Hi Crystal,

?it is not clear to me, what you actually mean with outsource.
In our company we have “sort of” outsourced it:

1. The golden master records are in other systems (non AX) which are either exported-imported into our AX instances or they are consumed by web services into AX. Depending on the type of data (product data, configurations, production- and service BOMs for example)

2. We have a central master data team, of which most of the people are not using AX, we also have some people in a foreign country helping us.

Is this something close to what you are looking for?

Best regards
Marcus

Marcus – Curious as to why you chose keeping records in other systems? Was it mostly security ?related?
