In the console->help , I have seen the version , and [7.1.00.75], does this mean something ? pls exp.
Please share your thoughts
Thanks,

Hi Veena,
Current MDM version available is MDM 7.1 SP05.
Scheduled upcoming MDM version as per my understanding would be MDM 7.2 not MDM 7.3
In console help, you can check the build number of MDM.
1st four characters tells about the version and Support package and last three letters are not exactly Patch.
It means that you are on MDM 7.1 SP00
Yes, you can download it from Service Market Place if you have access and right to download MDM.
Please refer similar thread to check path to download MDM : How to get MDM 7.1? Please tell me the download link.
Also check this link where you can get everything about MDM 7.1, Please refer MDM upgrade guide which you need to follow. https://websmp103.sap-ag.de/installMDM71
@ Deepak, See i am using MDM Server Build (7.1.03.69) that does not mean i am using Patch 69,
You can check [SAP Note 1425021|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1425021] where Patch is 19 not 69

Creation of Product in MDM version 3.0

Hi All ,
Its Raja Singh presently working on SAP-MDM version 3.0. We have a client who wants to replace their master data system to SAP-MDM prefebly.
In view of this i wanted to show them how a Proudct/Business partner will be created in SAP MDM.
AS I am able to create Buiness partner and change master using transaction codes but i unable to do so for PRODUCT as i don't know the T-Code for the same.
Do i need some setting to have t-code for creation of PRODUCT.
When I am using t-code commpr1 , it says " This T-code is locked in MDM use portal".
Can anyone guide me how to proceed step by step for creation of Product in MDM. you can Email me also relevent document at [email protected]
In A Positive Anticipation
Thanks
Raja

Hi Raja,
I didn't quite understand what you mean by creating/changing data using transaction codes, because within SAP MDM 3.0 you are in a portal environnment and don't work with transaction codes.
General remark: Information on the up-to-date MDM 5.5 is provided in the Service Marketplace. For an overview of MDM 5.5, see also http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/mdm/capabilities provided with sap mdm 5.5.pdf.

In MDM Data Manager, make sure the Workflows table is the current table. In the Records pane, select any workflow record.
In the Record Detail tab, then double-click on the Workflow property to open Microsoft Visio. Choose Tools > Options from the Visio main menu.Choose File Paths to open the File Paths dialog. In the File Paths dialog, set both Add-Ons and Start-Up to the folder where the Worklfow.vsl file is installed (the Data Manager installation folder, by default).

Which is the Latest version to be released after SAP MDM 7.1 version ?

Can any body give me the details about the latest version to be released after SAP MDM 7.1?
Thanks & Regards,
Krishna ..

Hi Krishna,
as far as i know MDM 7.1 general versions for user is still about to come.
but With SAP NetWeaver Master Data Management 7.1, SAP has enhanced the MDM technology foundation to build pre-packaged business scenarios and integration. This SAP NetWeaver MDM release has been in ramp-up shipment since the end of November 2008.
But for 7.1 some highlights are
Extended flexibility for data modeling and support for complex objects
Higher performance and improved inbound and outbound processing e.g. through native MDM adapter for SAP NetWeaver Process Integration
Enhanced integration into SAP NetWeaver standard administration and life-cycle components
after successful Operation with this I guess new release will mess up.
Hope it helps.

Upgrade of SAP PPM version 5.0 from current 4.0

HI Everyone, A warm reagrds! W e are planning to upgrade our current SAP Product and Portfolio Management 4.0 to 5.0.While doing the Upgrade analysis I have come across below these questions..Has anyone earlier in this forum have come across
1.What are the side effects of this upgrade on existing system?
2. We have 21 client environment on top of the 3 standard clients provided by SAP. What can be the best approach for upgrading the systems? Some of these clients are used by project teams for prototype development , how would the upgrade affect their working (they are not working on this package)?
3. Our team is working on this package in one of the client and have created scenarios in the system. What will be the effect of this upgrade ? (this question can be seen as an extension to question 1)
4. How much effort would be required to carry out this upgrade and what will be the down time for the system?
I have check the service market place and help.sap but at present not getting much info..
Thanks for your time to read..

