Good Afternoon,

We are getting some problems connectig sap PI 7.4 dual stack with the Ariba Network, but we can't identify why the connection is not working well.

We have updated the cxml adapter and all the steps to configure the scenario as it says at connect.ariba.com but when we send a message to Ariba the following error is been produced:

Message could not be forwarded to the JCA adapter. Reason: Error when sending message: Profile request failed for [Channel] CCT_OrderEnquiry_cXML_Receiver with the following [ERROR] Cannot connect to Ariba SN

This is the configuration made for the communication channel:

Migration Path of Ariba DFS ActiveX Component

Currently, we are using the Ariba DFS ActiveX component from Windows 7 desktops to sync files from MS Office to Ariba. Since we will be upgrading user desktops to Windows 10, I wanted to know what the migration path for DFS will be since the Windows 10 Edge browser does not support ActiveX controls anymore. I know that IE11 will still be available as a legacy engine and will support DFS in 32 bit mode, but would like to know what the plan is when Internet Explorer is discontinued altogether.

Is there a way to download supplier list & can we create a score card or supplier rating template in Ariba ?

$

There are two questions which I would like to put forward for answers or solutions.

 

  1. How can we export the entire supplier list from Ariba ?
    There is a scenario which I will put forward to support the question. There is a huge list of suppliers in the system but since one supplier participates in one or more events simultaneously, their usernames are duplicated in the system. I would like to clean this list by exporting the entire supplier list into excel, delete the unnecessary / duplicate usernames for the same supplier and upload it back to Ariba. Simultaneously, I would like to create a database in excel or Ariba for reference along with the contact information / address. Any assistance to my query will be appreciated.
  2. Is there a way we can create a score card for these suppliers. I have read in Ariba documents that the software is capable of this query.

        After the events ran in the system, is there a way we can create a report / score card to rate the supplier performance on the event as well as in delivering the services.

 

Thank you in advance !

How to manage Event Exchange Rates?

Hi,

New to sourcing and I'm struggling with the Exchange Rate concept.

We have Upstream and Downstream on demand site.

I can load currencies via "Import Currency Conversion Rates (CSV)".  But nothing happens for Event Exchange Rate Sets.

How do I update the default rates in "System Currency Conversion Rates"?

At the moment it holds rates from 1999.  Also - how do I add/remove currency pairs to the "System Currency Conversion Rates" list?  I know that I can create a new Exchange Rate set and enter pairs and values, but that doesn't seem like a good option if I have to maintain lots of pairs and update them regularlypai

Any suggestions are welcome, Chr

Reverse Auctions

I have been tasked with trying to implement the use of more reverse auctions within our organization.  We have held many forward auctions but we seem to meet a lot of resistance around reverse auctions.  I'm reaching out the Ariba community for some feedback on the usage of auctions. Below are some of my questions:

 

1)   1)  On average how many eAuctions do you hold in a month?

3    2)  When implementing the use of eAuctions did you experience resistance from others in your Procurement dept? Suppliers? Business Partners?

           If yes, how did you overcome this in order to receive buy-in from these different parties?

4)   3)  How do we increase the number of eAuctions?

5)   4)  How do you determine what goes to eAuction? Do you auction both product and services?

6)   5)  Do you generally hold an RFP before going to eAuction?

7)   6)  How do you open your eAuctions for?

8)   7)   From your experience what do you feel is the key to a successful eAuction?

9)   8)   In terms of savings how successful do find eAuctions?  Can you estimate how much more you’ve saved since implementing eAuctions?

Change Ariba PO !!

Hi Ariba Experts

 

Once the PO is approved, it can be changed in ARIBA ?

 

For example , we know that in ECC the PO can only be changed if we reversal the GR first, but the question is

after the PO in ariba has a good receipt in ECC, it can be changed or will be blocked for maintenance ?

 

Regards

 

Marcel H.
