How do I enable a system as an Application Data Owner in classic mode for federated processes in SAP MDG?

Use this guide to configure an SAP MDG Central Governance system as an Application Data Owner in Classic Mode (ADOCM) for federated processes. The CDO must run on SAP S/4HANA 2023 FPS01 or higher, while the ADO in classic mode can run on SAP S/4HANA 1809 or higher.

This guide explains how to configure an SAP MDG Central Governance system as an Application Data Owner in Classic Mode (ADOCM) for federated processes. The central release requirement is that the Core Data Owner runs on SAP S/4HANA 2023 FPS01 or higher, while the Application Data Owner in classic mode can run on SAP S/4HANA 1809 or higher. The implementation combines Federation customizing, Change Request setup, DRF technical settings, and BAdI/enhancement logic.

Process flow

  1. Complete the general Federation configuration.
  2. Create inbound Change Request types in the ADOCM system.
  3. Configure Change Request step properties.
  4. Configure inbound DRF technical settings.
  5. Add the CDO as an outbound DRF target.
  6. Implement BAdI `MDG_SE_BP_BULK_REPLRQ_IN`.
  7. Implement BAdI `MDG_SE_BP_BULK_REPLRQ_OUT` when client maintenance/outbound changes are required.
  8. Implement BAdI `MDG_BS_SUPPLIER_SI`.
