How do I use the SAP MDG Customizing Object List as a project-specific synchronization template?

Use the guide as a template, not as a universal mandatory list. Build a project-specific set of Customizing objects for your governed MDG domains, filter Material items by the Level column, add missing dependencies, remove irrelevant objects, restrict values where only part of the Customizing is governed, and then synchronize and test the resulting list between the MDG hub and client systems.

The SAP guide for Customizing synchronization is meant to help you build a project-specific object list for MDG, not to force one universal set of tables. Start with the relevant domain section, compare each object against your governed fields and entities, remove irrelevant entries, and add project-specific dependencies that are missing from the template.

Process flow

  1. Identify the MDG domains in scope: Finance, Business Partner/Customer/Supplier, Material, or a combination.
  2. Start with the corresponding object list from the guide.
  3. Compare each table or object against the governed entities, fields, and values in your project.
  4. For Material, use the Level column to include only the levels that are in governance scope.
  5. For BP/C/S, review SAP Note 2221398 and the Value Help column for additional dependencies.
  6. Remove objects that are not relevant to the project.
  7. Add any missing project-specific dependencies not covered by the template.
  8. Restrict table values where only a subset of Customizing is governed and approved for replication or synchronization.
