Cause

When migrating Customers a Value Conversion file was used in Customer Migration activity.

This file contains the From/To logic that the system uses when migrating Open Items Receivable as well.

Hence when the ID ABC was entered in the migration file the system changed it to XYZ due to the From/To logic.
