Use

This function allows SAP Supply Network Collaboration (SAP SNC) to automatically complete missing master data in inbound XML messages. You can configure master data completion for locations. In Customizing, you specify how SAP SNC is to determine locations from business partner data. To do this, you can create a master data completion profile for every inbound message interface and every process type, by providing data for the master data completion process. You can also maintain the settings for recipient and sender, on a partner-dependent basis.

Integration

Master data completion is an element of inbound message processing .

Prerequisites

We deliver standard settings for master data completion for those message interfaces for which a standard integration (XI mappings) with an SAP ERP and SAP APO system is delivered. To check these standard settings and make further settings for additional message interfaces, you use the Customizing activity Maintain Settings for Master Data Completion in Customizing for Supply Network Collaboration . Choose  Basic Settings Processing Inbound and Outbound Messages Maintain Settings for Master Data Completion.

You can use the BAdI: Master Data Completion (/SCA/DM_MD_COMP) Business Add-In (BAdI) to complete or override the standard settings, for example, to implement more complex algorithms for master data completion.
