Jarvis Pizzeria: Managing DM Masterdata Validity Period by Marcel van de Glind

In a previous blog we described how to retrieving the masterdata from a VBCS Business Object. In this blog we will expand this further with a validity period for the masterdata

Now let’s expand our scenario (see previous blog)  a little further. Currently, one of the means of transport in the Decision model is a bike. Many bikes in the Netherlands are currently being replaced by an electrically powered version. Jarvis Pizzeria will also replace regular bikes with electric bikes from the new year. The change must also be implemented in the system (read Decision Model).

However, we do not want to implement this change at the turn of the year, but are already preparing it now. To achieve this, the variables must be provided with attributes that delimit the validity period of the variable.

Because we have already moved the variables of the Decision Model to a Business Object (see previous post), this is fairly easy to implement. Extending the BO definition with a start and end date and adjusting the selection query so that it takes these dates into account would be sufficient. So let’s see what that will look like.

Firstly, the adaptation of the BO definition (the last two fields are new). Read the complete article here.
