Pardon my french, but our concern is presently sitting connected a heap of doo-doo with worldly data. There are things that we cognize amended present that we didn't cognize backmost past with serial fig profile. We're grasping astatine straws to instrumentality information nets, checks, reviews to forestall discrepancies successful serial/batch information but the contented inactive persists.
Currently I'm having to behaviour information cleanups that impact aggregate teams to propulsion retired stock, deliveries, PO, acquisition req, etc. to remediate this 1 field. It's vey not fun. Sometimes adjacent aft each of that dense lifting, SAP inactive wont fto america remediate serial/batch due to the fact that of metadata. (Please nary comments astir 'archiving' due to the fact that our concern does not privation america archiving data.)
I've besides conscionable precocious learned that these information inconsistencies person created a bigger messiness for those connected the accumulation level moving connected enactment orders who are besides having to monkey astir successful our systems to find immoderate benignant of workaround with the conflicting information betwixt our systems.
I saw determination successful a spiceworks forum that SAP provides a tool/software that you tin instrumentality that tin hole this. If anyone present knows astir it delight please delight stock the link, name, anything. Spending a mates 1000 connected a programme I deliberation is truthful overmuch amended than wasting respective 1000 connected scrapping a portion owed to information inconsistencies.
