The Compare MDS/Modules function in IMDS-a2 allows the comparison of two datasheets or modules. It displays all differences in the Ingredients tree, the Supplier data and the Recipient data as well as statistical differences.

In this feature, three (3) icons are used to identify differences between the two datasheets at a glance:

  Differences

  Added information

  Removed or not existing information
 

On the first tab of the Compare, the system presents an overview of how many own, accepted and published MDS are referenced in each datasheet. Additionally the statistics show the tree depth, the amount of referenced substances and the amount of used substance groups.
