Hello Experts,
I am beginner and I started to learn MDM.
Please share some sample programs in MDM which use all the fields(tuple,lookup), checkin check out program etc...
Thanks,
Sriram
Hello Sriram,
Tuple
Tuple is a Record template which groups together similar fields. you can also have multi level nesting (i.e Tuple inside a Tuple)
Eg: Below we have a Tuple(Contact tuple) inside another Tuple (Address Tuple) where Address is the Parent tuple and Contact is the Child Tuple
Address Tuple has the below fields
Street - Text
Street2 - Text
House number - Text
city - Text
country - Lookup Flat
Contact Tuple (This tuple has fields, Mobile number, Office Phone Number)
Lookup Main
Field type "Lookup main" can be used to link records across Main tables or within the same main table. This can be multivalued.
Eg: A Supplier may be linked to several Products, in this case you have two Main tables (Supplier & Products) and you will create a Lookup main field in Supplier table which looks up into the Products table, here you can link Suppliers to products.
Please refer the below links

Please refer Page 61 - Tuples of the below link
Check In/Out
Records are checked out by a user in order to protect them from being Modified by another user and once the modifications are performed they are checked back in, during the period in which the record is checked out, then users will see the original version of the record (Users can see both the versions of the record by right clicking on the record in the Records pane and Selecting All versions command in Checkin/out from the context menu)
Please refer Page 156 - Checkin/Checkout of the below link

Hi Sriram,
Do you mean sample scenarios?
If yes as said above
1. Tuples are used to when you want to group together similar fields, these fields can be defined once and used multiple times.eg. Address tuple
2. Lookup main is used when you want to to link records accross main tabled. eg. one supplier may be associated with several products.
3. Records are Checkout/checkin to avoid other users from editing the record when under process and checkin back once the modification is complete to make the modified record available to users.
Rgds,
Prasad.
