Managing and Monitoring Master Data

As part of the initial Rural Sourcing Management system setup, a master data set was created on the back end your administrator with input and direction from SAP personnel.

The Master Data option of the main menu on the Rural Sourcing Management system's Web interface contains multiple tabs, indicating the types of master data that you can monitor and edit. The data that you can manage corresponds to the data sheets initially created during system setup, as described in the "Initial Master Data Setup" topic of the Administration Guide. The tabs include:
  • Organizations - Use this tab to edit existing organizations and add new organizations.
  • Persons - Use this tab to edit personal details, activate and deactivate users, and assign roles.
  • Products - Use this tab to view the full product list, activate or deactivate existing products, or add new products.
  • Certifications - Use this tab to view the certifications list, activate or deactivate a certification, or add new certifications to the system.
