Maintenance of Student Master Data You use master data maintenance to create, display, and change student master data. You access master data maintenance from the SAP menu by choosing .
You can also access master data maintenance from the Student File application. In the student file, you can maintain student master data as well as student program data.
The master data maintenance application uses the object manager , which is a convenient user tool for student search and selection.
Note
In the object manager search area, you can also search by last selected students or create your own search variant.
When you create the master data for a student, the system automatically creates an
SAP business partner
for this student. The SAP business partner is an integral element of the
student
object.
The system stores the student’s personal, address and study data in infotype data records. Bank and payment card information, on the other hand, is stored in the business partner master record. Student administration uses the
student
object in processing
,
whereas student financial transactions use the business partner.
In master data maintenance, you can edit the following student master data:
Personal data
