Example: Data Provider and Data Origin

Three SAP systems with Product Safety and Stewardship are employed in a chemical company. The systems are used by different departments:

Data Origin	Data Provider
System 1	Pharmaceuticals
System 2	Cosmetics
System 3	Dyes Adhesives Fuels

Data Origin

Data Provider

System 1

Pharmaceuticals

System 2

Cosmetics

System 3

Dyes

Adhesives

Fuels

The names of the SAP systems with Product Safety and Stewardship are used for the data origin, and the names of the departments are used for the data providers.

When data is transferred either from or to Product Safety and Stewardsjoü (import and export), data origin and data provider are taken into account. In this way, you avoid an undesired overlap of data areas.
