Master Data Matchup
Use
The SAP Product Safety component provides the following functions in master data matchup:
This function determines all characteristics with data type CHAR30 to which phrases can therefore be assigned. These characteristics are transferred to characteristic - phrase set assignment where you can assign corresponding phrase sets (see
Phrase Set-to-Attribute Assignment). At the same time, the system deletes all characteristics that still exist in the assignment but no longer in the SAP System.Use this function if you have created new characteristics for a class of class type 100 (value assignments) in the SAP Classification System.
This function assigns a special dialog box as possible entries function to all characteristics to which a phrase set was assigned in phrase set-characteristic assignment. You use this dialog box to assign phrases of the assigned phrase set to the characteristic.
This function activates all fields that are available for technically assigning phrase sets. (The function writes the relevant fields to the table TCG66.) The relevant fields are currently part of the SAP components Dangerous Goods Management and Waste Management, for example.
You define report templates using
symbols.Master data matchup enables you to automatically generate symbols for each characteristic, table field, and structure field. For example, if you have created new characteristics for a value assignment type, you can use this function to generate symbols for these characteristics.
When generating symbols, the system takes all table fields into account that have been entered in the IMG activity Specify R/3 Tables for Report Symbol Generation in Customizing for Product Safety.
For information on important table and structure fields, see
When you choose the Generate symbols function, the SAP System generates the symbol descriptions in the logon language. To generate the description subsequently in a different language, you can use the Regenerate symbol descriptions function.
This function updates the symbol definitions for characteristic symbols that have been changed from non phrase-related to phrase-related (or vice versa).
For phrase characteristics, the system sets the report symbol group to 00 in Product Safety Customizing.
(You can check the Customizing entries in the detail screen of the IMG activity Check and Specify Report Symbols.)
From SAP EH&S Release 2.5A, you execute the functions Set delete indicator and Delete physically in Customizing for Product Safety using the IMG activity Set Up Job for Deleting Data.
