INTRODUCTION

Master data consolidation and mass processing (MDC) is a module which helps in data cleansing.

A standard MDC process has many process steps , and in this blog i am going to share only about

creating the process templates , defining the scope and Activation .

It requires some basic knowledge of MDG , Odata services , BGRFC and authorization objects.
