Custom Function in SAP MDM Data Manager Validation

Hi SDN,
Can we write our own custom function for Validation of the records.
Actually my requirment is
  For a particular Account Group The value of the G/L Account must be in particular range and it must have a specific Length.
For Example:
IF( Chart of Account = CCA AND Account Group = ACG, G/L Account No >=100 AND G/L Account No <= 1000 AND LEN(G/L Account No) = 6, False)
Pls provide some valuable suggestion .

Hi Rajni thanx for ur prompt reply
The actual problem is that :
we have approx near about 100 Account Group, so it would become very complex to replicate same condition 100 times
AND
these account group may keep on increasing so even maintenance point of view it would be hard to maintain.
can u tell me some other way to do it, i mean is there any other feature by which we can perform validation in MDM.
Regards
Kuldeep

  • SAP MDM Data Manager Master Record

    Hi All,
    Currently we have two master records in the MDM repository however the original user who created these is no longer here; due to this these records are unable to be updated or deleted in SAP MDM Data Manager
    I cant find away of deleting these or moving ownership, I am hoping someone can assist

    If you have the Admin login cerdentails use those to delete the records.
    It would be helpful if your could give the version
    for 5.5 default Admin credentails are Admin and no password
    for 7.1 default Admin and password is sapmdm
    try these else ask for Basis/ MDM Administrator for Admin login credentails

  • Unable to use 'Visio Professional 2003' with 'SAP MDM Data Manager 7.1'

    Hello,
    I'm currently working with MDM 7.1, and I installed 'Visio Professional 2003 SP2' to build my workflows.
    The problem is that:
    (1)- As the third pane ('Step Properties') did not appear in Visio when I drag & dropped icons => I executed 'Data Manager' help procedure (p. 301 / 302); cf.: help.sap.com : configuration of file paths in Visio, via 'Tools'>'Options''Advanced', etc.
    (2)- After these steps, when I launched Visio again in Data Manager, my menu bar had disappeared in Visio, and I couldn't save my workflow, even with the 'Save' icon.
    Does somebody know, or understand, what's happening, please?
    Thx a lot for any help,
    remi

    Hi,
    As you have already installed MS-VISIO 2003.
    Did you install Install  Workflow Engine i.e. WorkflowInstall_Ver setup ?
    If not please install it and then restart your machine.
    Also, Note: Microsoft office Visio 2003 should be Standard edition.
    Kindly update if you are still facing any issue..
    Thanks and Regards,

  • MDM Data Manager step-by-step process with an example

    Hi All,
    I recently started reading MDM. I am clear with MDM-Console concepts. But I have problem with MDM Data Manager. I am confused with data entries in qualified tables, work flows(using microsoft studio), Matching mode- rules(High treshold, low threshold) etc.. I read material posted in forums- but still I am not clear.
    I need a step-by-step process for data entries with *examples*. A good example which covers all Data Manager concepts. PDF's with screen shots, videos any thing would help.
    Please help me......It would be of great help.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Suchir

    Hi Suchir ,
    MDM 5.5 has 4 MDM clients to perform 4 main functionality on the MDM master records.
    - Console- This is where all the Administrative work is performed
    - Data Manager- This is where the actual maintainence work is done on the master data like consolidation deduplication etc.
    - Import manager- Thsi is from where the source matser records are taken into MDM repoistory
    - Syndicator- This is from where teh consolidated master data is send back to the target systems.
    MDM Data Manager is the heart of MDM
    The activities that can be performed in the MDM Data manager are:
    - Data Consolidation
    - Data Validation
    - Data Deduplication
    - Data Assignment
    - Data Governanace
    etc......
    Qualified Table:
    - Qulaified tables are used to store relational records where one field value is determining the other field or fields value.
    - Qualified tables are maintained in Console and can be viewed in Data Manager
    - Qualified Table are viewed under a separate section in Data Manager in the right hand side.
    - Qualified table has Non qualifiers and Qualifiers.
    - Non qualifiers can be seen in the  Qualified table and in the linking Qualified field
    - Qualifiers can be seen separately under the Qualified section in the data manager
    Kindly refer the below link to know more on this:

    Workflows
    - Workflows are designed in MDM for Governanace
    - You can create the MDM workflow using the MS Visio 2003 stencils in the MDM Data manager in the record mode under the workflow table
    - The saved workflow in DM can then be executed either mnaully or automatically based on teh trigger actions
    - The trigger action for teh MDM wf are record Add,Update,Import,Manual

    Matching Mode
    - This mode is exclusively for Master data deduplication
    - We need to create Rules,Strategies,Transformation in MDM data manager in teh record mode
    - Then you need to run these strategies on the selected records
    - Based on your score and threshold set in the strategy MDM will identify duplicate records
    - This score will be seen in teh Matching mode
    - Colour coding is used along with scores to find out dupliactes
    - Green - 100%dupliacte Blue- 50?% Red- No duplicate

  • Deleting DataLocationGroups (with MDM Data Manager or MDM Java API)

    I´ve a lot of DataLocationGroups which are results of tests (importing pictures into the images tables but not stored as BLOB). I can´t see that the underlying table is exposed within MDM Data Manager. So i tried to delete the useless nodes with the DeleteGroup command.
    However this seems not to be supported by the API
    com.sap.mdm.commands.CommandException: Deleting of data location groups is currently unsupported
         at com.sap.mdm.group.commands.DeleteGroupCommand.execute(DeleteGroupCommand.java:91)
    I´m using the new Java API with MDM 5.5SP6.
    No chance to remove the nodes?

