How to use the Masks in SRM-MDM catalog?

[Former Member]

Hi Expert,

We are at SRM-MDM catalog 3.0.

There have two types of SRM contracts were transferd to one MDM catalog repository, and we config two different number range for these contract types. We will creat two web services in SRM IMG, only the same number ramge of the contracts could diaplay in one web service.

As this requirement, may be the MDM function Masks could be a solution I think. But when I try to separate the contracts with two masks in MDM Data Manager, I have no idea that how could I set the key filter with the contract number fields.

Could every expert tell me how could i set the Masks as this situation?

Hi Expert,

1. I create a Masks in Data Manager, and assign a part of items in repository to the Masks.

2. Add the masks into the catalog call structure.

3. Go to the search UI for this repository.

4. All the items are diaplayed in the result list.

Why the masks dose not work?

Hi

Have you assigned the masks created in data manager to some role in Console(Console-Roles TableRole1-Table and fields tabMask--add Mask 1 say)

Once the mask is assigned to the role then only the role can see records pertaining to that mask else it can see all the records in the repository.
