Background documentationTime Dependency

 

MDG-BP supports time dependency and time validity in restricted scenarios.

In the MDG context time dependency means that one date field is a key field and you can maintain multiple intervals per record. Time validity means that both date fields are only attributes and you can maintain one validity interval per record.

Features

Time dependency for addresses (BUT020), address usages (BUT021_FS) and BP relationships (BUT050)

MDG does not support time dependency, nevertheless time dependency can be switched on in MDG systems without any damage to data. MDG uses the data of the record that is currently valid.

Time validity for bank accounts (BUT0BK), BP ID numbers (BUT0ID), and BP roles (BUT100)

MDG supports time validity. You can add fields from the field list using the screen configuration.

Constraints

Time dependency for central BP data (BUT000)

Caution Caution

MDG does not work or even might destroy active data. Therefore the switch is not allowed to be active within an MDG system.

End of the caution.
