  Key Concepts: 
  Partial import is a feature of SAP FS-PM Policy Management that allows users to import only certain parts of a policy from an external source. This feature is useful for quickly updating existing policies without having to manually enter all the data. It also allows users to selectively choose which parts of the policy they want to import, making it easier to keep track of changes.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use partial import, first select the policy you want to update. Then, select the “Import” option from the menu. You will be presented with a list of available sources from which you can import data. Select the source you want and then select the parts of the policy you want to import. Once you have selected the parts, click “Import” and the data will be imported into your policy. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using partial import, it is important to remember that only certain parts of a policy can be imported. Make sure you are aware of which parts are available for import before selecting them. Additionally, it is important to remember that any changes made to the imported data will not be reflected in the original source.
