SAP MDM printing

Hello,
I am working on SAP MDM Publisher.
In Actual Spread, I find that there is lot of manual work. In my catalogue, I want to have 7 fields. For actual print preview, manually I have to see that all fields are visible.
Also, when I hide some object, in family objects tab element goes away but in print preview field is still coming.
Can you guide any smart way of publishing my MDM data in MDM publisher.
Regards,
Sameer.

Hi Rathakrishnan,
It's not a functionality of SAP script, but you have to set an attribute of the output device. Use transaction SPAD, select your printer and hit button Output Device. Then go to Tab 'Output attributes' and set 'Copies as separate output requests (in SAP System)'. This is similar to the collate functionality.
Does this solve your problem?
Regards,
John.

  • SAP MDM and Zycus or Zoomix or Kalido or Trillium

    Hi All,
    please, could you help me to understand better which is the best enterprise-wide master data management software solution for harmonizing, storing and managing master data over time??
    Even if I’ll use SAP MDM; I need to cleanse and harmonize MD.
    What about Zynapse? Kalido? Zoomix? Trillium??
    Thank u in advance

    Hi,
    Kalido MDM :
    Master (reference) data management is  thought as a special form of data warehouse federation(A ‘federated data warehouse’ consists of a set of data warehouse instances that operate semi-autonomously, are generally geographically or organizationally disparate, but which can be thought of as one large data warehouse).
       However, experience shows that such systems are complex to manage and that, over time,the absence of a common warehouse (a single common source of master data) leads to inconsistency and frequent errors in transactional data.
        Furthermore, such systems generally do not easily lend themselves to being rapidly adapted to new business requirements since they are often dependent upon writing low-level code to effect the revisions.
                The high level architecture for a federated set of data warehouses with integrated data, based on maintenance of master data using a Master Data Warehouse, which supplies
    master data to both the data warehouse federation and the underlying source systems.
    It is important to note here that the Master Data Warehouse is in effect an operational system since it manages all master data flowing through the organization.
    This demands effective processes and procedures for management and ownership of master data.
    SAP MDM
    Companies striving to accelerate business growth and improve business performance need to innovate and remain flexible to dynamic market forces. NetWeaver provides the ideal platform for enabling such innovation and flexibility. Satyam’s NetWeaver Practice provides a host of solutions based on the primary user interface (EP) framework, the primary integration engine (XI), the primary data management tool (MDM), and the business process orchestration tool that enable customers to:
         Design, build, and implement new business processes
         Knit together disparate processes and systems
         Develop a unified view of information from every facet of the organization, and deliver it to stakeholders when and how they need it through a dedicated NetWeaver Center of Excellence

    1.Fast, accurate, automated, self-learning system :
    2.No scripting or rule development required – Zoomix Accelerator never requires the development of scripts or the manual definition or maintenance of data processing rules. The system automatically interprets data to learn the optimal matching, normalization and classification required for any data domain.
    3.Processes all types of complex corporate data – Zoomix Accelerator works equally well with product data, customer data, supplier data, financial data, etc. – in any language or combination of languages.
    4.Rapid integration into existing applications and business workflows – The system's integration with daily user workflow provides objective, on-the-fly data correction. Erroneous, duplicated and incorrectly categorized data are repaired immediately, without disrupting routine business functions.

    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.

    hi
    Master data is the core data of an enterprise that exists independently of specific business transactions and is referenced in business transactions. It builds the foundation for the smooth execution of business processes and well-informed business decisions. Master data represents business objects rather than business transactions and is rarely changed over a long period of time. The following objects are among a company’s most important master data objects:
    ● Product
    ● Customer
    ● Supplier
    ● Employee

