You want to load master data for an Info Object Which benefits are offered by the setting "Enhanced Master Data Update" in the definition of the Info Object? Note: There are 2 correct answers to…

Question

Options

• AUsing OData Services for data extraction
• BParallel processing of multiple loads.
• CDelta handling of extracted data.
• DDisabling update of SID values

• A
  6% (2)
• B
  87% (27)
• D
  6% (2)

Explanation

Enhanced Master Data Update in an InfoObject's definition activates two key performance and processing improvements: it enables parallel processing (B), allowing multiple data load requests for the same InfoObject to run simultaneously instead of queuing sequentially, and it enables delta handling (C), so only new or changed records are processed on subsequent loads rather than reloading the full dataset each time.

Why A is wrong: OData Services are a data provisioning/extraction protocol configured at the source or service layer - they have no connection to the Enhanced Master Data Update flag on an InfoObject definition.

Why D is wrong: SID (Surrogate ID) generation remains active under Enhanced Master Data Update; the feature does not suppress or disable SID value creation, which is a core part of how BW manages characteristic values.

Memory tip: Think "Enhanced = P+D" - Parallel loads and Delta processing. Both reduce load time and system strain, which is exactly what an "enhancement" to master data loading would logically deliver.
