How does SAP MDG deal with changes in master data that are not approved?

SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) offers a structured approach to manage and maintain master data, ensuring that changes made to this data are not only tracked but also subject to an approval process.

When it comes to changes that are proposed for the master data, they must undergo a rigorous review and approval process. If changes are deemed inappropriate or need further discussion, users have the ability to reject these proposed alterations. This feature is crucial as it safeguards the integrity of the master data by allowing stakeholders to actively participate in the data governance process and make collective decisions. It enforces accountability and maintains high-quality standards for the master data by ensuring that only validated, necessary changes are implemented while providing a clear audit trail of decisions made.

The ability to reject proposed changes serves as a vital control mechanism that prevents unwanted or erroneous data from being adopted into the system. This not only helps in maintaining accurate data but also enhances the overall reliability of the master data management framework within SAP MDG.
