Additional fields for customer creation and/or custom mapping (CCO/B1)

[JoergAldinger]

Hello CCO experts,

We would like to enable the creation of new customers in CCO, but due to fiscal requirements we need to capture an additional field and map that to a UDF in B1.

Is it possible to:

1. Add a new field to the customer creation form in CCO, and
2. Map that new field (or one of the existing ones, if 1. is not possible) to a UDF in B1 for customer creation?

My understanding is that customer creation is done using a REST call to B1i, but I am not sure if the MaintainBPPre scenario is called during that creation. Would that be the right scenario to modify?

Thanks,

Joerg.

Hello joerg.ceo,

did you solve this question? I am trying to do the same.

Hello esti_martin,

It may be solvable, but we have decided to use some of the fields already visible ("address 2", "address 3") to capture our data, and then we mapped it to the required fields in B1 using a custom integration scenario.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,

Joerg.

Hi Joerg,

perhaps we try the same optio. It seems easier than what i see about using a plugin for these fields.

Thanks,

Esti.

Hello Ricardo:

I tried that but it seems to be only for the search dialog (as it says), not for the creation form.

Hi joerg.ceo

I haven´t worked with the Kiosk mode but I think you should enable the user fields in Dialog settings > Customer search dialog settings (switch On the column Visible)

Anyone on this?

Thanks,

Joerg.

Thank you Ricardo, that confirms the 2nd part of my question. But I can't see where I could enable the new field(s) for the customer creation form (in quick service mode):

Any idea for that?

Thanks!

Joerg.

Hello Joerg,

to map customer data from CCO to B1 you need to create a scenario that takes the UDF from CCO (for example UDFString1) and map it to B1, and afterwards asociate the scenario to the extension point sap.POS.MaintainBP_PreProcessing.
