Tips   Relink partitioned supplier

You can only relink partitioned suppliers that are in your login partition.

After relinking partitioned suppliers, you may need to modify organization IDs to resolve any conflicts with shared organization IDs and to make sure that the common supplier includes all the organization IDs of its partitioned suppliers.

When you relink a partitioned supplier to the common supplier you are creating or editing, unused organization IDs associated with that partitioned supplier are removed from the original common supplier.
