MDM Workflow Configuration & Hierarchy Management 2

Question 1

In Informatica MDM, which workflow trigger type initiates a process automatically when a record reaches a specific state in the state machine?

Accepted Answer

Event-based trigger

Answer

Event-based triggers fire automatically when a record transitions to a defined state, enabling straight-through processing without human intervention.

Question 2

When configuring a hierarchy in Informatica MDM Hub, what does the 'Relationship Type' setting control?

Accepted Answer

The cardinality and direction of relationships between hierarchy nodes

Answer

Relationship Type defines cardinality (one-to-one, one-to-many) and directionality between parent and child nodes in a hierarchy.

Question 3

A workflow task is configured with 'Reviewer' and 'Approver' roles. In which order are these roles typically invoked in a standard multi-step approval workflow?

Accepted Answer

Reviewer first, then Approver

Answer

In a standard multi-step workflow, Reviewers evaluate changes first and, upon acceptance, the task advances to Approvers for final sign-off.

Question 4

Which MDM Hub configuration object stores the task assignment rules that determine which user or role receives a workflow task?

Accepted Answer

Assignment Rule

Answer

Assignment Rules contain the logic (based on data attributes, user roles, or load balancing) that routes tasks to the correct user or group.

Question 5

In Informatica MDM hierarchy management, what is the purpose of the 'Effective Date' attribute on a relationship record?

Accepted Answer

It specifies the date range during which a parent-child relationship is valid

Answer

Effective Date attributes allow time-variant hierarchy modeling so that parent-child relationships can be tracked as they change over time.
