Background documentation InfoPackages for Initial Upload (Optional)  Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Together with the first D&B data files you also receive some D&B files containing customer-independent information. If you want to use the information delivered with these files, these files need to be uploaded once. To prepare the upload process, you create the required InfoPackages.

The following table shows the files you get from D&B for the initial upload. For each file you create one InfoPackage. In the right column you see the InfoObjects to which the new InfoPackages belong.
