Mass Vendor creation in MDG 9.1

[shar_agar]

Hi Experts,

We are implementing MDG 9 on S/4. Our business wants to mass upload the vendors from data provided in excel workbook. I am wondering if there is an out of box functionality in MDG to create in BP/vendor in mass? I know there is file upload and download functionality but that requires to upload multiples file (one file per entity). We believe that this functionality is not intuitive enough for business to execute it by themselves as it would require knowledge of BP entity model.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi Sharad,

the recommended approach is using the new Consolidation and Mass Processing functionality. There you can easily use the consolidation process to create your new best records for central governance. You have multiple options for data standardization (e.g. key and value mapping, BRF+, other tools such as address standardization, etc.), matching and merging to ensure that your new data is free of duplicates, etc.

Best regards

Michael
