Hi Rams,

If you are a beginner in MDM,I feel there is no better guide to start with than the MDM reference guides.

The ref guides are four major pdf documents covering the four MDM components which you will use for performing Master data mangemnet.

1) MDM Console

2) MDM Data Manager

3) MDM Import Manager

4) MDM Syndicator.

Before you start going through these Documents all you need is a fair idea about what is Master data all about ,where it is used,why it is used and what are all the problems one are facing with master data.

Once you are through these ref guide syou can avail many other online documents on MDM which are available on many sites including SDN,SAP help.com etc.

Kindly refer to the links provided by Nitin for the ref guides.

It will introduce you to the world of MDM in a systematic way.

Hope it helped

Kindly reward points if found useful

Thanks & Regards

Simona

Hi,

Master data is the core data of an enterprise that exists independently of specific business transactions and is referenced in business transactions. It builds the foundation for the smooth execution of business processes and well-informed business decisions. Master data represents business objects rather than business transactions and is rarely changed over a long period of time. The following objects are among a company’s most important master data objects:

● Product

● Customer

● Supplier

● Employee

SAP MDM

SAP Master Data Management (SAP MDM)enables master data on customers, partners and products to be consolidated and harmonized across the enterprise, making it available to all staff and business partners. A key component of SAP NetWeaver, SAP MDM ensures data integrity across all IT systems.

The SAP NetWeaver Master Data Management (SAP NetWeaver MDM) component of SAP NetWeaver creates the preconditions for enterprise services and business process management. The functionality represents customers, products, employees, vendors, and user-defined data objects in unified form. With SAP NetWeaver MDM, customers can manage master data and supplemental content, such as texts, PDF documents, high-resolution images, or diagrams in a central business information warehouse.

SAP Master Data Management (SAP MDM) is a component of SAP's NetWeaver product group and is used as a platform to consolidate, cleanse and synchronise a single version of the truth for master data within a heterogeneous application landscape. It has the ability to distribute internally and externally to SAP and non-SAP applications. SAP MDM is a key enabler of SAP Enterprise Service-Oriented Architecture. Standard system architecture would consist of a single central MDM server connected to client systems through SAP Exchange Infrastructure using XML documents, although connectivity without SAP XI can also be achieved. There are five standard implementation scenarios:

Content Consolidation - centralised cleansing, de-duplication and consolidation, enabling key mapping and consolidated group reporting in SAP BI. No re-distribution of cleansed data.

Master Data Harmonisation - as for Content Consolidation, plus re-distribution of cleansed, consolidated master data.

Central Master Data Management - as for Master Data Harmonisation, but all master data is maintained in the central MDM system. No maintenance of master data occurs in the connected client systems.

Rich Product Content Management - Catalogue management and publishing. Uses elements of Content Consolidation to centrally store rich content (images, PDF files, video, sound etc.) together with standard content in order to produce product catalogues (web or print). Has standard adapters to export content to DTP packages.

Global Data Synchronization - provides consistent trade item information exchange with retailers through data hubs (e.g. 1SYNC) Some features (for example, workflow) require custom development out of the box to provide screens for end users to use.

Ram,

Here users can provide links only with different material of MDM:

you can search on MDM forum there are so many things about MDM pdfs, links etc etc.... just type mdm documents guides or different search criteria you will find a lot of things here and in google also

MDM SP06:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_mdmgds55/helpdata/EN/43/D7AED5058201B4E10000000A11466F/frameset.htm

This is bible every thing is inherited from this in some way.

If you want MDM PDF guides download them from service market place. just you require a valid userid and password for that.
