SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) Functional Training FAQ's

SAP MDG is used to create, change, and govern master data (customer, vendor/supplier, material, finance) through standardized workflows, validations, approvals, and audit trails to ensure data quality and consistency.

This is functional training. It focuses on business processes, governance concepts, change request lifecycle, workflow understanding, and how MDG supports master data control. (Technical configuration and development topics are not the main focus.)

Basic SAP knowledge is recommended. If you understand SAP navigation and master data basics, you can learn MDG more comfortably.

Typically, MDG domains include Customer, Supplier/Vendor, Material, and Finance-related objects. Coverage may vary based on the course plan and version.
