Importing a price table

If you want to use recurring fees defined in an SAP CRM system, you must import the mapping table class called "price table" from the installation directory to your database. The format of the price table is XML.

Note that only one version of a mapping table class exists in the database because a mapping table class cannot be modified once it has been saved to the database. You can import the unique version of the price table into SAP CC Core Tool.

Use the following procedures to customize the template of the price table and then import your price table.

To customize the template of the price table

An XML template is provided to help you to create your price table.

  1. Open the XML file price_table.xml from the installation directory of your Core Tool (core_tool_install\templates).

  2. Replace ${owner} by the name of your catalog.

  3. Save and then close the XML file.

To import the price table

  1. From the menu bar in the main window, select File > Import. The Open dialog box opens.

  2. Open the directory in which the price table is saved, and then select the price_table.xml file.

  3. Click Open. The Import Objects dialog box opens.

  4. Leave the default All versions option selected because there is only one version for the price table.

  1. Click Import.

Notes:

  • You can import a price table only once because one price table at most can be stored in the Core Database. If you want to change your price table, you must delete it and then import another price table.

  • The price table is a mapping table class. To open, export, delete a price table, and so on, refer to the related topics listed in the mapping table class section.