  • Using the Open Catalog Interface (OCI) between SAP-ECC 6.0 and SAP-MDM

    Hello ASUG Community.
    I'm working on an SAP-MDM project where we will configure the OCI interface between SAP-ECC 6.0 and SAP-MDM.  The business requirement will be to punch out to SAP-MDM's catalog from SAP-ECC for expensed items (e.g., no material master record exists in SAP-ECC).
    The data that will be returned to SAP-ECC will be purchase price info, material group, short text, & our global SAP-MDM item number.
    The question I've been trying to design around is "where to store the SAP-MDM item number"?
    I've looked into creating a custom filed on EKPO but now feel that a configured text field will be the best solution from an SAP-ECC point of view (less effort on the SAP-ECC side from a development perspective, no need to regenerate the EKPO table, etc.).
    The question I'd like to pose to ASUG is.... Does anyone have experience or an opinion to offer using this functionality?  It seems that I will have to code in a user exit or BAdi to insure that the SAP-MDM item numbers are returned to the appropriate text field on my POu2019s.  Or can this be done using the standard OCI functionality?
    I found OSS note 1347656 which references BADI "ME_CATALOG_INTERFACE" but I'm not sure if this right path to go down or if this would be the correct place to code non-conforming OCI mapping requiremetns.
    Any insight would be most appreciated.
    Thanks.  Sincerely,
    Rich Wortmann

    I would suggest you create a new field for this as you may require thois going forward for reporting as well. Text fields are difficult to report.
    Sorry not sure about the BADI to use.

  • SRM Product / Material creation - Data flow to SAP MDM

    Dear SAP friends,
    I need your help with 2 issues. Thanks in advance for your collaboration.
    Our client needs to create products and make them available to purchase almost immediately.
    The scenario we had working for the last 2 years was: product creation in SRM (fields: short description / product category / measure unit), that would then be sent to SAP MDM for data enrichment, through BBP_CCM_TRANSFER_CATALOG (JOB running every 1 minute). This solution worked well for the last 2 years.
    Recently, we are having some problems with this job. We noticed that, sometimes SRM doesn´t send the new products to MDM, and we think it´s a report performance problem. The report doesn´t maintain is normal behavior when executed every 1 minute.
    SAP advice is to only run this report once a day. That would obviously require having a minimum time frame of 1 day between product creation and its availability (purchase), which isn´t acceptable in this client business model.
    Question 1: Did anyone have a client with similar requirement? What was the implemented solution?
    Because of report performance problems, we are running it (BBP_CCM_TRANSFER_CATALOG) every 5 minutes. It happens that sometimes, more than one catalog manager creates products in that time frame, and MDIS when importing the products to MDM, creates one unique workflow JOB making it impossible to assign it to both catalog managers for enrichment.
    Question 2: How can we ensure that SRM sends only one product per xml files sent to XI / PI ? Or, perhaps, ensure that XI / PI splits the xml file sent from SRM into several files with one product each.
    Thank you very much for your help in advance,
    Best Regards,
    João S. Carvalho

    Hi meka
    In product costing values flows as follows;
    In product cost calculation raw material prices are costed which comes from material master in MM01
    Product operations: i.e material BOM and master receipe or routings from PP module.From PP module operation costs comes in product costing.
    In CO module: In Tcode KP26 we maintain activity\cost center planning for activities like machine hours, set up hours, labour hours etc.Here we define plan quantity and plan prices.
    In Cost Sheet (KZS2) we maintain base cost elements & overheads and While order creation we calculate planned cost of that particular  material.and then check the variances after getting actual cost of product.
    Hope this will help you and if found useful assign points.
    Let me know if you need more information.
    Regards
    Nilesh.

  • Help Required -- Can we use SQL Query to READ data from SAP MDM Tables

    Hi All,
    Please help.........
    Can we use SQL Query to READ(No Creation/Updation/Deletion  just Read) Data from SAP MDM tables directly, without using MDM Syndicator.
    Or direct SQL access to SAP MDM tables is not possible. Only through MDM Syndicator can we export data.
    Thanks in Advance
    Regards

    All the tables you create in Repository comes under A2i_CM_Tables in Database named as your repository name. So the tables names are fields of table A2i_CM_Tables. Now i tried it but cant make it.
    Now, I dont think its possible to extract all fields in tables and there values using select query. May be pure sql guy can do that or not.
    But there is no relation of data extraction and syndicator. Data is viewed in Data Manager. and you can also store data in a file from DM also.

  • SAP MDM Joining tables in console? Help needed.

