MDM implementation

Hello All,
What are the  approximate timelines required for an SAP MDM implementation ( including Quick scan, data cleansing)
Thanks

Hi,
In addition to number of repositories, Interface & extraction program, it also depends upon the level of customization. I means to say if your requirement can be fulfilled using standard content and some what custom development then it is simple and won;t take much time. but if you have some good customization requirement like creating custom dynpro application, custom portal iviews, Data enrichment by some other provider, then it may take some good amount of time.
For total estimate of MDM implementation, you should count in total number of custom interfaces, extraction programs and enhancements and and portal/Java development in addition to MDM efforts.
Regards,
Shiv

    Hello  SudhaViz
    SAP MDM can work as independent solution for master data management.
    SAP MDM has own servers( MDM Server, Import Server, Sysndication Server, Layout Server, and user application s for server management and master data management.
    SAP MDM can work with different RDBMS like as Oracle , MS SQL, My SQL, DB2.
    Here is good presentation about SAP MDM and it's business scenarios:

  • SAP MDM Real-Life Implementations

    Hi,
    I'm curious to know what SAP MDM implementations are out-there ? Who has implemented SAP MDM in a real-life implementation, in what region, what size and for what purpose ?
    Thx,
    Dirk

    Hi Dirk,
    here is some public info:
    http://www.google.de/search?hl=en&q=SAPMDMlive+implementation&btnG=Search .
    For investors probably there are additional resources.
    As I am aware, at this time, MDM 5.5 SP4 patch1 is still in monitored/controlled shipment, and this would probably limit the information you are looking for...
    For SAP employees there are other resources.
    If you still require additional information, then please ask an MDM forum moderator, e.g. Markus Ganser in email.
    Regards.
    Laszlo.

  • Centralized MDM

    Just a question on a type of business scenario - is there anyone out there who has successfully implemented a complete centralized MDM implementation? Just as an example - modeling a Customer Repository (in MDM) that totally and accurately replicates the Customer structure (and all related structures) in SAP. Have you set up a MDM environment where business users maintain every element of a Customer Master Record (as an example) in MDM (via Data Manager) with automatic/continuous syndication outbound to SAP (no inbound activity).  As part of your centralized MDM/SAP solution, have you totally disabled all SAP transactions that would allow users to add or modify any element of a master record in SAP (i.e. XD01, XD02, .....)?   Altho MDM is supplied with base Customer/Material/Vendor, etc... Repositories and base Syndication Maps, etc.... if anyone has embarked on a full-fledged, centralized implementation of Master Data - these supplied components require a great deal of expansion and re-work to make this type of implementation possible.  Just wondering -  how many out there are using (or have attempted to use) MDM in this way - and, if so, what type of obstacles and/or limitations have you encountered?     MMF

    Hi MMF,
    In this kind of scenario,u have to change the fields and maps according to your requirement. Create required ports for ur R/3 systems to syndicate data to these ports. You should not provide access to the users to create or change the customer in R/3. Onlly the display customer access can be given.
    Hope this is helpful to u.
    Regards,
    Dheeraj.

  • Key benefits of using MDM

    Hi,
        I am trying to build a business case as to why a business should go for MDM implementation. Can anyone provide any insight into what are the key business benefits of implementing MDM ?
    Thanks

    Hi GS,
    In addition to above posts
    MDM Implementation basically deals to manage and maintain master data of the any firm/organization.
    The Dis separate and bad data is lying through out your IT landscape. to get a "singel version of truth"  or "360 degree view of your data" you need to implement MDM.
    though many MDM technologies are in market in order to implement. but as far as SAP MDM is concern, it is  the most versatile and beautiful platform over all others
    as it gives you
    Master Data Integration :
    Use MDM remote system extractor to extract customizing data in the initial setup of your MDM system
    Use MDM remote system extractor to automatically extract master data
    Use MDM import mechanisms to load master data from various sources
    Use MDM business content to integrate data
    Use MDM Syndicator to distribute master data to various targets
    Use MDM APIs and Web services to integrate data
    Some of the Operations :
    Data Modeling
    Role-Based Data Access
    Search
    Workflow-enabled Data Creation/Maintenance
    Data Publishing
    Master Data Quality
    Use validations and assignments to check the accuracy and consistency of your master data
    Create more complete and meaningful master data using the MDM Enrichment Architecture
    Create non-redundant and consistent master data using matching and merging capabilities
    I think things are clear for you  as far as MDM Implementation is concern.
    Hope it helps.

  • Size and duration of a MDM Project

    Hello,
    I have a difficult question (because I know that the answer depends on the situation), but I would appreciate to have some ideas based on real experience :
    1) what is the man-month effort for a typical MDM project? Say to put in place a repository for products + customers, so that at the end, we are able :
    - to maintain them centrally and distribute them to sevaral systems
    - to use the unduplication fonctionality
    The project should have the following steps : requirements gathering, specifications, customizing, tests, data migration and cutover.
    2) What profiles do we need for such a project ?
    3) Is it realistic to plan a MDM project in less than 6 months ?
    Thank you in advance for your answers.
    Best regards,
    Christophe.

    Hi Christoper,
    My experience of MDM Project for Resource estimation is as below.
      The most important thing to look at MDM project is to know what are the interfacing issues from source systems.  What are the final Attributes that need to be mapped in MDM.  what are the total no of mapping profiles that need to be build for Importing and Sysdicating.  what are the taxonomy, lookup or hirearchy that are required to customer?   Does RPCM is a required scenario?  What are ports that need to be required?  how many client systems are required for inbound/outbound and so on? 
    Note:  MDM implementation is driven more by architecture and its integration to other systems.  It is not a worry to know the no of records in MDM.  MDM Attribute list is something that shows the impact on the load of the project.
    Hope i gave you little insight.
    If you any futher queries you can write back here or can talk to me.
    Regards
    Verea

  • MDM integration without Solution Manager

    Hi All,
    I hope we can have MDM implementation without solution manager. (Please correct me if I am wrong.)
    Can anybody explain me the concerns if I don't have solution manager in my MDM implementation framework.

    Thanks in advance,

    Sambhaji

    Hi Sambhaji,
    Which release are you referring to?
    The current release SAP NetWeaver MDM 5.5 does not require Solution Manager for implementation. (Customizing tasks are done in the MDM Console).
    As far as MDM 3.00 is concerned, the Solution Manager is used for Customizing synchronization and distribution. Please refer to the relevant Master Guide in the Service Marketplace for further information.
