Symptom
The connection status for a Business Partner is displayed as "Merge Pending" in the Manage Messages application during the self-onboarding process.
Environment
SAP Traceability Hub (SAP TH)
Cause
- The contact email address selected by the customer while sending the onboarding invitation has not yet been added as a user or administrator in the Business Partner organization.
- To complete the self-onboarding process, the invited contact must be registered as a user within the Business Partner organization and assigned the appropriate role.
Resolution
An administrator of the Business Partner organization must approve the user request by following these steps:
- Log in to https://ich4ls.cloud.sap/
- Navigate to Manage Users.
- In the left navigation pane, select User Requests.
- Under the Open tab, locate the user associated with the onboarding invitation.
- Assign the required role(s) to the user.
- Click Approve to grant access.
Once the user request is approved, the "Merge Pending" status will be resolved, and the self-onboarding process can proceed successfully.
