Overview
Mass Load and Mass Maintenance of Product Data provides capabilities to load and update multiple product master data records at the same time.
To load records, you import data from file. The system starts a validation and activation process.
To update records, you select the fields and records you want to change. Once you enter your changes, the system provides statistics on the changed fields and validates the data. You check the vali-
dated data and activate it for use in business transactions.
This document provides a detailed procedure for testing this scope item after solution activation, reflecting the predefined scope of the solution. Each process step, report, or item is covered in its
own section, providing the system interactions (test steps) in a table view. Steps that are not in scope of the process but are needed for testing are marked accordingly. Project-specific steps must be
added.
Note Values in this test script (decimal notation, date formats, and so on) are presented in U.S. standard notation. If your test system is set up to use a different notation, enter values as appropri-
ate.
This section summarizes all the prerequisites for conducting the test in terms of systems, users, master data, organizational data, other test data and business conditions.
System Details
System Accessible via SAP Fiori launchpad. Your system administrator provides you with the URL to access the various apps assigned to your role.
2.2 Roles
Create business roles using the following business role templates delivered by SAP and assign them to your individual test users.
