MDM's Source ECC System Splitting into Two

Former Member
0 Kudos

We are running MDM 5.5 and have a single source ECC system, PR1_400, that serves two divisions (Europe and North America). Our company is going to create a separate ECC system for the European division and leave PR1_400 for NA.

The problem is that all of the data in MDM has key mappings to PR1_400 and the European items will need to become tied to XYZ_400. Has anyone experienced such a change and have recommendations?

Thank you.

We just did an initial load from the new (split) system and went back and manually cleaned up old data.

Hi Keith

If you haven't installed syndication server - install it

You haven't configured remote systems and inbound/outbound ports in your repository

1) stop repository

2) create two remote systems (EU and AF for example)

3) create inbound/outbound ports for remote systems

4) set "key mapping" parameters in main table to "Yes"

5) load repository

6) Syndicate or save form Data Manager all data to files

7) Create import maps in Import manager for all source files( and save its in repository

😎 stop repository

9) go to inbound/outbound ports and select early saved map files for automatically load data

10) start repository

11) put source file to inbound directories

12) start syndication server

13) wait when import process was done

14) load data manager (you see triple records from EU from AF and with empty "edit key mappings" properties)

15) select matching mode and turn matching rules for key fields

16) run matching process

17) merge tree to one record

18) after that one result record had tree remote systems in "edit key mappings" propeties

manually

do step 1-10 if it need

11) stay ro record and load "edit key mappings" propeties

12) push add button select remote system

13) push OK

14) dublicate records

15) do step 12-13 only select another remote system

16) do that steps 11-15 for all records

17) do steps 15-18 but with two identical records

finish
