Managing data quality requires more than a workflow. Using Winshuttle, you can deploy a Composer solution to ensure first-time-right data entry at a particular point in time. But what if the rules change over time? How do you identify non-compliant records? Mass changes are easily done with a Studio/Excel solution, but the rules you have defined within Composer cannot be reused in Excel. In the attached paper I propose a framework for data quality management and describe a use case, whereby the data quality rules are centrally maintained in SAP BRF+ and reused by all Winshuttle applications.
Using SAP BRF+ offers multiple advantages:
- Centrally maintained set of data rules;
- Robust applications, independant of rules
- Generated ABAP-code
- S/4HANA readiness
If you are alreay using SAP Business Rules Framework, or if you are intending to create a complete data management solution, this paper may be helpful.
