• Key Concepts: 
  A lockbox is a feature of the SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) application that allows users to control access to certain data fields. It is used to restrict access to sensitive data, such as customer information, and can be used to ensure that only authorized personnel can view or modify the data. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the lockbox feature, users must first create a lockbox in the MDG application. This can be done by selecting the “Create Lockbox” option from the main menu. Once the lockbox is created, users can then assign access rights to specific users or groups of users. These access rights can be set to allow read-only access, full access, or no access at all. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a lockbox, it is important to consider who needs access to the data and what level of access they should have. It is also important to remember that any changes made to the lockbox will take effect immediately, so it is important to double-check any changes before saving them.
