How do I extend the SAP MDG Supplier entity and which standard BP structures and transactions are used for Supplier attributes?
Use MDG data model BP for Supplier, extend the standard BP entities instead of creating a custom entity for the validated scope, then regenerate the BP model-specific structures and extend the relevant supplier structures in SE11.

Use MDG data model BP for Supplier and extend the standard BP entities rather than creating a separate model for this scope. The source guide maps supplier general data to BP_VENGEN and supplier purchasing-organization data to BP_PORG, then continues with model enhancement and structure regeneration so the new attributes are available in the generated MDG structures.
