Enhancement Request - Partner Community Name update in Sterling File Gateway

Problem Statement:

Currently, when a partner's community name needs to be updated in Sterling File Gateway, there is no direct "edit" functionality available for existing partners. The only apparent method to change a partner's community is to delete the existing partner record and then recreate it, associating it with the new community.


Impact:

This limitation presents significant operational challenges and risks, particularly in production environments:


Service Disruption Risk: Deleting and recreating a partner record can lead to temporary service disruptions for active file transfer flows associated with that partner.


Proposed Enhancement:

We request the addition of an "Edit" button or similar functionality for existing partners in Sterling File Gateway that allows administrators to modify the associated Partner Community directly, without requiring the deletion and recreation of the partner record.


Thank you for your time and consideration.
