Assignments on Tuples supported in SP08! Is this true?

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

As per the recently published blog on SDN named [Why you should upgrade to MDM 7.1 SP08!|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/27015] [original link is broken] [original link is broken];

Data Manager allows to define assignments on tuples!

Is this True?

Has anyone tried this?

If it is true, then it's a really great value addition.

Hi All,

The below mention is excerpt from the document:

2.2 Data Manager

The Data Manager has also been improved with alot of new features but the features around displaying tuples are definitely worth mentioning: In record mode you are now able to display the tuple based hierarchies mentioned previously. Also data structure referring to a other main table are displayed in a u201Cbuild inu201D modus. You can even navigate to the linked record and the Data Manager will automatically guide you to the corresponding table and/or record.

Expressions can now be copied in the expression editor. The SAP MDM Data Manager as well:

Displays now who/which user has checked out a record,

Displays with the new SP directly the remote keys within the record mode and

Is able to define assignments on tuples!

Is able to do mass updates on Tuples.

The value is obviously: Reduce implementation cost for the project manager; less stressed developer or data modeler.

I guess this is not a valid comment,SAP should confirm on this!

Thanks,

Ravi
