help SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) FAQ
What does SAP Master Data Governance manage?
SAP Master Data Governance helps organizations control shared records such as customers, suppliers, materials, and other core business objects. The goal is to keep those records accurate and consistent across connected systems.
Why do companies use SAP MDG?
Companies use it to reduce duplicate, incomplete, or conflicting master records. A governed process can make ownership, approval, and data quality clearer across departments.
Is SAP MDG a database?
It is more than a database. SAP MDG provides governance workflows, validation, approvals, and replication so master data can be created and distributed under controlled rules.
How does SAP MDG help prevent data silos?
It provides a central governance process for records that are used by multiple systems. Approved data can then be shared with connected SAP or non-SAP applications instead of being maintained separately in each department.