    Hi,
    I am placed in SAP MDM Project.
    Currently, we have an unique requirement.
    We, have to join two tables of SAP MDM Console in an unique field
    named(House No and PO Code).
    Actually, we have a main table named Business Partner and a Flat table
    named Address.
    Now, we have a field named House No and PO Code(Business Partner) which I have made as unique.
    Also, the Field named House No and PO Code(Address) is unique.
    Now, my colleague suggested if we can make remote key mapping at the time of import
    it will automatically populate the address data for each individual.
    But it is not true. Remote Key mapping is a different concept.
    If Remote key is mapped with any field of the Main table.
    It will show remote key mapping for that field with a remote system.
    When data is syndicated back after modification same data is reflected in that remote system.
    Only thing that we can do is that make House No and PO Code (Business Partner) as Lookup(Flat) field and it is mapped with the Flat table Address.
    Now, the SAP MDM Data Operator needs to select the address manually from say 10,000 address records for a person George Smith in main table(Business Partner).
    No other way round.
    Please suggest if there is any other way.
    Thanks and Regards

    Hi Elmar,
    I have checked the packages and the XFree86-libs-4.3.99 is not installed. I guess I will have to install it.
    Now your question about oracle user. I am not sure if you have performed any SAP MDM installation with ORACLE RDBMS but the installation guide is totally different than the normal SAP inst guides. Indeed someone needs to install separately SAP MDM and ORACLE and in my installation I do not install NetWeaver since it is not mandatory for the testing phase of the project. You can have a look at the guide (it is very poor -no reference to ORACLE details):
    https://websmp105.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700000271882007E
    So the official ORACLE inst gudie says to install the ORACLE software with the oracle user.
    Rgds,

  • Data Import from SAP R/3 to SAP MDM 7.1 without SAP PI

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement to import Vendor Master data from SAP R/3 to SAP MDM 7.1 on a regular basis. What are the Options available for data transfer between these two systems without any middleware(like SAP PI,etc). I checked the SAP Documentation and found the scenarios with SAP PI as middleware.
    I have few very basic ideas:
    1) Will there be any way for SAP MDM to pick a file from certain location and load the data..
    2) Shall I use MDM ABAP API to write a program to connect to MDM Repository and schedule this at regular intervals to achieve the data transfer.
    Pls suggest the best design approach..
    Thanks in advance.

    1) Will there be any way for SAP MDM to pick a file from certain location and load the data..
    ANS : No, MDM will not pick up the file, file can be pick up from MDM Inbound folder and send from outbound folder for automize process and for MDM manual Process you can pick up and send  file to local desktop, network shared path
    2) Shall I use MDM ABAP API to write a program to connect to MDM Repository and schedule this at regular intervals to achieve the data transfer.
    ANS : require to write code at ABAP side
    so ABAP program will pick or send data file to MDM folder
    Note following point
    1. Require to write ABAP Program which will pick or send data file to MDM outbound / Inbound folder
    2. Require to do some technical setting for ABAP program at SAP side, technical person will help regarding this matter
    Note : There are many disadvantage and time consuming procss, monitoring file and it is not advisable to go without any intermidiate software for e.g PI, Tibco
    Thanks,

  • SAP MDM Vendor email addresses are not in order when sent to SAP R/3

    Hi Experts,
    We were trying to maintain vendor email addresses in this order in SAP MDM:
    E-mail address: massupa@nexus
    Sequence Number: 001
    E-mail address: win@nexus
    Sequence Number: 002
    E-mail address: satita@nexus
    Sequence Number: 003
    But when saving the record, its order get mixed up like below: (I believe it was arranged alphabetically automatically---> is this the standard MDM functionality?!)
    E-mail address: massupa@nexus
    Sequence Number: 001
    E-mail address: satita@nexus
    Sequence Number: 003
    E-mail address: win@nexus
    Sequence Number: 002
    When it gets syndicated to ECC, its order was maintained incorrectly with incorrect IDs:
    E-mail address             ID
    massupa@nexus        001
    satita@nexus              002   -
    > should be 003
    win@nexus                 003  -
    > should be 002
    we checked both the XML Files and the IDOC and found that it has the same order maintained in SAP MDM
    massupa@nexus        001
    satita@nexus              003
    win@nexus                 002  
    But how come the IDs were changed in R/3?
    Many thanks in advance!

