Hi Pra,
You have to insert data into tables ra_customers_interface_all and ra_customer_profiles_int_all and then run the concurrent Customer Interface, avaiable from AR Super User: Interface: Customer.
A sample script to insert data in order to change customer profile class:
-- Starts here
insert into ra_customers_interface_all
(orig_system_customer_ref,
insert_update_flag,
org_id,
customer_name,
last_updated_by,
last_update_date,
created_by,
creation_date,
customer_status,
customer_number)
values (hz_cust_accounts.orig_system_reference,
'U', -- stands for update
          fnd_profile.value('ORG_ID'),
          hz_party.party_name,
          -1,
          sysdate,
          -1,
          sysdate,
          hz_cust_accounts.status,
          hz_cust_accounts.account_number);
insert into ra_customer_profiles_int_all
(insert_update_flag,
orig_system_customer_ref,
customer_profile_class_name,
org_id,
credit_hold,
last_updated_by,
last_update_date,
created_by,
creation_date)
values ('U', -- stands for update
hz_cust_accounts.orig_system_reference,
          :new_profile_class_name,
          fnd_profile.value('ORG_ID'),
          :credit_hold_flag,
          -1,
          sysdate,
          -1,
          sysdate );
-- End
Hope it helps,
