Business Context and Use

Master Data Governance for Financials (MDGF) provides a central place to maintain the master data used in financial processes and provides consistent data throughout the enterprise. It is designed to eliminate manual distribution of financial master data and facilitates regulatory compliance by enabling time-dependent versioning of master data and system integrated change and approval processes.

MDGF uses asynchronous SOA services for the distribution of approved master data changes. For data replication from MDGF, a corresponding replication request service is called to update master data.

In the remote systems, another confirmation service is then used to send a processing status back to MDGF. 

The Request Profit Centre Replication as Bulk operation distributes profit center master data in bulk from MDGF into Financial Accounting systems.

Features

  • This service operation reads master data for profit centers from the relevant editions in FIN-MDM , and maps the generic FIN-MDM data fields to the fixedfields of the relevant message data type proxy. 

  • After the field mapping, SOA messages are created and are sent using P2P or PI technology to the connected Financial Accounting systems as bulk messages.

  • We recommend that you use SMT Mappings to map the data model fields in FIN-MDM to the fixed fields of the message data  type.

Error Handling

In the event any errors during outbound processing, messages are added to the application log for later analysis.Such a log is always available in the distribution monitor of FIN MDM and can be analyzed there.

Message Types

  • ProfitCentreReplicationBulkRequest

Prerequisites

  • SOAMANAGER configuration has been completed and is working.

  • Outbound implementation is available.

  • SMT Mappings are available and/or relevant Business Add-In (BAdI)-methods are implemented.

  • Customizing for the data replication framework is maintained and is complete:

    • DRF application is defined in DRFIMG.

    • Proper outbound implementation is assigned to DRF application.

    • SMT mappings for relevant entity types are assigned to DRF application.

  • Edition with profit center data has been released in FIN-MDM for distribution. 

  • Since FIN-MDM services do not replicate customizing data, all customizing steps must be carried out in back-end systems. 

Constraints

The message type used for this service operation has the following constraints:

See service interface "ProfitCentreReplicationBulkRequest".

Notes on SAP Implementation

Enhancements

The USMD_SE_PC_RPLCTN Business Add-In (BAdI) is available for this operation. It is used to redefine standard mappings or for customer enhancements during outbound processing. The relevant interface method is called IF_EX_USMD_PC_RPLCTN~OUTBOUND_PROCESSING.
