Hello Team,
We have following question about the SQL Master Data Service:
1. We have already integrated different client data to MDS with the help MS Excel plugin, now we want to push back updated or new added record to source database. is it possible do using MDS?
2. Do we have any background sync process to which automatically sync data to and from subscriber and MDS?
Kindly help us.
I have some attributes which are defined as decimal, and they are populated with correct values i.e. to 2 decimal places. I can check this in the underlying tables.
But in the Explorer window they only show as integers, which can be very confusing.
Is this by design? Or is there a setting somewhere for this? Or is this a bug?

I found out this article
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/ee633744%28v=sql.130%29.aspx
There were not stipulated requirements for Windows 10. I understand that SQL Server 2014 is the latest version. Therefore it have to be supported by Windows 10. Unfortunately, there are no information about Windows features req's for installation of MD.
Please update this(these) web pages.
By the way, there are not information if MDS for MS SQL 2008 R2 supported by Windows 8/8.1 (or only Windows 7)
P.S. I am interested in MS SQL developer edition
Hello I am working with MDS excel add in 2014.
I am new to MDS. I have questions regarding data import from excel spreadsheet managed using MDS to Sql Server tables.
How do we handle changes in the excel spreadsheet when we import the data into SQL server tables creating subscription view.
thanks

At a customer, I made a proof of concept using the Custom Workflow. On my mcahine, where everything is installed, the custom workflow triggeres as it should.
Now the customer has implemented this feature, yet it only triggers "sometimes", it is not concistant.
Difference between my implementation and theirs:
Mine:
Writes out the xml that comes in via the IWorkflowExtender implementation
Everything is running on my local SSD
Theirs:
Parses the xml to retrieve specific data, call a sp to expand the data and writes this data to the a network folder
SQL Server (engine) runs on a different machine from where the MDS is installed
Current investigations, like network issues, IO lag do not seem to be the problem.
Any ideas?
Thank you
Hi All,
I'm new to MDS and am having issues to say the least!
Everytime I run the load packages that I have built into the MDS staging the tables, in MDS_Staging, get cleared down and then repopulated. When the MDS database gets new data it appends it and does not clear down the data that is already in the database and is there fore hold duplicate rows.
Is there a way of truncating the tables in the MDS database before populating again with the new data from the MDS_Staging database so as to not hold duplicate rows?
Thanks everybody!

Hi,
I'm really confused why a simple functionality in MDS like Business rule change value is not working as expected?
On my entity "Planning" with the following attributes:
I have created a business rule to change value of "Code" to be the same of "LastDayMonth" but it doesn't work !!!
I have changed the attribute to control the value of StartDate or EndDate and it works.
I thought it was a problem of DBA but i have other entities with the same business rule to change value of Code Attribute to be the same of the DBA. I don't know what's wrong with.
Is there anything i am missing !!!
Thanks a lot for any illumination you can provide.
PS: I have tried to take DBA.LastDayMonth.Code in the business rule but no change.

Hi,
I have an Exception when i try to add a member in an entity
1- Entity "ProductGroup"
2- Entity "Product" with a Domain Based Attribute (DBA) "PGroup" to points to entity "ProductGroup"
3- Derived Hierarchy based on DBA to limit acces to Product attributes values switched to users
4- UserA has access only to Product attribute PGA
When I haven't any record in Product entity(either it s empty, no records or because i have record but UserA can access them) i can't add a new member, it throw Exception !!!
There is a similar error when you add a member in the page to of the Master Data Services explorer which was
corrected in SQL 2014 CU1 according to Microsoft:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2932340
But it doesn't work in my case.
SQL Server Version:
Master Data Services 2014 (SQL Server 2014 SP1 version 12.0.4213.0)
Any help would be appreciated.
Sincerely.
Hi,
having finaly 'Cascading Parameters' is just great! But it is not supported by the new Excel Add-In, correct? Can we expect to get this soon? (Same problem with change sets ...)
Thanks

Can one update compatibility level on Master Data Services 2014 db from 100 to 110?
It would be awesome to use for example TRY_CONVERT, but obviously messing up the mds wouldn't be nice.
Cheers,

” Before creating an MDS web application, you must correct the following errors:
Internet Information Services (IIS) is not configured on this server.
The required .svc handler mappings are not installed in IIS. For more information, seehttp://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=226284.

It seem that the LOB made a change to an Explicit hierarchy and the entire sort order changed. I'm trying to get a definitive answer as to what was changed but at this point I don't have one and there are normally very few changes monthly if any.
Does anyone have any insight as to why this may have happened?
It also appears to have updated the hierarchy in order in committed versions.
Just looking for ideas before we have to submit to Rep.

We are using Office 2010 on Citrix with the RCO Master Data Excel addin. I am getting many calls from users that the Addin has disappeared from the Excel menu. Can re-enable it by going to files->Options->Addins and manage COM addins. Have not been able to work out why it becomes disabled. Does anyone know of a registry setting that I can use to stop it from being disabled?
