Former Member
0 Kudos

Hi ,

I have a table where there are 2 fields Country and code.

I imported data with a remote system rs2.

'edit key mapping window' values 'FOR rs2' are

name remote system key

india RS2 IIA

india RS2 IA "CHECKED"

In record pane there is one record.

name country

india IND

In synd i created 4 fields.

now in file i can see 2 records.

Name Country Remotesys remote key

india IND rs2 IIA

india IND rs2 IA

Now, as i 'checked ' the second record in 'edit key mapping window' values 'FOR rs2' , it SHOULD syndicate only 2nd record!!!

But it syndicated 2 records!! How can i control this??

Please let me know.

Hi John,

On syndication ,is theer any field called default key generated in file.

If yes then it contain value "true" for checked one and "false" for uncheck reords.

Hi,

Currently i am working in mdm 5.5. so defauilt option is not available.

so in 7.1 it is possible to syndicate default key instead of all the keys for a single remote system.

is my understanding correct.

Hi John,

You are right. I think this Default Key flag is introduced with MDM 7.1 SP05. and was not available with MDM 5.5.

@ Sudhanshu,

Such scenarios are possible when you have 2 or more keys for same remote system. Generally this happens while removing duplicates. For example you have same materials in ECC with two or more material number and if you consolidate and merge those in MDM then MDM material will have more than 1 key from the same remote system.

Dear John

'edit key mapping window' values 'FOR rs2' are

name remote system key

india RS2 IIA

india RS2 IA "CHECKED"

Why should be have 2 different keys maintained for the same record INDIA coming from the same remote system?

there are possibilities for different key mapping from different remote systems but not for single remote system, RS2 in example.

please clarify-Ravi

Ideally for each remote system we should have 1 key value only as this is the unique key/identifier.

If due to some reasons, existing duplicates the check should be built at the import part only for not importing the duplicates OR avoiding duplicate remote keys from the same remote system.

This been said if we have 2 remote key mapping for same record upon syndication only the default flagged value will be syndicated as rightly pointed by others.

hope this helps-Ravi
