MDM Console
The MDM Console allows the system manager to administer and monitor the MDM Server, and to create, maintain the structure of, and control access to the MDM repositories themselves. Records are not entered or managed with the MDM Console, but rather with client apps such as the MDM Client.
MDM Client(data manager)
The MDM Client is the primary client of the MDM Server, and is the program most users see on their PCs. It allows users to store, manage and update master data consisting of text, images, and other rich content, and to create taxonomies, families, and relationships. Other clients include the Import Manager, the Image Manager, and the Syndicator.
Import Manager
Allows you to import master data from most types of flat or relational electronic
source files (e.g. Excel, delimited text, SQL, XML, and any ODBC-compliant source),
and to restructure, cleanse, and normalize master data as part of the import process.
<i>2. How the 3 is interlinked</i>
--->
Suppose you are sending vendor information to MDM repository be sending IDOC from R/3. Then the whole process can go as... IDOC will be sent to XI, so XI will generate XML file that contains data. Then import manager can import this file and will so place the data in repository.
Now if you want to send data in MDM repository, the process goes reverse way. Syndicator will generate flat/xml file. This file will be given to XI so that XI will generate IDOC out of it and will send it to XI. This whole process ensures data consistancy
