Edit vendor

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

We are receiving request for vendor creation on E-portal. Once request is send by user on portal it get recorded at backend i.e. MDM. Once this vendor is approved from MDM, vendor gets created in SAP.

But if again send edit request for same vendor on portal, in MDM it is showing two records for same vendor. One is locked (cannot be modify), other is u201Ccheck outu201D. due to which when we open this request on portal, all feild entries showing to be blank. this request we can not be process due to blank entries.

Please guide me...

Hello Gaurang,

When you check-out a record in MDM...

1 - Original record gets locked and not available for modification...

2 - Another virtual record will get created, which appear as "checked-out".

Make sure that you are using check-in and check-out in all the relevant places of your workflow.

Hi Gaurang,

You can write a validation in EP using API which will check if the record is checked out in MDM and can stop users from editing the record.
