Release 2024.2

Release 2024.2 was released on 20th July 2024.

If you need help with the functions mentioned below, please contact us at support@mycatalogcloud.com

Technology Update

We have undertaken a significant technology update on several core frameworks, including Java, Angular and Database update. We also updated jQuery JavaScript library to the latest version.

These upgrades enhance security and stability, and they will also allow us to further expand our applications. We recommend to our customers to test their core functionality running on BeNeering Cloud. Impacted modules are:

  • Catalog Shopping and Cloud Forms connected via Punch-Out (OCI) to your procurement system (CSE)

  • Catalog Shopping and Cloud Forms connected to your SRM UI5 system (CSE)

  • Guided Buying (SHOP, SOURCING & PURCHASING) connecting your ERP/SRM systems (CSE)

  • Supplier Portal including Organization Management, Catalog Management, Sourcing and Ordering (DC4)

  • Buyer-Admin Portal including Organization Management, Catalog Management, Cloud Forms Editor and other system settings (DC4)

Our old catalog management solution Catalog Cloud Services (CCS) is on our retirement list, thus it was not updated.

New functions in Guided Buying

Product detail for catalog items updated to new material design

The look & feel of the product detail screen was updated to a modern design. Changes include: product description and attributes were moved to tabs, image gallery was improved, pricing widgets and icons were adjusted.

Download Purchase Order from SAP

To avoid going to SAP to download a Purchase Order document, it will be now possible to generate a PDF file directly from Guided Buying.

This function must be requested and adjusted according to your configuration in SAP.

Approval history

When multiple approvers were assigned to a document, after approval or rejection, document was no longer visible in the Inbox. Now it will be possible to see who approved or rejected a document.

This function will be available in the Inbox only to customers using the Central Workflow in Guided Buying.

Updated start page

Following our UI improvements, the widgets on Guided Buying start page got a refreshed design. Apart from design we also added new widgets on the start page:

  • user’s default settings:

    • default organization, e.g. company code, purchasing org, plant,

    • default delivery address,

    • default account assignment,

  • pending confirmations (user’s Purchase Requisitions missing goods receipt).

This function must be requested and adjusted according to your configuration in SAP. The old user settings dialog screen will be depreciated with next release in line 2024.3 and should be deactivated.

Copy line items for Additional data

Copy detail function has been enhanced to copy customer fields assigned in item sections.

This function must be requested and adjusted according to your configuration in SAP.

New search help design

Search help has received an updated look & feel. Thanks to these improvements it should be much easier to navigate. Search functions remain the same.

Update to the file uploader component in Dynamic Cloud Forms

It’s now possible to have more than one file uploader in your cloud forms. Using categories it is now more clear for users what type of document they should upload.

This function must be requested and new connector must be installed in your SAP instance for this feature to be available.

New functions in Buyer-Admin Portal

Catalog approval

We have migrated the catalog approval functionality to the new Buyer-Admin Portal (DC4). This means, from now on buyers can approve catalogs in same new portal where catalogs are managed.

This is another milestone in our transition from the old Catalog Cloud Services (CCS) Portal. User experience is greatly improved while the functionality remains familiar for CCS users.

This functionality will be released at a later date (TBD).

Additional languages available

We now support 6 languages on the supplier & admin portal

  • German

  • English

  • French

  • Chinese
