In our implementation we have ERP – HCI – C4C integrated and I noticed the following behavior.

In C4C (Sales) when employee Alex was inside a customer’s screen, adding him as the “Employee responsible” in the account team, or simply changing a field value (mostly an address related field) after a few minutes, this addition was deleted.

The strange thing is that in the changes tab, you could see employee Alex adding this information, and then the technical user from ERP, (not an actual user) deleting this “employee responsible” information.

So I had to see inside ERP, in the corresponding customer, was fields changes there were. In order to do that, I went to transaction xd04.
