Syndication error

Question

Hi Experts,
My Scenario:
Upgrading SAP MDM 5.5 SP5 to SAP MDM 7.1 SP6.
Issue : We have both global & Local data scenerio, but after the upgrade... during testing ,whenever i am creating any global data it is directly ready to syndicate without waiting for any "Approval" activity, which was the case in 5.5 system.
In our case  Local data's "MDM Status" was the central approval point, so until our local data is not approved or the status is not changed to any of them which is maintained under syndicator property , it never used to ready to syndicate.
Because the logic is untill the data is not approved it should not reflect in "Ready" folder in xml file.
Please note : I have followed all the upgrade step by step mentioned in "Upgrade guide"
Please suggest what should i do ?
Regards,
Harmony

Hi Harmony,
As you are setting many filter's.
As per our filter Global MDM Status is set as " ALL" and Local MDM Status is set as " Approved " and "To be achieved".
It seems like once you create Global data, Global MDM Status for it set as "ALL" and it seems like it is not taking AND condition. I mean if any of the above criteria passes it pass (if it is taking OR condition rather than AND). May be why its not checking for Local MDM Status "Approved".
Try using Expression under free-form search where you write this expression as below so that if any of the these criteria is not fulfilling, it should fails. Expression:
Global MDM Status = " ALL" AND IS_NOT_NULL(Local MDM Status) AND Local MDM Status="Approved"
Also, as you said you dont have any record now available with Local MDM status = "Approved" then logically there should be zero record come in your search once you set this search criteria and save in your syndication Map.
Save this map afterward setting above search criteria using Expression. Now try creating new record in data Manager and check, is it coming to Ready folder or not. I think it should work this time and only if all the conditons meet, it will come.
