In version 10 of SAP Sourcing, can we create a webservice that pulls information from ECC MM and displays it in a Desktop Channel?

Hi Katie,

The Release 10.0 Web Service Framework (standard functionality) only supports the creation of custom web services that are provided by Sourcing/CLM that can be called by an external application (i.e., inbound web services).

So for your requirement there are 2 ways to go about it:

1.  ECC MM would need to make a web service call to the 10.0 Sourcing/CLM Web Service Framework where there is a custom developed script-based web service waiting for that call.

OR

2. You can develop a custom .jar file deployed on the Sourcing/CLM app server which would make a web service call to an ECC MM web service.  ECC MM would need to have a web service waiting for the call.

In either scenario, there is custom code that needs to be developed.
