Hello,
I'm trying to find information on how to create requisitions (for non catalog items) in P2P using the SOAP web service.
Specifically I'm wondering which URL and port I would connect to, where is the WSDL file, and if there any code samples or documentation available?
Thanks,
Greg
Hi,
On the onpremise version we have many acm projects, and would like to link to them from a website that is outside Ariba. Obviously, we expect Ariba to request the userid and pass before accessing the project, but is it possible to create or generate the link?
Thanks,
M
Can anyone tell me about the capabilities of using Ariba to manage on-line bidding efforts? (Posting specifications, collecting bids, managing quesitons, awarding projects, etc.)
Hi,
Would you please let me know how do I handle tiered pricing in a RFx event?
Thanks and regards.

When i was new to Ariba, i was running from Pillar-to-Post to find out information about Ariba. Now with some self-exploration, i have found some interesting and perhaps 'UNDOCUMENTED ' points about Ariba
Watch this space, i will keep adding more and more information as i discover 
Feel free to add your easter eggs:)
Would highly appreciate if someone can also offer a business case todo so!
First, I am an Ariba newbie. We are looking to integrate our existing web application, that allows buyers to purchase services, with Ariba. Due to the custom nature of our services, we have determined that using a PunchOut catalog makes the most sense. I am reviewing the cXML Solutions Guide and I've read a few other documents in the Ariba Production Documentation site. I believe I have a test punchout catalog setup in our test account. One of my initial questions is how can I work with this test catalog pointing it to a development version of our web site on my local machine? It appears that SSL is required even in the test account. Can I use a self-signed certificate?
The existing web application that we will be integrating with is ASP.NET application written in C# running on IIS.
If this is not possible, how can I simulate cXML transactions being posted from Ariba to our application when we are developing our solution?
Thanks,
Chris
I am looking for a RFP template on Procurement Outsourcing, more precisely from sourcing to contracting process.
Thanks
We've been asked by our business to get some additonal items out of Ariba into our reporting database. Today the only data we pull from Ariba are the following events with the ITK (Export Supplier Organizations, Export Charge Payment Requests, Export Payment Requests). Our business is looking to get more information from some of the fact tables like (Approval History and Requistions). Where I am stuck is trying to find an event that has this detail.
So this leads to my questions.
Is it possible to get Reports (Ariba Reporting Fields) using the ITK or any other external Process?
Hi,
I'd like to understand the main difference between a Contract Workspace and a Contract Template? When to use one versus the other? What are the main differences in terms of features?
Thank you.
Eva.
Curious as to what whether other firms are including a NDA form (non-disclosure agreement) during the RFx process. Has anyone required the supplier download, sign and attach the NDA as a response to the RFx?
Anyone that can share general best practice around the topic of NDA's is greatly appreciated.
Happy Holidays!

Hello, I just started today and I was directed here by the bank that I am trying to submit my vendor information to. I'm not sure where I was supposed to go if I'm even in the right place.
Thanks!
Anyone willing to share their bid template with me? We are a company with multiple operating units.

I'm trying to launch our punch-out catalog with a number of Ariba customers but am having a difficult time getting to the right person to finalize requirements. The contact listed in my Ariba Network account doesn't have this information. I'm looking to confirm the following so that we can go live:
- cXML version
- UNSPSC version (or list of codes accepted if the customer do not accept the complete list)
- UOM accepted
- Examples of cXML messages, including extrinic information
Usually my contacts are buyers or commodity managers that don't have this level of technical information. If Ariba has access to this on their customers' behalf and can share this, it'd be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

Hi all,
We are implementing catalogs with Ariba Procurement Content (APC) via a single OCI call set up from SAP SRM. From SAP SRM Shopping Cart, we punchout to APC, find the items (either hosted or punchout items) and bring them back into SAP SRM cart. So far, everything has been coming back correctly with the exception of UNSPSC code. We can see the UNSPSC codes getting transferred back to SAP SRM through the trace under the following highlighted fields. Per Ariba, APC's native commodity code is sent to NEW_ITEM-EXT_CATEGORY OCI field while the commodity code that SAP SRM would understand is sent under the NEW_ITEM-MATGROUP OCI field. We have compared the trace to our currently working catalogs within SAP SRM and found that all UNSPSC codes are coming back under
NEW_ITEM-MATGROUP, confirming this is the correct field.
In addition, we did a test by punchout out to APC via SAP SRM Manual PO (ECDP) and UNSPSC codes did come back and were populated for items within the Manual PO.

We do not use the Catalog Enrich BADI. However, we do have a few document check and change BADIs. We have deactivated, activated, put in break points to troubleshoot if these were in fact the root cause but we didn't find any issues from these test. We hide the majority of UNSPSC codes within SAP SRM so shoppers won't have to scroll through a list of several thousands for selection (this hiding does not affect catalog items) and thought this could also be the issue. However, we unhidden these codes and still UNSPSC codes didn't come back from APC into our SAP SRM cart.
Does anyone else have this issue with transferring catalog items from APC to SAP SRM 7? Any thoughts or advices on what else we can try on our end would be appreciated?
Thanks,
Tiara
