Marlin Duplicate Check in SAP

Duplicates in customer, supplier and business partner data are among the most frequent causes of delays, additional work and risks in SAP projects.
The Marlin Duplicate Check supports SAP project managers and IT managers in recognising duplicates at an early stage, cleaning them up systematically and preventing them permanently - directly in the SAP system.

 

The problem

Why duplicates slow down SAP projects

In many SAP landscapes, duplicates can go unnoticed for years. They become a problem in projects at the latest:

Typical consequences of untreated duplicates

Your challenges:

  • Risks increase, for example due to unclear credit assessments, duplicate business partners or incorrect master data.

  • During migrations, duplicates significantly extend the project duration.

  • Incorrect reports lead to wrong decisions and unnecessary costs.

  • Marketing campaigns are ineffective because customers are generated more than once.

  • Responsibilities become unclear, processes slower and less reliable.

In short: without a duplicate check, you lack the basis for good decisions.

The solution

Marlin Duplicate Check (MDC) for SAP

The Marlin Duplicate Check is fully integrated into SAP and fits seamlessly into existing system and project landscapes.

It enables:

  • Dialogue checks during master data creation to avoid new duplicates

  • Systematic inventory checks - even with large volumes of data

  • Structured processing of duplicate groups

  • Clear separation of technical checks and business decisions

The solution is certified by SAP, has a modular structure and is suitable for both SAP ERP and S/4HANA - both in ongoing operations and in projects.

For SAP ECC6 and SAP S/4HANA

Technically sophisticated, suitable for projects

The Marlin Duplicate Check was designed for complex SAP landscapes:

  • Flexible search technologies that can be adapted to suit data volumes and system architectures
  • Rule-based duplicate recognition, e.g. for addresses, bank details or the VAT ID
  • Clearing mechanisms for structured processing
  • Connection of external data sources and upstream systems possible
  • Preparation for SAP Master Data Governance and S/4HANA

The technical depth remains controllable. Details and architectural approaches can be found in the white paper.
