APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
For this explanation two SFG partner names will be used as examples. The names are the same except for case of the letters in the name. One partner is named TESTPARTNER123 and the other is named testpartner123. If you use the SFG GUI to try to create those two partners, you can only create one of them, not both of them. Regardless of which partner you try to create first, the upper case one or the lower case one, the GUI blocks you with an on-screen error of "The partner name just entered is invalid because mailbox with this name already exists." when you try to create the second one. If you do the same test using the a new set of partner names with the same case difference in either order of creation, but do the creation using the Create Trading Partner REST API instead of the SFG GUI, the system allows you to create both partners, but there are only mailboxes for whichever partner you created first. No mailboxes are created for the second partner. After the creation of both partners using the REST API, if you delete either the upper case or the lower case partner using the Delete Trading Partner REST API, the single set of mailboxes that were created when the first partner was created will be deleted. Ideally, API should have the same behavior like B2B UI.
