## Key Features

* **CSM Catalog Page:** Acts as the landing page for catalog items on the portals. Accessible via Service Portal \> Pages, it displays all service catalog items.
* **CSM Catalog Item Widget:** Manages redirection after catalog item submissions and integrates the default catalog item widget. It utilizes event handling to determine redirection based on the catalog portal URL and request parameters.
* **Page Route Map:** Essential for new Service Portals, this map ensures correct URL redirects to the Case ticket page based on the logic defined in the CSM Catalog Item widget.
* **Portal Settings for Catalog Items:** Administrators can control the visibility of the Submit/Add to Cart button and other fields for specific catalog items through the Maintain Items interface.

## Key Outcomes

By integrating the service catalog with the Customer and Consumer Service Portals, organizations can efficiently manage service requests. The control over item visibility and submission processes enhances user experience and ensures streamlined operations for catalog items.  
Users with the customer administrator role (sn_customerservice.customer_admin) can
associate a portal with a service catalog.
The following catalog pages and widgets are provided as part of the Customer Service with
Request Management integration.

For more information, see [Associate a portal with a
catalog](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=associate-portal-catalog&version=australia&pubname=australia-platform-user-interface&ft:locale=en-US).

## CSM Catalog page {#service-catalog-request-integration__section_akh_ghm_cmb}

The CSM Catalog page is the display page for catalog items on the Customer and Consumer Service Portals. This page serves as the landing page for any service catalog item exposed on a CSM portal. All request items exposed on the CSM portals are either service catalog items or service catalog record producers. Navigate to Service PortalPages to view this page.

* Page ID: csm_sc_cat_item
* Update name: sp_page_7ea80b123bb31300bfe04d72f3efc4b7
* Available to roles: snc_internal, snc_external
{#service-catalog-request-integration__ul_nlh_rbj_3gb}

## CSM Catalog Item widget {#service-catalog-request-integration__section_pdr_lhm_cmb}

This widget handles the redirection logic on submission of the catalog item and embeds the default catalog item widget. This widget listens to event $sp.sc_cat_item.submitted. On submission of a catalog item, it handles the portal redirection logic based on the page_id and the catalog portal URL. When there's no parent set in the Requests (sc_request) table, the URL is redirected to the default service portal ticket page. If a record producer has a redirect URL, this widget uses the redirect URL from the record producer instead of redirecting to the ticket page.

* Widget ID: csm-sc-cat-item
* Update name: sp_widget_ec837c713bbb1300bfe04d72f3efc4d1
* Available to roles: snc_internal, snc_external
{#service-catalog-request-integration__ul_cdg_sdj_3gb}

## Page route map {#service-catalog-request-integration__section_byb_phm_cmb}

It's important to set up a page route map for any new Service Portals to handle the redirection to the Case ticket page. The redirection is based on the logic described in the CSM Catalog Item widget.

* CSM Catalog item page route map: For the Customer Service Portal, this page route map routes the URL redirect from the sc_cat_item page to the csm_sc_cat_item page.
* CSP Catalog item page route map: For the Consumer Service Portal, this page route map routes the URL redirect from the sc_cat_item page to the csm_sc_cat_item page.
