How to update already migrated Business Partner data

Migration of Business Partners was successfully completed through the Migration Cockpit. Now it is required to update these data.

The migration of the same Business Partners with the extended data into a new project does not update them.

Cause

Data migration of Business Partner is only for initial creation of entities, not for update of existing records.

Resolution

In case it is only needed to extend the already existing Business Partner with additional records, use one of the below migration object:

• Customer – extend existing records by new org levels
• Supplier – extend existing records by new org levels

The previous methods do not support the update of existing fields/records.

To mass update/edit Business Partners use Fiori app: “Mass Maintenance for Master Data”.

The update of a single Business Partner is possible with the help of the appropriate Fiori app for it:

• Supplier – “Manage Supplier Master Data”
• Customer – “Manage Customer Master Data”
