Hello All
What is the difference between Supplier and Customer MDS center .
Functionally we are doing the same activites as mentioned below in both the centers.
1.Create and send material data sheets.
2. Accept or reject material data sheets.
3. Tracking the status of MDS
4. Importing the MDS into the system.
I would like to put my understanding with the scenario mentioned below
Suppose I am working in TIER1 company ( 1st level supplier to the OEM ). TIER 1 company inturn have many other suppliers ( TIER2 , 2nd level suppliers to OEM ) who may not interact directly with the OEM. So when I would be interacting with TIER2 for compliance data I would be using
Supplier MDS center and likewise with OEM it would be Customer MDS center.
Please let me know , if my understanding is right .
Cheers
Satish
Hi Satish,
Yes, your understanding is right.
You can imagine the Supplier MDS center as your IMDS inbox and the Customer MDS Center as the outbox.
You will use the Supplier MDS center to see the incoming supplier MDSs or published MDSs.
If you enabled IMDS status upload/download (on IMDS side) you can use the Supplier Center for accepting/rejecting MDSs. And you can import the MDS into EHSM.
From the Customer MDS center you can send or publish your own MDSs.
Kind regards,
Andreas