    Thanks for your answer. I would possibly open a service call to check if there is a hotfix available. Maybe you have some idea how i can check if the a Location is already existent? From experiments when importing with the MDM Data manager, it seems that a path is represented by a tree of HierLocationGroupNodes.
    For example: I´ve imported from
    cde271480MMPPpictures.jpg using the Data Manager. When using the RetrieveGroupTree Command, i can see that there are two nodes named cde271480 (Id: GN39) with child node named MMPP (Id: GN89).
    Maybe i now want to use the API to import a picture from
    cde271480     estlocation into the images table. To get a locationID usable for the setDataLocationId i had to compare the pathname of the picture with elements of the GroupTree from the root. If one element of the path is not existent in the tree, i have to create this new element and connect it to the parent. And i can then use the ID of the Leaf node for the DataLocationId. Is this correct?

  • MDM Data Manager Masks, field Shared

    Hi experts,
    while creating a mask in the MDM Data Manager I noticed the field Shared. It can be set to Yes and No.
    Can anyone tell me what this field does? I couldn't find any reference to it in the documentation of the MDM Data Manager, current version, MDM 7.1 SP07, May 12, 2011.
    Best regards,
    Marcus

    Hi Adrivit,
    could you please elaborate a bit more?
    I just created a Mask that is not shared. Then I logged on with another user. That other user can see the mask and select it in the data manager. That other user also see the records contained within the mask.
    I don't see any chenge when I set the Mask to shared.
    Is this something that is related to Roles, maybe?
    Best regards,

  • MDM Data Manager - Freezes at loading Local Searches

    Hi all,
    While the loading the MDM data manager (DM) the application freezes for ~5 min while stating "Loading Local Searches", before the DM is finíshed loading.
    Does anyone know how to solve this problem, or at least where the local searches are stored on the drive?

    Hi Christian,
    While the loading the MDM data manager (DM) the application freezes for ~5 min while stating "Loading Local Searches", before the DM is finíshed loading.
    Does anyone know how to solve this problem, or at least where the local searches are stored on the drive?
    As per my knowledge, there may be some reasons for this problem.
    1. There might be a version mismatch between the MDM server and the MDM Data Manager Gui. You can check the verison only when the Data Manager opens.
    However, you can check it for other GUi's and compare it with the MDM server version. ( Even the build version should match).
    2. There might be huge number of records saved in your repository.
    3) You might have changed the repository strutcure which has not been updated throughout.
    There might be some other problem also.
    Possible solutions:
    1. Unload the repository and Load it again with UPDATE INDICES. This might solve the problem at the root itself.
    2)I would suggest you to check your GUI version and upgrade it if its not matching with the MDM server version.
    3)If still not working, you can try-unistalling the DM client and re-installing it again.
    Please note these 2 steps before performing the step 2 and step3.
    Check the repository for errors and if any, then verify it
    Do take a back of the repository from the Console- Use Archive repository.
    Hope it helps.
    Thanks and Regards

    Hi all,
    thank you for your replies.
    I tried to connect oracle DB except "< and >" symbol but It did not work.
    I installed windowXP 32bit , Oracle client 32bit and SAP MDM Import manager 32bit in My local PC.
    Also I connect to MDM DB using sqlplus in My local PC.
    I wonder that TNSNAME.ORA is used DB connection using SAP MDM Import manager ??
    I think TNSNAME.ORA is not used when I connect to DB using SAP MDM Import manager because I enter parameters are properties of TNSNAME.ORA.
    I don`t know why don`t connect to DB.

  • Connection Issues MDM Data Manager using Vista

    Hello
    I am trying to connect to the MDM Data Manager(v 5.5) and get a message "Cannot Connect to MDM Server". My colleague is doing the same thing and it works for him. The only difference is that he is on XP and I am on Vista.
    Is there something which I need to do from my side to make it work from Vista ?
    Appreciate your help.
    Thanks
    Bhavin

    Hi,
    There are additional patches you need to install for working on Vista. This is the file name - "MDMGC55006P3HF_10-10003297" you need to download from SMP and install them on your local machine for all the clients namely  console, DM,IM,Syndicator.
    After instaling this, it'll surely work.

  • Connection to MDM data manager

    Hi All .
    I have connected to repository through console.But when I am trying to connect to data manager nothing is displayed like a blank screen ?What can be the reason for this?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    What do you mean by "like a blank screen". Are you able to see data manager main login window where we need to provide user login credentials?? Because, as soon as you click on the data manager Icon, it will open data manager login window. Once you provide user credentials, it will open data manager in record mode.
    Can you explain your issue further more...Is import Manager and other components working fine?? On what MDM version you are working...
    Also, if your lastly connected MDM server is not reachable (MDM 5.5), then sometime Data manager and import manager hangs up because of Last database entry in the registry.. Check this thread in case your problem is same

  • Filter the results set for custom iviews in SAP MDM

    We have a scenario where based on the user name/user role we want to filter the results retrieved by an search result iview developed for accessing data from SAP MDM Repository.
    E.g.
    We have a lookup table called Plants which contains master data pertaining to  manufacturing plants.
    The portal user P00100xxyy is responsible for maintaining master data for a plant 1101. However, the plant lookup contains data for other plants as well.
    We would like to prevent the user P00100xxyy to see/modify data for other plants in the table.
    We have explored the core MDM functionality of security/constraints. It does not provide row level granularity and we are hoping that the iview approach can help us achieve row level filters.

    Hi Rajni thanx for ur prompt reply
    The actual problem is that :
    we have approx near about 100 Account Group, so it would become very complex to replicate same condition 100 times
