Answer 1

1 Define Software Product
log into your SLD and define a new Product, which can be found under the Software Catalog section.
Click "Products".
Press "New Product Version".
Fill in details, such as MDM by SAP, version 500 (for 5.0), then press "Create".
2 Define Software Component
If everything went smoothly, then you should now be looking at a screen similar to that of the picture shown below. Fill in the remaining information (Name and Version) and then press "Create" to finish making your product registration.
3 Create New Technical System
Return to the homepage of the SLD and click the Technical Systems link
Select Third-Party and press "Next".
Enter the system name and host name of your MDM server, then press "Next".
From the list of installed products, select the software component that you just created
4 Create New Business System
Now this particular step is very important. As I mentioned before, MDM does not have the typical ALE configuration of other SAP products. Well, now is our chance to define the information that we will need in order for XI to communicate with MDM. In this case, we are going to create a logical system name for MDM during the process of creating a new business system. The logical system name is critical, and that is the only thing that XI will use to represent the product when building an intergration scenario, so make sure to make note of the logical system name that you enter when creating a new business system.
From the SLD home page, select Business Systems.
Select "New Business System".
Select, "Third-Party" and press Next.
From the System drop down menu, select the third party technical system that you created.
Enter a logical system name, and press Next.
Enter a name for your business system, such as companyname_mdm, or such.
Select the Product and Software Component and press Next.
In the "Related Integration Server" drop down menu, select your XI machine and press Finish.
You should now be able to see a screen such as the following when selecting your new business system