    Hi Mike,
    As per your requirement, i feel that for ID either you can create a new field say sequence ID in this e-mail addresses table of MDM and thus can syndicate it or can also use ID as key using remote key concept. I mean for this e-mail addresses table, you can set property Key mapping = yes  in MDM Console and thus can use this IDs as key for this email address e.g. for massupa@nexus you can save ID as Key.
    So during syndication, map this field with target IDOC structure field and I mean Remote Key under e-mail addresses table with IDOC ID target field. In this way you can have correct IDs with their corresponding email addresses.
    Kindly let me know if you are looking for something else.

  • Brief discussion on SAP XI and its' Integration with SAP MDM.

    Hi,
    I have never worked on SAP XI.
    I am discussing it on brief, please give your valuable replies.
    SAP XI consists of System Landascape Directory(SLD).
    SLD Consists of Business System and Techinical System.
    Technical System contains all information about the software
    component. The Business System consists of Inbound and Outbound Business
    System which are used as logical names for data transfer.
    There is communication Channel for Receiver and Sender Business System and n agreement
    is signed between Sender and Receiver.
    Outbound Interface defined for Business System Outbound and Techical System associated
    with the Business System,
    Inbound Interface defined for Business System Inbound and Techical System associated
    with the Business System.
    In SAP NetWeaver XI Integration Directory, we have defined the Integration Scenarios,
    Actions, Interface Objects, Mapping Objects, Adapters Objects.
    Mapping Object defines the Structure and Value Mapping.
    Adapter Objects defines the Adapter program which implements RFC Adapter, FTP Adapter logic.
    FTP Adapter is used for XI-MDM Communication.
    RFC Adapter is used for XI-ECC Communication.
    Integration Repository: Both Outbound and Inbound Interfaces are Mapped with Value mapping and
    Structure Mapping inside Integration Repository.
    The File Adapter takes the File from the Outbound port of MDM System
    and sends it as IDOC to Receiver Business System.
    Value Mapping must be done between Sender and Receiver interfaces.
    Value Mapping is done by XSLT or Java based program.
    SAP NetWeaver XI Integration Server at runtime:
    Message Split, Interface Determination, Receiver Identifaction, Mapping, Techincal Routing
    and Call Adapter Proccess are done.
    In SAP XI 3.0 and MDM 5.5:
    Step 1: Create busines system as service.
    Step 2: Create communication channel for each business service. If the system can communicate
    through different channels, then create all possible channel types if necessary.
    Step 3: Create receiver agreement between the systems.
    Step 4: Interface determination:
    - Here you see for the first time the software component mentioned;
    there are some special requirements regarding this software component in relation to the customizing ID mapping.
    - To modify this software component, the customer needs to copy the SAP standard delivered software component
    into its own namespace. The customer is able to modify to create archives
    for the customized ID mapping.
    Receiver determination.
    Configure an FTP Server on the MDS.
    Create a send folder for outbound messages using outbound port(s) for
    remote systems(s).
    Create receive folder inbound messages using inbound port(s) for remote systems.
    This ia all about concept of SAP XI Infractsture and its' Integration with SAP MDM 5.5.

    Hi Kaushik,
    You must be aware of File types that MDM Import Manager can Import i.e. we have XML, Excel etc. Now there are two transactions to extract data from R3
    1. MDMGX -
             - For lookup table extraction
             - Output in XML format which MDM can import without using XI.
              - FTP can be configured to put the file in the desired folder which will be then picked by Import Server.
    2. MDM_CLNT_EXTR -
              - For Main table records.
              - Output is in Idoc format which MDM doesn't understand hence we need XI in between which converts Idoc file received from R3 into XML which can then be imported using Import Manager or Import Server. For this we need to implement XI Scenario that consists of Source System, Receiver System, Type of Data etc.
    Just a basic understanding...
