• Wrong master data has been created which need to be archived/deleted.
• After deletion of role customer from business partner, the business partner still appears as customer in Maintain Business Partner tile.
• Within the app "Maintain Business Partners", field "Central Deletion Flag" within the Supplier BP Role is grayed-out.

SAP S/4HANA Cloud

1. Open the App Maintain Business Partner.
2. Search for any BP.

• Refer to link Blocking, Unblocking and Deletion of Business Partner, Customer and Supplier Master Data on how to block, unblock or delete business partner, customer and supplier master data.
• After the residence period is completed and data is blocked, it either remains in the database or is stored in an archive.
• If the blocked data remains in the database, the data manager can delete the blocked business partner, customer and supplier master data from the database using the corresponding archiving objects.
• Refer to the test script under scope item "Data Protection and Privacy (5LE) " for more details.
• The business partner master data can be deleted once the associated customer and supplier master data has been deleted from the database.
• To destroy data from archives, you can use the ILM Data Destruction app so that the data can no longer be retrieved.
• For more information about the ILM Data Destruction app, see ILM Data Destruction.

N.B.
After deletion/blocking the Business Partner the Business partner cannot be replicated anymore to the system. Therefore the described approach is NOT applicable for test data deletion/client refresh.
