SAP Material Creation Workflow | Structured Text & Data Governance | SiDM Materials Use Case

Описание: In standard SAP, material creation and maintenance often rely on transactions such as MM01/MM02, requiring users to understand complex fields, views, and technical criteria. This frequently results in incomplete requests, inconsistent free-text descriptions, multiple rework cycles between departments, and delays in material master creation.

In this video, we show how SiDM Materials enables configurable workflows for material creation, extension, and modification in SAP, ensuring structured collaboration between departments while improving data quality and governance.
