Hi,

I don't have too much knowledge about MDM security model.

Anyhow, you will have two choices:

1) Build your own RTA for GRC AC RAR and MDM integration

2) Use data extraction approach

For the second option, you will basically have to:

- Define you MDM SoD Matrix (SAP do not provide out of the box SoD Matrix for MDM)

- Build MDM data extractors (in order to pull out authorizations info)

- Load into RAR MDM auth data extracted

Hope it helps. Regards,

Just to point out that if MDM uses UME roles (sorry but I am not familiar with MDM model security) you could just use standard eRTA provided by SAP.

Hi SV,

As I understand SAP MDM users UME and PFCG roles , hence SAP GRC Access Control can be used for risk analysis.

You can check the documents on Access Control from the below SDN link
