Hi Priya,

Master data is the fundamental business data in an enterprise and defines the business objects and classifications that describe overall business information. It is generally unchanging, although major additions / changes may occur when new company are added, and are used across multiple applications.

Hi Priya ,

Msater data is the data you require for your day to day activities in your business and you set it at once .i.e you dont change your data day to day .

Some of the master data we maintain in the system are

Material master data :You are setting up some business so all the goods you want to sell or buy you maintain them here.

Customer master : All your customres data.

Hi,

Simply to tell <b>Master data is the data which doesn't change frequently and rarely updated</b>.

Transactional data is the one which changes frequently.

For example in SD Module,

Master data includes:

- Customer Master data ( details about Customer)

- Material Master data (details about Material)

- Customer-Material Info records

- Enterprise Structure info (Dist Channels,Divisions etc)

- Condition Master Data in Pricing.

You can also search in SDN for Master Data for Module wise.

Reward if useful.

Hi Priya,

master data : master data is frequently accessed and rarly changed. bcoz like customer name and number all these type of data w'll not change. so master data is rarely updated.
