I think you are at least missing the add-on registration part:

  <suse_register>
    <addons config:type="list">
      <addon>
        <arch>x86_64</arch>
        <name>sle-module-server-applications</name>
        <version>15</version>
      </addon>
    </addons>
  ...
  </suse_register>

or add the local repos:

  <add-on>
    <add_on_products config:type="list">
      <listentry>
        <product>sle-module-basesystem</product>
        <media_url><![CDATA[your path to basesystem]]></media_url>
        <product_dir>/</product_dir>
      </listentry>
      <listentry>
        <product>sle-module-server-applications</product>
        <media_url><![CDATA[your path to server-applications]]></media_url>
        <product_dir>/</product_dir>
      </listentry>
    </add_on_products>
  </add-on>


Best wishes
Holger
