Syniti Rapid Data Governance (RDG) is an SAP-endorsed Cloud-Based UI5 application built on the SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP). SAP Master Data Governance is a powerful solution to improve the quality and consistency of information across organizations by consolidating and centrally governing master data. Syniti RDG’s MDC tile streamlines the creation and setup of process templates and the configuration of its process steps.
Master Data Consolidation (MDC) refers to the process of combining and centralizing master data from disparate sources into a single System. This ensures that there is a consistent and accurate version of master data, such as customer, product, or supplier information, across an organization.
In SAP, Process Templates are predefined sets of steps and configurations that standardize the master data consolidation process. The Process Template you choose during a consolidation process specifies whether and in what order certain process steps are executed and what configurations apply for each step.
By utilizing process templates, organizations can accelerate the master data consolidation process and maintain data integrity across different systems and business units within the SAP landscape. Additionally, process templates facilitate compliance with regulatory requirements and supports ongoing data governance efforts by establishing standardized procedures for managing master data consolidation activities.
To create a process template, traditionally a user had to follow the standard guide to setup process templates:
Then to configure said process template a user would have to follow the standard guide to setup its process steps.
Pertinent configurations specific to each step type are identified by the Configuration ID. If a user would like to visualize the details for each configuration or create a new one, they would have to navigate to the MDCIMG t-code and select the activity related to the step type desired to configure.
Then a user would have to navigate the list of configurations and select the config id chosen in the process template and double-click it to visualize its detailed settings.
The Master Data Consolidation (MDC) tile on RDG streamlines this whole process by allowing users to create and delete process templates, process steps and its configurations within a single and intuitive screen and define a specific template that outlines the steps and configurations for executing a master data consolidation process.
STEP 1. On the Main screen click on the MDC Tile.
STEP 2. Click on the plus icon to add a new process template.
STEP 3. Input process template name and description and choose a Business Object Type (BO Type).
STEP 4. Select a process goal and decide for the Default Template and the Delete Source indicators.
Process Goal refer to the specific objectives or outcomes that organizations aim to achieve through the implementation of process templates. Depending on the goal selected the user might need to also select a strategy.
STEP 5. To add a process step click on the Add button, select a step type, input a description and make selections for Adapter, Config ID, Action Control and Authorization Group.
STEP 6. Add extra process steps to meet the business requirement and goal of the consolidation prosses.
STEP 7. If needed, user can create and/or visualize the configurations for steps. To visualize the details of a selected configuration, click on the View Details pencil icon. To create a configuration, select “Custom – Create configuration” from the list of configurations.
