Special fixed value parameter within the service of the catalog application. This type is dealt with analogous to type 2 when the catalog is called.

  • Type 4 (return URL)

    The name of the return URL is dependent on the catalog. You must not fill the Contents field since this field is determined dynamically and transferred when the catalog is called.

    Exmaple:

    The name for the SAP product catalog is MM_HOOK_URL.

Note

You have to maintain all catalog-specific call parameters before the entry with type 4. The four named SAP internal parameters have to follow the entry with type 4:

Name    Contents    Type

HOOK_URL        4

~OkCode    ADDI    2

~Target    _top    2

~ForceTarget    Yes    2

~caller    CTLG    2

The return URL is transferred in encrypted form.
