Watch a short video on: Data Adaptation & Federation
It is frequently observed that 80% of Master Data are identical between two instances (for example a product catalog between the headquarter and a subsidiary).
It is important to avoid duplication of data as this prevents long data input operations, which are fastidious and lead to errors.
To achieve this, EBX.Platform relies on a unique inheritance technology. It allows the creation of a "Master Data instances tree" from an initial Master Data model and the management of inheritance rules between instances. Each instance inherits from its parent.
Key Features
Instance tree
From an initial Master Data instance, creation of child instances that inherits from each other.
Inheritance
Each Master Data instance inherits from its parent (allows to avoid data duplication). For example:
> Headquarter
> Regions
> Countries
> Subsidiaries
Overwrite
On any instance, it is possible to overwrite inherited values, in order to adapt Master Data. For example, a label is localized, a price is changed for a local context. Overwrite works for adding records, updating records or deleting records (called occultation).
Rights
Inheritance works with rights management. It is possible to delegate rights to roles and users on each Master Data instance.
