What is master data information and why do we call it that? Well, basically in Business Central we have master data, or we call it master data, which is all kinds of data that doesn’t change or doesn’t flow in Business Central as for instance, documents does.

So this will be items, customers, vendors, item variance, chart of accounts, all different kinds of tables where you enter data and they stay in the table.

Once you enter enter it.

We call that master data and business Info.

Now, with this app, we apply master data information.

This means specification text or files each record in each of those tables.

This means in all those table we can apply extra information to the records, which is the master data information.

And like mice, we have documents and business central, all different kinds of documents, open documents, poster documents, and we can apply what we call master data on documents, which is again on the open documents and flowing to the poster documents.

So this is master data information on those documents.

So master data information, it’s all about adding extra information to all those kind of entities and business.
