Vendors V2 data entity not importing PERSONFIRSTNAME, PERSONMIDDLENAME, PERSONLASTNAME

Hi,

I'm importing templates using the Vendors V2 data entity. So far, everything has been imported correctly except for the fields PERSONFIRSTNAME, PERSONMIDDLENAME, and PERSONLASTNAME. These values are not being migrated, even though the import doesn’t show any errors, so I have no idea what could be causing it. The name fields simply don’t show up in the system after the import.
Form.
Vendors v2.

    Hi,
    I've tested via Vendors V2 entity and you can use the mentioned fields to import person type vendors. 
    PERSONFIRSTNAME PERSONMIDDLENAME PERSONLASTNAME VENDORORGANIZATIONNAME

    Can you verify which name sequence do you use for persons?

    HI Sergio,
     
    Looks like the vendor details are not created in the Global Address Book.
     
    A few questions:
    1. Have you imported the details of the vendor through DirPartyContactV2 or DirPartyContactV3 entity? 
    2. Have you tried importing the vendor details that exists in the Global Address book?
     
    The first name, middle name and last name for vendors are split through code when vendors are imported.

    Hi Sergio,
     
    What other columns are part of your source file and do you have blank columns?

    Yes, based on the fields I have, I'm only importing records of type 'person'.
