Hi,

Master data----> data which is created once but used generically i.e. doesn't require frequent changes, E.g. Customer master data , here customer is created once but data related to customer will not change frequently.

Transactional data---->Data related to accounting E.g. goods purchased by the customer which varies each month etc..

Customization data----->This is usually related to settings in SAP, for e.g. fiscal year variant, different sales document types etc...

hope this helps.
