How do I implement the MDG G/L Account Copy process where a requestor copies a G/L account, sends it to Primary/Alternate Approval, and then to final MDG approval?
In the TC21 MDG G/L Account Copy scenario, the requestor copies a G/L account from Manage G/L Account Centrally - Governance, completes the copied fields and mandatory change request reason/notes, then the CR is routed to Primary/Alternate Approval and finally to Master Data Governance for final approval. After final approval, the G/L account is available in MDG and replicated to S/4 HANA.

In the TC21 MDG G/L Account Copy scenario, the requestor starts from Manage G/L Account Centrally - Governance, searches by Account group, selects a source G/L account, and uses the copy option with COA and company code data. The copied change request requires a G/L account number, name, CR type, edition, and company code selection, and it must pass validation before submission.
