What type of workflow is most commonly used for change requests in SAP MDG?

In SAP Master Data Governance (MDG), the most commonly used type of workflow for change requests is rule-based workflows. These workflows are designed to automate the approval process based on predefined rules. When a change request is initiated in MDG, the system evaluates the defined rules and determines the appropriate steps the request must go through, including any necessary approvals from relevant stakeholders.

Rule-based workflows allow for flexibility and control, enabling organizations to tailor the approval processes based on their specific data governance policies. They can incorporate various decision criteria which ensures that all necessary checks are performed before the change is finalized. This systematic approach enhances compliance, providing a structured method for tracking and managing changes effectively.

In contrast, direct inline workflows may not offer the same level of configurability as rule-based workflows, limiting their use in complex change request scenarios. Event-driven workflows focus more on actions triggered by specific events rather than systematic approval processes. Streamlined workflows, while efficient in certain situations, might be too simplified for more complex change request requirements that need comprehensive validation and approval processes.
