UDI - is unique device identification proposed by FDA. This is a regulatory need from Feb/Mar 2015 to help track the medical devices.
This is part of Material Master record. It is not one field it is set of fields, it can be multiple data structures. We need to connect to Global UDI Database after creating an account with FDA.
The ideal capability is Enrichment of Material Data Structure along with interfaces to connect to external service.
I have seen some presentations by SAP, strategy was MDG will be the solution for this regulatory need. I do not have further leads.
