Hello BRIM experts,

is there any information available concerning change processes on header level?

If so, which SP is required for EHP3.

Thank you and kind regards

Vanessa

Hi Vanessa,

unfortunately the direct answer to your question is: "No".

This doesn't exist.


What I can think of as a workaround is the mass processing for provider contracts.

With this you can easily select all contract items contained in one document and apply the BTMF process to all items. Of course: It's again item processes that are triggered.

What kind of changes to you need on header level?

Best regards

Thank you  Stefan,

this verifies our assumption. Actually in our scenario assigned partners need to be replaced on header level.

Best regards

Hi Vanessa,

just to complete the view:
Generally it's correct that data of Provider Contract can only be changed through BTMF change processes.

If just administrational data of a contract is to be changed that is not relevant for downstream systems there is a way to achieve such changes on API level by calling

* allow provider contract changes
  CALL FUNCTION 'CRM_PROVIDER_CON_SET_EDIT_MODE'.

before the actual call of the ORDER_MAINTAIN.

Such a change doesn't trigger any distribtution in ODI. But if it is just to maintain additional partners (e.g. employee responsible) this mode can be used.
