  Previously active configuration is a feature of SAP Master Data Services (EIM-MDS) that allows users to view and manage the data that was active in the system at a certain point in time. This feature allows users to compare the current state of the data with the state it was in at a previous point in time. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the previously active configuration feature, users must first select the “Previously Active Configuration” option from the main menu. This will open a window that displays all of the data that was active at a certain point in time. Users can then select which data they want to view and manage. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the previously active configuration feature, it is important to remember that only data that was active at a certain point in time will be displayed. Therefore, if any changes have been made since then, they will not be reflected in the previously active configuration window.
