6. MDM change records

6. Which statement is true?

a. MDM can send changed records through API
b. MDM can send changed records through Syndicator
c. MDM can send changed fields through API and Syndicator
d. None of the above
e. a and b

ANSWER: E

There are two possible answers to this.

1. If you are extracting changed data through the API, you can set the timestamp field to change only when your key fields change. This will allow you to select only those records whose changes need to be sent to R/3.

2. Using the Syndicator you can use the timestamp technology in calculated fields or set up the relevant search criteria in the Syndicator to select only those records that have relevant changes.
