ZMATVENDOR
- ZMATVENDOR: is an ‘Exception table’ that is stocked in BW
- It contains Material x Vendors duplets
- It is used to identify intra-GBU flows that would otherwise be considered inter-GBU by BW algorithm.
- Impact on: DiP files (FS / ITI / SOB)
This ZMATVENDOR table was historically manually ‘on demand’ by BW team (or Jean-Christophe).
Now, it's automatically populated it on a daily basis
=> we could potentially have new lines everyday
In the medium term, the idea will be to add visibility to DiP team/Key users of its content:
=> How: Export table’s content into a new .csv file so that DiP team can check the content with users. We would need to add a column 'GBU' (GBU of the Material, which is not the GBU of Material x Plant but it's good enough) so that it can be checked quickier
The automation was done by Ismail Ammor on BW side, and coordinated by JC/Pablo on SAP/Dyn side.
