Example: Data Provider and Data Origin
Three SAP Systems with the SAP Product Safety component 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 |
The names of the SAP Systems with the SAP Product Safety component 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 the SAP Product Safety component (import and export), data origin and data provider are taken into account. In this way, you avoid an undesired overlap of data areas.
