The Opportunity: The Master data specialist will work on Material management for Services business
How you'll make an impact:
• Execute the four-pattern info records cleansing
• Pattern A: Refresh pricing conditions on info records — net price, scales, validity dates, currency — using ME11 / ME12 and supporting transactions.
• Pattern B: Rebuild source lists (EORD) where MRP signals are mis-routed or where contract sources are missing.
• Pattern C: Restore contract linkage were info records reference orphaned or expired outline agreements.
• Pattern D: Execute end-to-end source-to-pay alignment for material × vendor combinations where multiple breaks compound.
Run vendor master and source list cleanup
• Cleanse vendor master records across LFA1, LFM1, LFB1, including purchasing org data, partner functions, and tax / payment terms.
• Validate vendor data against external sources and resolve duplicates.
• Maintain EORD source list discipline — quota arrangements, validity, blocked indicators, MRP relevance.
Resolve cross-domain breaks end-to-end
• Diagnose where an info records issue originates — material master, vendor master, pricing master, or contract data — and resolve at the right node.
• Pair with the Material Master Specialist when generic part numbers, archetype changes, or unit-of-measure issues are upstream of the info records defect.
Close gates and sustain
• Operate Process Runner, Precisely Automate Studio, and MASS for high-volume info records and vendor updates.
• Maintain the Defect Register for procurement domain; feed coverage %, defect rate, and cycle-time inputs into the KPI Dashboard.
• Sign off Exit Gate Checklists at the three Definition of Done levels.
• Hand off sustainment patterns to BAU when a pattern wave clears target DOD
Your background:
• • Experience: 8+ years hands-on SAP master data execution, with documented volume — personally cleared thousands of info records or vendor records in prior cleanup programs.
• End-to-end domain knowledge: Working understanding of how master data flows across all six domains and how procurement data depends on material, vendor, pricing, and contract foundations.
• Procurement depth: Fluent across EINE, EINA, EORD, LFA1, LFM1, LFB1, contract / outline agreement structures, pricing condition tables (A-tables).
• Transaction fluency: ME11 / ME12, ME01 / ME02 (source list), ME31K / ME32K (contracts), XK01 / XK02, MASS, MDG_SW, SE16N — used daily.
• Mass maintenance tooling: Hands-on with Process Runner, Precisely Automate Studio, or LSMW for info records and vendor updates.
• Investigation skill: Comfortable running working sessions with Procurement, Sourcing, and Engineering SMEs to resolve ambiguous price, source, or contract structures.
• Bias to action: Energized by high-volume execution. Closes records, not tickets.
Preferred Qualifications
• Familiarity with strategic sourcing artifacts — outline agreements, scheduling agreements, framework contracts — and how they feed info records.
• Exposure to S/4HANA ↔ Salesforce integration where Salesforce contract or pricing data flows back into SAP.
• Experience with sourcing across US and Canada including tax / customs / duty data.
• Background in industrial, capital equipment, or power generation procurement.
