All information related to a master data delivery is divided into header and article data. The header data, also known as 'administrative data' for the master data server, includes the technically required details for the entire data delivery. This involves information about the supplier or company on the one hand, and details about the catalog on the other. A catalog is a master data record. A supplier can have multiple catalogs that organize their overall assortment into sub-assortments. For example, subdivision into product categories, subdivision into brands, or subdivision into products and spare parts are conceivable.
