RMFCS Foundation Data Import Enhancements

OAuth Web Service Authentication: With this update, OAuth web service authentication is supported for communication through Oracle Retail Merchandising Foundation Cloud Service (RMFCS) to import Merchandise Hierarchy, Items/Sku, Price, and Image information.

OAuth support is available with RMFCS application version 21.0 or above.  Older versions will continue to support Basic authentication with Omnichannel Cloud Data Service (OCDS).

Pricing Import: With this update, Order Management System requests price changes from RMFCS using multiple endpoints instead of calling a single endpoint multiple times when the OCDSITM periodic function is run.

If your company is configured for OAuth authentication, the following system control values can be populated to send a request for each new price or price change:

• OCDS Initial Item Price URL (M48)

  Note:

  With this update, the name of this system control value was changed from OCDS Item Price URL to OCDS Initial Item Price URL.

• OCDS Regular Item Price URL (M68)

• OCDS Clearance Item Price URL (M69)

If your company is configured for Basic authentication, only the OCDS Initial Item Price URL (M48) needs to be populated. The others are not used.

If the OCDS Initial Price URL (M48) system control value is populated, no changes take place automatically. You need to manually switch the OCDS Service to OAuth (WWSA) and populate the two new system control values.

The price URLs need to specify a version of 2, for example: https://server.com:1234/ords/ocds/omnichannel/v2/item/price/regular. See the online help for details.
