Master data management functionality

Posted on by CU27040937-0

Hello,

I would like to know if the functionality of /Master data management/ also delates data. For example, I have created a vendor in the source company. This vendor has been correctly synchronized. But, when I delate the vendor in the source company, then the vendor is not delated in the destination company.
Do I have to delate the vendor manually in all companies? When I delate a data in the source company this data is not delated in the sync companies?

Thank you,

Delete is not supported as part of the master data management. This is to prevent unwanted loss of data.

So you will have to do the delete in each company.

There will also be situations where you can delete a record in the master company but you might have data in another company that will prevent you from deleting that specific record.

Unfortunately, delete is not supported for an understandable reason. This is designed to prevent accidental deletion of master on other companies.

If delete is not supported, what is the purpose of the “Delete” column in the “Integration Synchronization Jobs” page?

Hello,
this is standard behavior: Master Data Management does not propagate deletions from the source company to subsidiary companies, specifically to prevent accidental data loss or deletion of records already used in transactions; therefore, deleting a vendor in the source leaves the synchronized vendor in each destination company, where it must be deleted manually if allowed—or blocked instead when historical transactions exist.
