On May 27, 2021 we had an SAP Community Call where SAP experts provided insights into key processes in SAP Master Data Governance, cloud edition (which is generally available as announced in my recent SAP Community blog post).

carsten.koehler set the stage by introducing basic facts about SAP Master Data Governance, cloud edition. Then, he hosted a live system demo featuring end-to end processes in which his team mates guided the participants step by step through the following processes:
During the live demo traffic was high in the parallel Q&A window where the participants could ask related questions. Most of which were directly answered by the SAP product experts as you can hear in the recording. The high number of incoming questions showed us that there is a big interest in the topic. Many questions referred to the added value of using SAP Master Data Goverenance, cloud edition and federated governance. These are also covered (that is, answered) on the FAQ page for SAP Master Data Governance, cloud edition.
As always, the SAP Community Call was fully packed with information and time was flying. In the end, there were only a few questions left open, and that's why I'd like to cover these now in this blog post:
