Business Rules & Data Quality Services

A consultant budgets for a separate license and a dedicated server to run BRFplus validations in MDG. What is wrong with that plan?

You built a validation in BRFplus for the material master data model. Why can't the business partner team just reuse that same rule?

In a BRFplus application for MDG, what decides whether a catalog function fires as a validation or as a derivation?

A BRFplus derivation you configured never fires during the MDG change request, even though the logic looks correct. What status should you check first?

Your BRFplus derivation must set a value on one entity based on a field from a different entity. Why will a plain BRFplus derivation function not do it?

What is the operational difference between a CHECK function and a DERIVE function in the MDG BRFplus rule engine?

You need a field required only in one step of one change request type, not everywhere. Why is marking it mandatory in the data model the wrong tool?

A company-specific data quality check is easy to express as a rule. Should you reach for a BAdI implementation?

In BAdI USMD_RULE_SERVICE, what distinguishes CHECK_CREQUEST_START from CHECK_CREQUEST_FINAL?

In BAdI USMD_RULE_SERVICE_CROSS_ET, how does the leading entity's storage and usage type change what you may do with the data?

Default values you coded in USMD_RULE_SERVICE don't appear in an MDG Fiori app. Which BAdI actually supplies defaults there?

In the MDG enrichment framework, what is the division of labor between an enrichment feeder and an enrichment adapter?

A colleague says MDG data quality remediation has always required an external profiling tool like SAP Information Steward. Is that still true?

In the Master Data Quality remediation worklist, when do you set a record to Not Applicable versus Finalized?

Most remediation screens return no records until one Customizing object is in place. Which, and what does it bundle?

You've entered every remediation setting in Transaction MDQIMG, yet you still can't start a remediation process. What configuration lives elsewhere?

Where does SAP Data Quality Management actually run when it standardizes addresses for MDG, and why does that matter?

Business partner screening via SAP Fraud Management returns nothing for a BP you know is risky. What precondition is likely missing?

A team assumes D&B data pulled through SAP S/4HANA Cloud for data enrichment is cached in SAP Cloud Platform for reuse. Why is that risky?

A customer on MDG with SAP ERP wants the data quality management framework (rules, evaluations, quality scores). Can they have it?

How does data quality management differ from the BRFplus checks you configure in central governance, given both use BRFplus rules?

Data quality remediation and the data quality management framework are both S/4HANA-only and product-only, but arrived in different releases. Which came first?

When the remediation validation step runs, which sets of rules can it check records against?
