Updating data
An erroneous event upload can be updated within the Transparent Supply user interface, by reuploading the data with an identical event ID. Any duplicated event IDs are replaced in the Transparent Supply user interface by the most recent upload, but are not overwritten on blockchain.
If you have questions or need assistance with updating your event data, open a case with IBM Support.
Updating data with data entry forms
