Processing
Take into account the following behavior of the change and update operations of this process component when you use it:
The data transferred by request messages overwrites only those affected objects in the databases of the back-end system that are also filled in the message structure. This also applies to the individual items of list-like elements.
Caution:
This means that if optional elements are not filled in a request message, the back-end system leaves the values as they are in the affected fields in the database. The only exception to this behavior is when these values are automatically updated due to changes to other data.
