Business Partner Master Registration

How Iqra Technology built a structured Business Partner Master Registration system on Joget DX for a large-scale Japanese energy company — replacing manual onboarding with a governed, validated, and SAP MDG-integrated digital registration workflow.

Client Overview

A large-scale energy and utilities company in Japan that works with a large network of business partners — including vendors, contractors, and service providers — each of whom must be registered in the company's SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) system before any commercial engagement can proceed.

The existing partner registration process involved paper-based application forms, manual document collection via email, and individual data entry into SAP by a small team of master data administrators. The process was slow, error-prone, and lacked structured validation — partners were sometimes registered with incomplete or incorrectly formatted data.

Iqra Technology was engaged to replace this manual process with a digital Business Partner Master Registration system built on Joget DX — providing a structured online registration portal for business partners, a multi-level internal review and approval workflow, and automated SAP MDG integration for validated partner data creation.

Project Overview

The project delivered a Joget DX Business Partner Registration platform covering the full partner onboarding lifecycle — from structured online registration submission by the business partner, through internal compliance and commercial review, to final SAP MDG data creation. Every field is validated against defined master data standards before the submission can progress.

The solution eliminated manual data entry into SAP, enforced complete and correctly formatted partner data at the point of submission, and provided the company's master data, procurement, and compliance teams with a governed, auditable partner registration process for the first time.

Client Requirements

  • Build a digital partner registration portal where business partners submit their own data online.
  • Validate all registration fields against SAP master data standards at submission.
  • Implement a multi-level internal review workflow covering compliance, commercial, and master data approval.
  • Integrate with SAP MDG to create validated partner master data records upon final approval.
  • Provide partners with real-time status updates on their registration application.
  • Enforce document upload requirements (company registration, tax certificates, bank details).
  • Maintain a complete audit trail of all registration submissions, reviews, and approvals.
  • Generate management reports on registration volumes, approval times, and rejection rates.

Challenges & Solutions

Problem 1Business partners submitted registration data in inconsistent formats — incomplete bank details, non-standard company name formats, missing tax registration numbers — causing master data administrators to spend significant time on manual validation and correction before SAP entry.
SolutionBuilt field-level validation rules directly into the Joget registration form that enforce SAP master data formatting standards at the point of submission. Partners cannot complete their registration without providing correctly formatted and complete data — eliminating the validation burden from the master data team entirely.
Problem 2The internal review process had no structured sequencing — compliance, commercial, and master data teams sometimes reviewed the same registration simultaneously in different email threads, creating conflicting feedback that had to be manually reconciled.
SolutionImplemented a structured sequential review workflow in Joget Process Builder where compliance reviews first, followed by commercial assessment, and finally master data approval before SAP creation is triggered. Each stage receives the previous stage's review notes, ensuring decisions build on prior assessments without duplication.
Problem 3After internal approval, master data administrators manually re-entered all partner data from email into SAP MDG — a slow, error-prone process that introduced data quality issues at the final step and delayed partner activation by days.
SolutionIntegrated Joget directly with SAP MDG via REST API, enabling approved partner records to be automatically created in SAP with all validated data upon final workflow sign-off — eliminating all manual SAP data entry and ensuring master data quality is maintained from submission through to system creation.
