The areas in SAP MDG for which the fiori applications are built and grouped are as follows
- Lean Request Apps
- Approval Apps
- MDG Consolidation & Mass Processing Apps
Lean Request Apps in MDG
The SAP Fiori lean request Apps for Master Data Governance are targeted towards a business user who does not have much expertise in master data handling, but would like to create a new organization for areas such as customer and supplier. With limited information, they can easily send a request to the master data expert using the SAP Fiori application. The following SAP Fiori applications are delivered out-of-the-box for the MDG lean request scenario:
- Request Customer
- Request Supplier
- Request Business Partner
- Request Material
- Request Cost Center
- Request Profit Center
- Track My Requests
Key Features
- Lean requestor form for a user new to MDG
- Separate forms to create a customer as an organization and a person
- Automatically generated list of potential duplicates
- You can customize the Duplicates button to display the + sign when a certain number of duplicates are found (for example, 20+).
- Option to upload attachments containing request details
- When you upload an attachment, the Reason for Request field is automatically filled with the text Check attached documents.
- Track My request UI to track the request status
- Address format that automatically changes to EU or US when you enter the country
Request Customer
Request Supplier
Request Material
Request Business Partner
Request Cost Center
Request Profit Center
Track My Requests
Key Features
- Use a lean UI for tracking the requests created by the user
- View the number of requests over a set time period. You can customize the time period of the number of requests displayed, for example, 15 requests in last 30 days; 6 requests in last 7 days.
- See requests broken into 3 categories In process, Approved, and Rejected.
- Take the option to filter requests by master data type, for example, all customer requests
- Personalize your view, for example, add or remove columns
Approval Apps in MDG
Approve Master Data
Key Features
- Approve or reject MDG Master Data
- Display only the changed data to approver for approval of master data
- Navigate to details of changed data when requested by approver
- Display only fields which have data entered by the requestor
- Display only relevant data based on authorization. For example, if a user is authorized to see data for a specific company code, they would not see data for other company codes.
- Display all requests of step type 2 (Approve) to approver in the inbox by default. You can extend the app to include requests in other steps, that need only approval without editing data, by extending the back end classes.
MDG – Consolidation
Key Features
- Consolidation for SAP business partner, customer, supplier, material master, and custom objects
- Process UI to start and monitor consolidation processes for all tables and fields including edit capabilities
- Integration of standardization capabilities, including BRFplus integration
- Matching capabilities to identify duplicates
- Match review UI to approve or reject matching results
- Configurable best-record calculation
- Best record calculation UI to check and amend the result data
- Analytics for each process step including drill-down capabilities
- Split and remove data from the process (also available as a background step)
- Flexible governance and collaboration for post-processing through optional integration with change request process
- Support of multiple assignments for business partner
- Manual deletions in Best Record Calculation
- Allow re-validation when changing data Process analytics
MDG – Mass Processing
Key Features
- Administrators can prepare templates called configurations for frequently executed change scenarios. These configurations enable users to perform their tasks without the need to understand field and table structures in detail.
- You can use the file upload feature to upload changes to business objects in .XLSX and .CSV format (using a semi-colon as a delimiter).
- The system executes processing in the background, enabling users to close the application and check the status later. You can also save a Mass Processing run and come back to work on it later.

Filter by Application component CA-MDG for MDG specific applications
Great summary!
Please see also: https://help.sap.com/fiori -> SAP Fiori Apps Reference Library (https://fioriappslibrary.hana.ondemand.com/sap/fix/externalViewer/ )
Best is to filter by application component CA-MDG
Thanks for the suggestion Andreas, Will include that link as well into the reference section.

Hello Andreas,
is the access of the fully featured MDG Webdynpros (request, approval, inbox, myCRs, etc..) from FIORI tiles already officially supported by SAP ? Or is it still required to use NWBC to launch the MDG Webdynpros even with the new MDG on S/4 HANA releases such as 1909 ? If yes, is there a corresponding how to configuration guide available ? Would the configuration be similar as for the Lean MDG FIORI Apps which seems to be explained under the following link ? https://help.sap.com/viewer/4e12a4b577444a7dbdd33016683c50a8/2.0%202017-05/de-DE/9ae63d531c0d0350e10000000a44176d.html
Which roles would need to be used in that case ?
We would like to have and use FIORI tiles for at least the following full MDG Webdynpro applications:
1.MDG FIORI Tile 1 “Search & process Business Partner”
Text EN: Search & process Business Partner
WD Application: BS_OVP_BP
WD Appl. config: BS_OVP_BP_ALL
2.MDG FIORI Tile 2 “My Change Requests”
Text EN: My Change Requests
WD Application: USMD_EDITION_CREQUEST
WD Appl. config: USMD_EDITION_CREQUEST
Parameter SYUNAME = X
3. MDG FIORI Tile 3 “My workflow inbox”
Text EN: My workflow inbox
WD Application: IBO_WDA_INBOX
WD Appl. config: USMD_CREQUEST_POWL
4. MDG FIORI Tile 4 “Search open Change Requests”
Text EN: Search open Change Requests
WD Application: USMD_EDITION_CREQUEST
WD Appl. config: USMD_EDITION_CREQUEST

Michael
Hi Michael,
the official state is as given in the SAP Fiori Apps Reference Library

For example, you will find there:

for Master Data Specialist - Business Partner Data
including all information required for implementation and use, which includes Fiori catalog or business role.

Hello Andreas,
thank you very much for your fast reply. I was not referring to the Lean MDG Fiori requester and approval Apps nor the MDG consolidation Apps which seem to be discussed in this blog but to the fully featured MDG Webdynpros for MDG-BP, MDG-C and MDG-S but I believe you understood and pointed me to the right corresponding SAP Fiori Apps in the SAP Fiori Apps Reference Library area.
I have additional questions:
Regards,
Michael
Hi Michael,
have you read what is written in the SAP Fiori Apps Reference Library? In particular the BS_OVP_BP app mentioned? These are the Web Dynpro based applications you are asking for. Please disregard the "Fiori" in the SAP Fiori Apps Reference Library - the library includes also these Web Dynpro applications that are made accessible via the Fiori launchpad. ... and for which you are asking for 🙂
Best regards
Andreas
Hello Andreas,
thanks for pointing me to the BS_OVP_BP App. I found it performing a search in “All Apps” within the SAP FIORI Apps Reference Library. Indeed the title SAP “FIORI” Apps Reference Library first confused me and I did not even consider searching for the MDG Webdynpro Application names.
If I have any further questions I will come back to you.
Have a good weekend for now.
Regards,
Michael
