Requesting Master Data Changes via Internet/Intranet 

Use

Beginning with Release 4.6C, you can request master data changes via the Intranet/Internet. The request can be to create, change, delete, or lock any of the following master data:

You fill out a request form for the master data change in the Intranet/Internet. In the form, you can decribe the problem/reason.

When you send the form, the system determines who the responsible processor is or the processing group, based on entries made in Customizing.

The processor receives the request in his/her inbox or workflow inbox in the SAP R/3 System. The request form can be accessed from there, as can the transactions needed for processing master data. Before changes are posted, you can set up an approval process in the system.

Note

The standard system includes scenarios for requesting master data changes. You can use them as templates for creating your own scenarios.
The following scenarios are supported:
