# Manage master data inbox

With Master Data Management Studio you can send specific data in these ways:

- **Internal direct**: Send master data from the source company in D365 F&SCM directly to a target company within the same D365 F&SCM environment.
- **Internal with staging**: Send data from the source company to a generic staging journal. The target company triggers the message to send the data from the staging journal to the target company.
- **External**: Send data from the source company to an external file format or application.

In the target company, you primarily work on the **Master data inbox** page. On this page you can monitor the master records that:

- The source company is about to send.
- The source company has sent.
- Are waiting in the staging journal.

For a visual introduction to controlling inbound master data in Master Data Management Studio, see the video below.
