Step by step procedure of SAP MDM process

Hi PP Gurus,
Can anybody give me the step by step process of SAP MDM.
Regards,
Pramod

Hi,
1.First of all you need to know the list of the source systems whose master data you need to maintain in MDM.You can have the source data in the form of XML, excel or MS Access etc. The first thing you need to perform is designing of the repository in the MDM console wherein you have the structure for the incoming data . Here you also need to create the users , roles , mention the remote systems from where you are extracting the data .Then Extract or import source data (e.g. Customer master data, Product master data, etc) from connected remote sytems i.e client applications.
2. Consolidate this data centrally on MDM, cleanse it.
3. Then harmonize or export the data through MDM syndicator tool. Then if there is FTP then dump all your XML data in the FTP from where SAP XI would pick the data and send it back to the different client systems from where you have fetched the data.
4. In the client applications, the received data can be complemented with local attributes.
Reward points if it is helpful.

History and Next Step not working in UWL SAP MDM 5.5 SP6 Patch 2

Hi,
Im not able to send a record to other process step with other roles in a WF.
When USER 1 logs on its possible to send the record to the next process step where USER 2 is assigned. When USER 2 logs on, the user is not able to send it anywhere, the iView is empty.
Its the same problem when we press the history button. In the first step of the WF its possible to see history. In the second step the history iView is empty.
Any ideas?
BR
Michael

I've seen issues like this as well. There are a variety of issues that came out of the SP06 Patch 2 upgrade which effect the MDM workflow and Portal UWL. I would recommend checking out the latest hotfix as I think it resolves a lot of these problems. The latest build is 5.5.62.50 (5.5 SP06 Patch 2 Hotfix 4). They released four hotfixes within a month (I think) so my guess is they are aware of the issues with SP06.

SAP MDM re install

Hi MDM Guru's,
Please Help me, the scenario is this, we client copy the (ERP ECC6) Production Server and copy it to our QA server, since the QAS is a copy of Prod Server the MDM connection is disconnected, can any body help me to reconfigure the connection of the MDM v71 QAS to ECC?
Can anybody send me step on how to reconfigure SAP MDM?
Thanks in Advance

Hi Archie,
Can you reconfirm if MDM is directly interfaced with ECC ?
Ideally PI is used as a middle ware for MDM - ECC integration. So, if ECC Prod is copied to QA, in PI (QA), the specific distribution paths have to be defined for flow of data from MDM to ECC and vice versa.
Hope I have clarified.

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:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/00a15239-684e-2b10-b8ae-b936b7d1c1fe
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
Kindly refer the below link to know more on this:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/60559952-ff62-2910-49a5-b4fb8e94f167 (MDM Workflows Overview)

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
Kindly refer the below link to know more on this:

I just replaced my hard drive and am trying to install the Snow Leppard OS on my Mac mini using the DVD's that came with the unit. Is there a step by step procedure that will guide me through this process?

I just replaced my hard drive due to failure in my Mac mini. I am trying to load the Snow Leppard OS from the DVD's that came with the unit. Is there a step-by-step procedure somewhere that would help me? This is my first problem with my first Mac. I thought getting to the hard drive and changing it would be the hard part but I made it through that with little trouble. My lack of software experience on the Mac is really slowing me down. I believe I'm not making the right choices in the Disk Utility program.Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Prep the new drive:
Drive Preparation
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
Upon completion quit DU and return to the installer. Install OS X. When the installation has completed you can proceed to restore your data from your backups. If you have an existing backup from Time Machine or another hard drive then upon completing the Setup Assistant you will have an option to restore from another Mac, a TM backup, or another drive. Use the appropriate option.

Step by Step method to create a process chain in SAP BI

HI There,
I'm new to SAP BI, can anyone pleas explain me why we need to use Process Chains in a simpler way?
Also it would be great if someone can give me step by step description for creating process chain. I've seen couple of PDF files but they confusing me more then clearing my doubts. Appreciate your time and thanks in advance.
Vandana
Please search the forum before posting a thread
Edited by: Pravender on May 4, 2011 3:57 PM

Hi Vandana,
1.Go to RSPC tcode ->(F5) create ->It will ask for process chain name ->then it will ask for start variant
2.If you have no start variant pre created then create new one (at right side there will be a paper symbol for that ).Every process chain has one and only one start variant that is to set scheduling option etc .When you will create a new one you will go to a screen where you have scheduling option .
3.a) Direct scheduling ->to start execution immediately
b) start using meta chain or API ->chains which run at specific time (day ,month etc or after some specific event ). save your settings and go back .click check symbol for final creation of start variant.
4.Now at left screen you have chain symbol (process types) .when you will click on that you will have all the process lists .
5.You can select process as per your requirement and connect different processes together.Each process is a different event (ex : load DTP ,Infopackage ,ABAP program ,AND ,Interrupt ).You cna do detailed study for that .
6.After adding all processes activate (ctrl+F3) and execute .
7.After that you can check logs (shift+F1) .you can see todays log ,yesterday and today etc .For details of every process execution right click on process and see display variant .
Hope this will be helpful for basic startup.you can further read thoroughly on each process .
Regards,
Jaya

Step by step procedure for all exits available in SAP

Dear Friends,
Greets....................
I need detailed good and basic documents for all exits( Menu exit, Field exit, and Screen exit.....) available in SAP with step by step procedure.
Thanks in Advance
Thanks&Regards
Raj Kumar

There are many different ways that exits are done in SAP and each way has many implementations - in total you would be talking about 10,000 to 100,000 possible exits. This cannot be documented in a single document.
SAP documentation on most exits exists in the SAP system - the best place to start looking is in the IMG for whatever module you need exits in - there is often an "Enhancements" node in the IMG with documentation on exits available and how to use them. Then the individual exits will often have documentation, or this can be found in OSS notes or by posting specific questions to this forum.
SAP also offer the BC425 training course on Enhancements and Modification that covers what you want

Financial Accounting (FI): The vendor master record represents the creditor account in financial accounting.
Sales and Distribution (SD):
Within the framework of materials planning and control, a requirement that has arisen in the Sales area can be passed on to Purchasing
Process Flow:
1)Determination of Requirements: Through MRP, purchase requisitions
2)Source Determination: helps you identify potential sources of supply, creating requests for quotation (RFQs
3) Vendor Selection and Comparison of Quotations: The system is capable of simulating pricing scenarios
4) Purchase Order Processing: information from the requisition and the quotation to help you create a purchase order. scheduling agreements and contracts are also supported.
5) Purchase Order Follow-Up: The system checks the reminder periods you have specified. up-to-date status of all purchase requisitions, quotations, and purchase orders.
6) Goods Receiving and Inventory Management: Goods Receiving personnel can confirm the receipt of goods simply by entering the Po number
7) Invoice Verification: The system supports the checking and matching of invoices, and clearing invoices for payment.
This is overview of MM in SAP.If found useful, Please reward points,
