Entity Configuration Changes from a Partnership

You can change an entity ID value for the remote entity from within the context of a single partnership configuration. However, changing the entity ID at the partnership level does not link the partnership to another entity nor does it update the original entity. Modifications to an entity are a one-way propagation from the entity to the partnership. A change to the entity ID at the partnership level does not get propagated to the original entity.

Note: The entity ID you specify has to match what your remote partner is using.

Regard entity configurations as templates. Partnerships are created based on the entity templates so changing the partnership does not change the original entity template.

Refer to editing an entity from a partnership for more details about entities within a partnership.
