How do I configure and validate an SAP MDG Business Partner supplier copy workflow with L1 approval and final MDG approval for a configured supplier account group B?

For a configured supplier account group B copy scenario, use Manage Business Partner - Governance to copy the supplier, complete duplicate check and vendor data, submit the change request, then process it in My Change Requests Monitoring for L1 approval and final MDG approval until the status becomes Final check approved.

For a configured supplier account group B copy scenario, use Manage Business Partner - Governance to copy the supplier, complete duplicate check and vendor data, submit the change request, then process it in My Change Requests Monitoring for L1 approval and final MDG approval until the status becomes Final check approved.

For TC56, the supplier copy process starts in Manage Business Partner - Governance, where the requestor copies an existing configured supplier account group B business partner, performs duplicate check, reviews the copied role FLVN00, and submits the change request. It then moves through L1 approval and MDG final approval in the monitoring apps until the final status becomes Final check approved.
