Which MDM Hub feature allows a data steward to view a complete history of state changes and actions taken on a workflow task?
Answer: Task History panel in Data Director
The Task History panel in Informatica Data Director (IDD) displays a chronological log of all actions, state changes, and comments for a given task.
In hierarchy management, what is a 'delegate relationship' used for?
Answer: Allowing one entity to act on behalf of another within a hierarchy context
A delegate relationship allows one entity to represent or act on behalf of another, useful in organizational hierarchies where authority is transferred.
When multiple workflow packages are deployed to MDM Hub, which configuration determines which package governs a specific base object?
Answer: Package-to-base-object assignment in Hub Console
In Hub Console, administrators assign specific workflow packages to base objects, determining which workflow processes govern records in that object.
A hierarchy node is marked as 'inactive' in MDM. What is the primary effect on child nodes beneath it?
Answer: Child nodes remain active but the parent-child relationship is logically severed
Inactivating a parent node suspends the relationship link, leaving child nodes in their own active state while the relationship becomes logically invalid.
In Informatica MDM Hub, which workflow action transitions a record from 'PENDING' state back to 'DRAFT' for additional corrections?
Answer: Send Back
The 'Send Back' action returns a record to DRAFT state, allowing the originator to make corrections before resubmitting for approval.
Which Informatica MDM Hub component is responsible for resolving workflow endpoint URLs when communicating with an external workflow engine?
Answer: Workflow Adapter
The Workflow Adapter translates MDM Hub workflow events into protocol calls and resolves endpoint URLs for the configured external workflow engine.
When configuring a hierarchy relationship in MDM Hub to support multiple inheritance (a child having more than one parent), which setting must be enabled?
Answer: Allow Multiple Parents on the Relationship Type
Enabling 'Allow Multiple Parents' on the Relationship Type configuration permits a single child node to be linked to more than one parent node simultaneously.
