Pls check

Master data is data that remains unchanged over a long period of time. Master data contains information that is always needed in the same way. Characteristics can bear master data in BW. With master data you are dealing with attributes, texts or hierarchies.

The master data of a cost center contains the name, the person responsible, the relevant hierarchy area, and so on.

The master data of a supplier contains the name, address, and bank details.

The master data of a user in the SAP system contains his/her access authorizations to the system, the standard printer, start transaction, and so on.

Transaction-specific data that is short-lived and assigned to certain master data.

Individual posting documents are called transaction data. For example, transaction data relating to sales development can be assigned to a vendor's master data. The total sales of a vendor consist of the data of the individual business transactions, the transaction data.
