• Key Concepts: 
  Rule scope is a feature of SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) that allows users to define the scope of a rule. This means that users can specify which objects the rule should apply to, such as specific master data types, fields, or values. Rule scope also allows users to define the conditions under which the rule should be applied. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use rule scope in SAP MDG, users must first create a rule. This can be done by navigating to the Rules tab in the MDG application and selecting “Create Rule”. Once the rule is created, users can then define its scope by selecting “Define Scope” from the Actions menu. This will open a window where users can specify which objects the rule should apply to and under what conditions. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When defining the scope of a rule, it is important to consider how it will affect other rules and processes in the system. For example, if a rule is applied to a specific field, it may conflict with other rules that are applied to that same field. It is also important to consider how changes in the scope of a rule may affect existing data in the system.
