With MDM studio you can send specific data in these ways:
Name | Responsible | Description |
---|---|---|
Monitor Master data inbox |
Data steward (Target company) |
When a source company releases a master record, it is added to the Master data inbox of the target company. The added record has the status To be processed. You can only view the record.
When the source company runs an MDM message and no errors occur, in the Master data inbox, the status of the record is changed to processed. This indicates that the master data is imported in the database of the target company or in the staging journal.
Possible statuses of the Master data inbox are:
|
MDM message: Direct |
Data steward (Target company) |
When a master record has the Released status, it is processed if the related message is run. the message is run in the source company. The message directly imports the master data into the relevant tables of the target company. |
MDM Message: Data to staging |
Data steward (Target company) |
When a master record has the Released status, it is processed if the related message is run. The message is run in the source company. The message imports the master data into the MDM staging journal of the target company. |
Monitor MDM staging journal |
Data steward (Target company) |
If you use staging in your master data process, master records are imported into the staging journal by the ‘Data to staging’ message. You can monitor the master record staging journals in the target company. Staging journal validationsThe master records in the staging journal can be validated according to the applicable staging journal validation setup. If the applicable validation rules are:
If you use data comparison, you can also apply a staging journal validation. This validation defines what happens with journal lines with data differences. If you manually generate a data comparison, make sure the data comparison is done before you manually apply staging journal validations. To apply a staging validation, in Connectivity studio, in the Staging display options, for the desired record, set up a validation with the BisValidationMdmDifference validation class. The Exception behavior and Type settings of the validation setup define what happens if differences are found. For more information, refer to Set up staging validations. |
MDM message: Data from staging |
Data steward (Target company) |
When a staging journal has the status To be processed, it is processed if the related message is run. The message is run in the target company. The message exports the master data from the staging journal and imports it into the relevant tables of the target company. Usually, you run this message in batch. |
MDM message: External |
Data steward (Target company) |
When a master record has the Released status, it is processed if the related message is run. The message is run in the source company. The message exports the master data to the format and location as defined by the target document and target connector of the message. From there, it can be picked up by the external application. |
