Operational Strategies & Housekeeping

Will the CR archiving run pick up a change request that is currently sitting in a workflow step?

Floorplan Manager screens that use context-based adaptation are slow to start. What single change most directly speeds up the startup prefetch?

In MDG read access logging, what does the 'logging purpose' do beyond just labeling each entry?

MDG housekeeping has three periodic cleanup transactions: DRFRSDEL, DRFLOGDEL, and MDGCPDEL. What does each one actually delete?

For loading many records, when can you legitimately bypass the mandatory change-request workflow in central governance?

Your team wants to use editions to time-box changes to a custom master data object, but the object was built in reuse mode. Can it use editions?

When you create a cost center inside an edition, where does the cost center's own valid-from date come from?

Inside an edition you never enter a valid-to date on a change. So what sets the valid-to of that master data change?

An edition is ready to release, but two of its change requests are still stuck in workflow. How do you release the edition without waiting for them?

For a released edition, what are your choices for when approved change-request data gets replicated downstream?

A colleague on an older MDG release wants to reschedule planned changes across several open editions and use a 'valid on' search. Why can't they?

Which authorization object restricts who may create editions in MDG, and why lock edition creation down so tightly?

During change-request archiving, what decides whether a specific CR is old enough to be archived?