Hi,
2. We have 21 client environment on top of the 3 standard clients provided by SAP. What can be the best approach for upgrading the systems? Some of these clients are used by project teams for prototype development , how would the upgrade affect their working (they are not working on this package)?
All the clients will be effected and the prototyping done may not be applicable any longer. When you do a upgrade it is client independent.
3. Our team is working on this package in one of the client and have created scenarios in the system. What will be the effect of this upgrade ? (this question can be seen as an extension to question 1)
The scenarios may or may not be affected depending on the objects involved. Intense testing will be required.
4. How much effort would be required to carry out this upgrade and what will be the down time for the system?
This differs from customer to customer depending on the functionalities that are already in place.
Hope this helps,

SAP MDM 5.5 SP6 client installable

Hi All
Can any one help me out in getting the installable for SAP MDM 5.5 SP6 client installable. I need that version.Also let me know, does it effect in any way if the build version of server is different from the cleint version.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Aruna

Hi Aruna ,
As mentioned in the above posts,it is evident that the MDM server and the MDM guis versions must match for proper functioning of the MDM system.
SAP MDM 5.5 SP6 - Refers MDM 5.5 version Support pack 6 along with this also comes the patch and the hot fix number.eg 5.5.63.72 so this tand for MDM 5.5 SP06 patch 3 and hotfix 72.
When you are installing the MDM server and the GUI you need to match all of these ,a slight difference in the hotfix is tolerable but not the rest.
You can install the MDM package from the below link.Make sure that you have the S user id with the necessary authorization to download the same.
http://service.sap.com/swdc (download MDM support packages) Download>support packages and patches>entry by application group>sap netweaver>sap mdm>sap mdm 5.5>everything you wnat to download in relation with mdm
You can also refer to the master guide of MDM SP06 whcih will explain about the installtions:
https://websmp102.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700001119842007E (mdm SP06 installation guide)
You can also refer the below link for all the related documentation on MDM:

SAP MDM Vs IBM MDM

Hello Experts,
I am new to MDM, and want to know what is difference between SAP MDM and IBM MDM.
Also please provide some good documetation on SAP MDM.
For what it is used, what are the advantages of using it and all.
Thanks,
Suma

hi,
SAP MDM:SAP MDM enables master data on customers, partners and products to be consolidated and harmonized across the enterprise, making it available to all staff and business partners. A key component of SAP NetWeaver, SAP MDM ensures data integrity across all IT systems. With SAP NetWeaver MDM, customers can manage master data and supplemental content, such as texts, PDF documents, high-resolution images, or diagrams in a central business information warehouse.
Advantages of SAP MDM
SAP Master Data Management (SAP MDM) is a component of SAP's NetWeaver product group and is used as a platform to consolidate, cleanse and synchronise a single version of the truth for master data within a heterogeneous application landscape. It has the ability to distribute internally and externally to SAP and non-SAP applications. SAP MDM is a key enabler of SAP Enterprise Service-Oriented Architecture. Standard system architecture would consist of a single central MDM server connected to client systems through SAP Exchange Infrastructure using XML documents, although connectivity without SAP XI can also be achieved
There are five standard implementation scenarios:
Content Consolidation
Master Data Harmonisation
Central Master Data Management
Rich Product Content Management
Global Data Synchronization
The IBM View
In IBM's view, MDM is a set of disciplines, technologies, and solutions used to create and maintain consistent, complete, contextual, and accurate business data for all stakeholders (users, applications, data warehouses, processes, enterprises, trading partners, and so on). It's a holistic framework for managing structured and unstructured data that's aligned with business processes and managed throughout the information life cycle
To a large extent, SAPs NetWeaver initiatives are concessions to the reality of heterogeneity. No customer is going to have a completely SAP- or Oracle-based environment. With NetWeaver and Fusion, SAP and Oracle propose to accommodate the heterogeneous data-access requirements of their customers while keeping their bread-and-butter application software at the heart of things.
IBMs middleware vision displaces the primacy of the ERP vendors. Its probably too much to say that customers who embrace Big Blues WebSphere data integration middleware can pick and choose from between and among best-of-breed financial, SCM, and MRP (among others) products for their enterprise application needs. If nothing else, however, IBMs data integration and MDM middleware stack does give customers an alternative to SAP .
However one of the problems with IBMs approach to MDM is that, taken in isolation, it would mean that application vendors would need to completely rewrite their applications to take advantage of the MDM layer. This isnt going to happen, not least because vendors like SAP have their own MDM capabilities.
Moreover, users those do not want to convert to IBM's new multiform MDM offering will have to
negotiate separate maintenance agreements to protect their long-term investments in
WPC (which is WebSphere Product Center is a product information management solution for building a consistent central repository.).
Lastly, users should work with IBM to ensure that the standard IBM three-year
maintenance commitment will continue with the current WPC product, independent of
any move to a single MDM platform.

