The Manage Master Data application enables the import of your organization's master data from CSV files, setting it apart from SAP-provided master data, which is accessible in a view-only mode. This app acts as a centralized platform for the management and synchronization of master data across various dimensions. It features the configuration of global parameters and efficient homepage functionality, which streamlines the searching and management of data dimensions. It also provides detailed insights into import status, ESG areas, and DPIs—along with error logging and snapshot management. The role required for using this app is the Data Governance Specialist.
