Fields That Will Be Cleared in SAP
On a Change row an empty cell clears the field in SAP; MDM names those fields before you process, and you can avoid it by deleting the column or keeping the value.
Draft brief for authors. Replace with the final text; keep the concept-page structure.
Page type: Concept · Audience: Business user
Contains: why an empty cell clears on a Change row (every column of a file row is sent); a typed row sends only the fields it names; where MDM warns: the upload's answer and success dialog, the strip above Staging Records, both Process confirmations with the checkbox "I understand that processing clears these fields in SAP"; only fields SAP holds a value for are listed; how to avoid it: delete the column before uploading, or Keep Values in Mass Edit.
