Material master change

Preface

The document describes the Workflow design and objects as developed to indicate Material Master Change.

The objective of the workflow is to initiate the workflow whenever the part class in the Material Master is updated. The changes are captured using the change document object. The change document object is processed inorder to get the details about the change and a mail notification is sent to the master data group with the details of the change.

Overview

Many commercial objects are frequently changed. It is often useful, or even necessary, to be able to trace the changes made. If changes are logged, you can find out at any time, what was changed and when and how the change was made. This can sometimes make the analysis of errors easier.

Changes are logged in change documents, which can be created for actual or planned changes.
