How does the MDG Business Partner supplier update workflow work for Corporate Supplier Group with L1 and final approval?

For a Corporate Supplier Group Business Partner update in MDG, the requestor creates and submits the change request in Manage Business Partner - Governance, the Level 1 approver processes it in My Change Requests, and the MDG final approver completes the last approval in My Change Requests Monitoring. The workflow ends with the BP visible again in the search result after final approval.
