Is the Best practice for Master Data in S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition No Longer Being Updated?

[yrjin]

Hello,
Is the BP (Best Practice) related to Master Data for S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition no longer being updated?

I found this site, but I couldn't find any versions beyond 2208.

I checked both SAP for Me and the SAP Signavio Process Navigator, but I couldn't find the BP documents for master data.

Is 2208 the latest version of the Master Data BP documents? If there is a more recent version, could you please provide guidance on where to find it?

Thank you in advance.

Hello @yrjin 

Thank you for your message.

As of today, the SAP Best Practices for Master Data Management in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition are still actively maintained, but their content and versioning have evolved along with SAP's new release and documentation platforms.

You are correct that the 2208 version appears to be the last explicitly documented standalone Master Data Best Practice on some older portals. However, from release 2302 onward, master data BPs have been modularised and integrated into specific Line-of-Business (LoB) and scope item content. These can now be accessed via the SAP Signavio Process Navigator.

Where to Find the Latest Master Data Best Practices:

• Go to: SAP Signavio Process Navigator
• Filter by:
• Product: SAP S/4HANA Cloud, public edition
• Line of Business: Master Data or relevant LoB (e.g., Finance, Procurement)
• Release: Choose latest (e.g., 2402)
• Look for scope items like:
• 1XV – Business Partner Master Data
• 1YB – Material Master Data
• 2LD – Product Master Data Integration

Thank you for your response and detailed guidance. After following the suggested steps in the SAP Signavio Process Navigator, I encountered some inconsistencies: 1XV – This scope item appears to be associated with SAP S/4HANA for Enterprise Contract Management rather than Master Data. 1YB –This scope item is linked to Import Connection Setup with SAP Analytics Cloud (1YB), which also seems unrelated to Master Data. 2LD – Unfortunately, I was unable to locate this scope item in the SAP Signavio Process Navigator. Could you please confirm if the mentioned scope items are correct for Master Data, or provide additional clarification? It would also be helpful if you could share specific steps or a direct link to access these Master Data Best Practices within the SAP Signavio Process Navigator.