Nisha

Future of SAP MDM

Hi Experts
I would like to know the future of SAP MDM module ,will it be safe for anyone to continue with the MDM module,or is it going to be phased out by other SAP applications.Can anyone throw light on this?
With Regards
Manoj

Hi Manoj,
If you look at the current market situation.Not just SAP-MDM but also other technolgies are facing the challenge to survive.
The market is going through a lot of instabilty and downtime and not many customer are willing to take risks with their money and work.
The only difference that stands between SAPMDM and others is that MDM is now in its initial stages.It still has to mature as afull fledge solution for customers.
and with the MDM 7.1 release it has taking a good kick start and is still improvising and developing iwth every hotfix and patch.
But reatining the fact the Customers are still very unsure of MDM's results they are not ready to take that easy plunge at this point of time which is making MDM are slow runner.
But if you look closely with what MDM can deliver with the latest MDM 7.1 version and the business problems the companys are facing with their master data especially in a time of mergers and acquistions.SAP MDM will rise as Precise effective and unavoidable solution for customers.
So in my prespective the future of MDM is bright in the long run.
Hope It Helped
Thanks & Regards

SAP MDM, ORACLE MDM, Microsoft MDM and IBM MDM

Could someone discuss the differences and similarities between these MDMs-
SAP MDM, ORACLE MDM, Microsoft MDM and IBM MDM. Who is/will dominate the Market?
Thank you.

Hi priya k ,
These r the details regarding MDMs-SAP MDM, ORACLE MDM, Microsoft MDM and IBM MDM.
SAP Master Data Management
SAP Master Data Management (SAP MDM) enables master data on customers, partners and products to be consolidated and harmonized across the enterprise, making it available to all staff and business partners. A key component of SAP NetWeaver, SAP MDM ensures data integrity across all IT systems.
The SAP NetWeaver Master Data Management (SAP NetWeaver MDM) component of SAP NetWeaver creates the preconditions for enterprise services and business process management. The functionality represents customers, products, employees, vendors, and user-defined data objects in unified form. With SAP NetWeaver MDM, customers can manage master data and supplemental content, such as texts, PDF documents, high-resolution images, or diagrams in a central business information warehouse.
SAP Master Data Management (SAP MDM) is a component of SAP's NetWeaver product group and is used as a platform to consolidate, cleanse and synchronise a single version of the truth for master data within a heterogeneous application landscape. It has the ability to distribute internally and externally to SAP and non-SAP applications. SAP MDM is a key enabler of SAP Enterprise Service-Oriented Architecture. Standard system architecture would consist of a single central MDM server connected to client systems through SAP Exchange Infrastructure using XML documents, although connectivity without SAP XI can also be achieved. There are five standard implementation scenarios:
Content Consolidation - centralised cleansing, de-duplication and consolidation, enabling key mapping and consolidated group reporting in SAP BI. No re-distribution of cleansed data.
Master Data Harmonisation - as for Content Consolidation, plus re-distribution of cleansed, consolidated master data.
Central Master Data Management - as for Master Data Harmonisation, but all master data is maintained in the central MDM system. No maintenance of master data occurs in the connected client systems.
Rich Product Content Management - Catalogue management and publishing. Uses elements of Content Consolidation to centrally store rich content (images, PDF files, video, sound etc.) together with standard content in order to produce product catalogues (web or print). Has standard adapters to export content to DTP packages.
Global Data Synchronization - provides consistent trade item information exchange with retailers through data hubs (e.g. 1SYNC) Some features (for example, workflow) require custom development out of the box to provide screens for end users to use.
History
SAP is currently on its second iteration of MDM software. Facing limited adoption of its initial release, SAP changed direction and in 2004 purchased a small vendor in the PIM space called A2i. This code has become the basis for the currently shipping SAP MDM 5.5, and as such, most analysts consider SAP MDM to be more of a PIM than a general MDM product at this time.

SAP different versions in iSeries server

Hi SAP experts,
We have a current SAP 4.7 installation in an iSeries server in PROD and in DEV machine. Is it possible to implement a new version like ECC6 using the same iSeries machine? Will the 2 installation for 2 different SAP version (4.7 and ECC6) possible in 1 iSeries DB server? If possible what do you think would be the impact to license and other aspects?
Hoping for your replies.
Thanks,
John

Hi John,
Yes, of course you can install multiple systems on one DB server. Licensing for the SAP systems should be independent of the host you are running on.
Although you are already aware of it and posted your question there, I want to point out for all others that there is a dedicated forum for this platform: [SAP on IBM i|SAP on IBM i]

Thomas

http://solutionbrowser.erp.sap.fmpmedia.com/
Major difference is ECC6 is netwear product having WASJAVA+ABAP
secondly support unicode apart from this we have other diff. you can get fom master guide from service.sap.com/instguides
For installing ECC 6.0 you required a solution manager key.With out solutionmanager key you cannot install ECC6.0.
For ECC 6.0 is called netweaver component here you have ABAP+JAVA stack.
ECC6.0 supports UNCODE.
For installing 4.6 you don't required solution manager key.It only having ABAP stack.
4.6C supports NONUNICODE.
Hope this would add some more info.
