How does supplier management work in next-gen SAP Ariba?
Short answer
Supplier management in next-gen SAP Ariba covers supplier onboarding, qualification, risk and performance, building on SAP Ariba Supplier Lifecycle and Performance (SLP). Because data is unified on SAP BTP, supplier information is consistent across sourcing, contracts and buying.
Core capabilities
- Supplier registration and onboarding questionnaires.
- Qualification by category and region.
- Risk and compliance information.
- Performance reviews and scorecards.
Integration with SAP S/4HANA
Supplier master data needs to stay in sync with your ERP's business partner records. Plan this integration carefully – it is often the source of migration issues.
