Master Data Consolidation for Business Partner (1N3)

S/4HANA Cloud Database & Data Management Scope Items

The Master Data Consolidation for Business Partner scope item provides capabilities to load master data from various sources and to detect duplicates during the load process as well as during regular housekeeping activities.

For each of the resulting match groups, the system calculates a best record out of the duplicates in that group using survivorship rules on the master data attributes. These best records can then be used in dedicated analytical or business scenarios.

Optionally, you can import the source file without source system to prevent key mapping generation. This is preferred for the mass creation use case.
