Introduction

Overview

EPMware is a master data management and workflow tool that manages master data and enforces your organization's workflow around the everyday processes that surround your metadata changes. By configuring shared dimensions in EPMware, users request metadata once and our workflow engine routes the request to obtain approvals and deploys the metadata to the participating target systems.
