MDM 7.1 SP05

[Former Member]

Hi Guys,

I have a few questions about new version of MDM 7.1:

1) What does the new WF step "Wait" does ??

2) Is it possible to configure the matching scope in the Match Web Dynpro UI with MDM 7.1 SP05 ?

3) Will there be just one step for enrichment WF with SP05 and not the two process steps together as we have till SP04?

4) Any plans to make MDM WF more flexible, as in integration with the Org hierachies or dynamic approvals ?

Best Regards,

Hi Dheeraj

To add-

4) Any plans to make MDM WF more flexible, as in integration with the Org hierachies or dynamic approvals ?

In the SAP best built applications guidelines for EIM- MDM it has been suggested that SAP MDM workflow is not best suited for cMDM. Which means there might not be plans for enhancing MDM wf for dynamic approvals or org hierarchies selection.

hope this helps-Ravi

Hi Dheeraj,

1) What does the new WF step "Wait" does ??

The records coming from syndication or import and one of the record field contains the date that a Wait step should wait for. The dates may be different for different records. When the user moves the workflow job to a Wait step, the user can choose a date at run time. For more details Please refer SAP Note: 1329424

Also refer this thread for more understanding,

2) Is it possible to configure the matching scope in the Match Web Dynpro UI with MDM 7.1 SP05 ?

3) Will there be just one step for enrichment WF with SP05 and not the two process steps together as we have till SP04?

As of MDM 7.1 SP05 Yes, it is there Now you can use only one step that replaces the trigger and wait steps. For more details, Please refer, http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwmdm71/helpdata/en/44/bedae9317456a3e10000000a1553f6/content.htm

4) Any plans to make MDM WF more flexible, as in integration with the Org hierachies or dynamic approvals ?

I think for Dynamic Approvals as of MDM 7.1 SP05 it is not there, can hope in future releases

With MDM 7.1 SP05, In MDM Workflow: Enhanced: Added new EC Service workflow step for use with MDM Enrichment Controller to enable the user to specify and maintain the EC related settings directly as part of the step definition.

For more details, Please refer SAP Note: 1422355 - SAP NetWeaver MDM 7.1 SP05 Release, 1st pt under MDM workflow
