Master Data Native I ntegration mak e s the Cloud Integration Gate w ay a more mature product. To use MDNI, you need to have at least support pack 7 of the Cloud Integration Gateway Add-On component installed in your ERP system or S/4HANA system. This new feature is currently supported for SAP Ariba Procurement solutions only.

It allows to export master data from multiple SAP on-premise systems! The master data exported from each SAP system is identified by a System ID.

It then sends an XML file corresponding to the master data object from your ERP system to your SAP Ariba Procurement solution as it uses standard webservices. In addition, BAdI logic can be implemented as well for the extraction step.

The dynamic selection is done per master data object.

One of the main differences and benefits is that MDNI now uses the SAP native search and selection options instead of code-based filtering. SAP Ariba buyers can now leverage from a standard interface using a data replication framework that offers flexibility in data filtering and extraction. The Master Data Native Integration (MDNI) framework is SAP Ariba’s latest Cloud Integration Gateway drug to avoid master data replication with csv files!
