In Master Data Management Studio, you define where you want to send your data to and who can do so.
Company types
You can set up companies of these types:
Type | Description |
|---|---|
Standard | Set up a standard company for each D365 F&SCM company that you use to distribute master data. A standard company is required for each source and each target company. For each standard company, define the data stewards. A data steward is a user in D365 F&SCM who can send and release master data for the source company and can receive the data for the target company.
|
External | Set up an external company for each external application to which you want to send master data. |
Target group | If you send the same data in the same way to several companies, you can group these companies in a target group. You are advised to use separate groups for standard companies and external companies. The data stewards, as defined in the standard companies, are also used for a target group. |
Hierarchy | You can use an organization hierarchy to define the source company and target companies for master data distribution. To be able to use an organization hierarchy for master data distribution, set up a company of type Hierarchy and link the organization hierarchy to it.
