MDG DQM: Troubleshooting DQM validation rules for central governance - Product Master S/4 HANA

INTRODUCTION

In this blog post we will cover a few steps on how we can troubleshoot the BRF+ validations which is the underlying framework for MDG DQM. This module of MDG is still evolving rapidly as we move towards cloud first and a clean core approach. As MDG developers we are still pretty comfortable with classical BADI's for doing validations and we all know it's quite easy to troubleshoot the rules. But when it comes to DQM we might wonder how do my rules get called? how can i troubleshoot my rules if they are not working as expected? 

So let's see how we can troubleshoot the rules.

Unmanaged Query in Root View Entities

Introduction

In the context of the Restful ABAP Programming Model, when you think about an Unmanaged Query, you’re mostly thinking of a Custom Entity.
