Note:

This presentation provides an introduction to SAP Master Data

Governance and an overview of the central governance

capabilities of SAP Master Data Governance. This presentation

does not cover the consolidation and mass processing

capabilities of SAP MDG. For these topics, please refer to the

specific decks.

Preface


Master Data ChallengesMaterialize Across the Organization

Reduced Sales Effectiveness Lack of consolidated view of customer data across all channels

Customer transactions are compromised due to limited view of the facts

Sub-optimal Procurement Decisions Lack of transparency relating to suppliers and products

High costs due to insufficient supplier selection and rationalization

Delayed Go-to-Market Process Failure to capitalize on market opportunity when introducing new products

Lack of real-time collaboration with front office, thus hindering customer services

Ineffective Business Decisions Lack of consistent information impedes to make critical decisions supporting innovation

Compromised business dynamics with negative impact on managing resources effectively


All Lines of Businessare impacted by master data quality issues

High master data maintenance

costs

Need for multiple systems to

manage master data in different

domains

Lack of flexibility in dynamic

business environments

Lack of consistent consolidated view of customer data across all channels

Customer transactions are compromised due to a limited view of the facts

Lack of transparency relating to suppliers and products

High costs due to insufficient supplier selection and rationalization

Loss of potential for benefit realization (i.e. discounts, conditions, central contracts)

Limited availability of up-to-date master data in my business network

Inconsistent financial master data

across the enterprise

Manual efforts to update financial

master data in local financial

systems

Risk of non-compliance to IFRS,

SOX etc.

Slow group closes

Lack of transparency about

changes (who, what, when, why)

SAP MDG, consolidation *

Consolidate master data into a single view

for accurate analytics and operational

insight (continuously or on request e.g.

for initial load or mergers & acquisitions)

*) new with SAP MDG 8.0: consolidation of business partner master data


SAP Master Data Governance Centrally govern and consolidate master data for your enterprise

SAP MDG is a state-of-the-art master data mgmt solution, providing out-of-the-box, domain-specific master data governance to centrally create, change and distributeor to consolidate master data across your complete enterprise system landscape

GovernanceEnables governance, compliance and transparency of master data during creation and change through integrated staging, approval and central audit trail

ConsistencyDelivers consistent definition, authorization and replication of key master data entities. Eliminates error prone manual maintenance processes for master data in multiple systems

ConsolidationConsolidate master data in any enterprise system landscape, create best records and key mapping between duplicates, and optionally combine consolidation with central governance for sustained master data quality

IntegrationProvides native integration in SAP solutions, incl. re-use of data model, business logic, and configuration for validation while offering openness to integrate 3rd party services

FlexibilityOpen to extend the standard models and to create governance for your own master data and flexibly for non-SAP environments

SAP MDG SAP ERP

SAP MDG &SAP ERP

Deploy SAP MDG…

… as a standalone system /

a dedicated master data hub

Customers typically choose to…

… create a dedicated master data hub and distribute to all operative systems, or

… co-deploy*) with an existing SAP ERP (e.g. pick one of their SAP ERP’s as the master for a particular domain) and

create and distribute master data from there

… on top of an existing

operational SAP ERP system

*) if speed of innovation in their ERP systems does not allow for quick introduction of SAP MDG, some customers create a separate system first, and re-combine later

SAP MDG Deployment Options Consciously Decide for a Central hub or Co-deployment

EhP8

for SAP ERP 6.0

If installed on EhP8 for SAP ERP 6.0, SAP MDG can run on SAP HANA as primary database

You can also run SAP HANA side-by-side – but not for Master Data Consolidation

*) SAP MDG 8.0 requires at least EhP7 for SAP ERP 6.0


Benefits of optional SAP HANA usage in SAP MDGSAP HANA-based Search and Duplicate Check

Search term and attribute-based

Using a single term as “free-style search” against all

attributes

Search per attribute with dedicated thresholds

Calculated similarity rank

Sorted result by weighted score across all attributes

Powerful duplicate detection

Integrated in process to prevent duplicates from being

even created

High detection quality using SAP HANA fuzzy search and

matching

Similarity score used to identify and sort potential duplicates


Benefits of optional SAP HANA usage in SAP MDGMulti-attribute Drill-down Based on SAP HANA

Slice & dice master data

Filter and analyze the intrinsic structures

in your master data

Find attribute values that need company-wide

harmonization

Find instead of search

Only existing attributes and objects are displayed

No need for guessing, you find what is there

Combined with fuzzy search

Search terms and drill-down can be used together


Master data governance in hybrid landscapesSynchronized master data across on-premise and on-demand solutions

All systems always in synch

Master data creation can happen in on-demand systems, on-

premise systems, or in SAP MDG

De-central creation triggers a process in SAP MDG

After approval, enriched high-quality master data is replicated to

all relevant cloud and on-premise systems

Out-of-the-box, yet adaptable integration

Can be implemented based on standard capabilities,

synchronization e.g. using extendable SOA services

Any system can be involved as source and/or target

Pre-built integration for selected SAP systems

Move to the cloud at your own speed

A master data hub (like MDG) that synchronizes master data

across on-premise and on-demand solutions is a prerequisite for

your system landscape simplification and your step-by-step move

to the cloud

The role of SAP MDG in the context of SAP S/4HANAMDG roadmap is fully integrated and aligned with the S/4HANA roadmap

The role of an SAP MDG hub in a system landscape does not change

Distribute master data to all systems in the landscape: non-SAP systems, SAP Business Suite

systems, SAP S/4HANA systems,…

On-premise or private cloud deployment is supported for SAP MDG

Most companies run SAP MDG as a hub / co-deployment with SAP ERP supported today /

co–deployment with SAP S/4HANA on-premise planned

(Please note that while SAP HANA is still optional for SAP MDG, we will continue to simplify and

optimize MDG on HANA. We plan to provide these improvements with non-disruptive upgrades.)

SAP S/4HANA move is a perfect opportunity to revisit your data quality

Smooth business operations and accurate analytics depend on high-quality (master) data

Support your move to SAP S/4HANA with master data consolidation in SAP MDG

After that, use central governance in SAP MDG to guarantee long-term quality of master data

Integration with SAP S/4HANA Finance available today

SAP S/4HANA Finance can be a distribution target for SAP MDG’s master data

Central Finance can leverage MDG’s centralized master data & key mapping for aligned postings

Co-deployment of SAP MDG and SAP S/4HANA Finance is supported (see also SAP Note 2103558)

also SAP Note 2103558)

This is the current state of planning and may be changed by SAP at any time.
