SAP Master Data Management (MDM) provides a completely flexible mechanism for linking MDM to the outside world using Links table. However at a time only one link can be set Active in Web tab of MDM Data Manager. But by using MDM in collaboration with HTML one can simultaneously access N number of links in the Web tab without changing the configuration. 
 
Steps to be followed:
 
1. Create an HTML file with the below code and name it as Links.html. Code shown contains four links however you can add N number of links just by adding lines start with tag <A> using the same syntax shown.

 <HTML>
<BODY bgcolor=”cyan”>
<FONT face=”Bookman Old Style” size=2> 
<A href=”http://www.google.com” target=”Output”>Google Search</A>
<A href=”http://www.yahoo.com” target=”Output”>Yahoo</A>
<A href=”http://www.capgemini.com” target=”Output”>Company URL</A>
<A href=”http://Tewall22:50000/irj/webdynpro/dispatcher/MyBookings” target=”Output”>My Bookings</A> 
</FONT>
</BODY>
</HTML>
 
2. Create another HTML file as shown below

<HTML>
<FRAMESET name=”framset1″ Rows=10%,*>
<FRAME name=”Links” src=”Links.html” noresize scrolling=”no”>
<FRAME name=”Output”>
</FRAMESET>
</HTML> 
 
The purpose of this file is to divide the page into two halves (known as Frames). Frame one would contain the links to be accessed and Frame 2 will open the link clicked.
 

3. Place both the HTML files in same directory and add the entry in Links table of the repository referencing second HTML file.
