How does the MDG Business Partner supplier update workflow work for configured supplier account group D with L1 approval and final MDG approval?

For configured supplier account group D, the MDG Business Partner update flow starts in Manage Business Partner - Governance, is submitted by the requestor, approved by the Level 1 approver, and then approved by the MDG Final approver in My Change Requests Monitoring. After final approval, the Business Partner remains searchable and the change request status reaches final approved processing.
