Hello SAP Ariba Supplier Management Community and welcome to our 2405 key innovations blog for supplier management. We have some great new features coming out this quarter with enhancements to our extensibility, advanced integration with D&B Direct+ as well as a new way to monitor and report on finding and event collaboration. Let’s drive right in!

New Endpoint in Supplier Data API with Pagination to Extract Inactive Suppliers

We have enhanced our Supplier Data API to include a new endpoint, inactiveVendorDataRequests, which allows users to extract data of all inactive suppliers in your site. This addition will empower your organization to retrieve comprehensive details of inactive suppliers, such as supplier names, addresses, registration status, qualification status, and more.

Monitor Findings for Finding and Event Collaboration

Our new Monitor Findings app simplifies the tracking of actions initiated with suppliers during finding and event collaboration. This application enables users to view and download reports based on their involvement and contributions to specific findings. Users can also customize reports to reflect specific findings and export the data to a spreadsheet for further analysis. This application not only enhances the visibility of actions but also promotes informed decision-making and easier regulatory reporting.Monitor Findings for Finding and Event CollaborationMonitor Findings for Finding and Event Collaboration

 

Dun & Bradstreet Integration Using D&B Direct+

This feature adds the option for using the newer D&B Direct+ product to retrieve data for selected fields in supplier requests and registration questionnaires. We recommend customers upgrade their D&B integrations to use D&B Direct+ as it provides continued business usage with minimal configuration. This feature ensures customers stay updated with the latest offerings from D&B.

We are confident these new features in the SAP Ariba 2405 release will provide our customers with an improved experience and more streamlined processes. As always, we are dedicated to continuous improvement and innovation in our solutions to serve you better.

We invite you to explore these features in more detail in our SAP Ariba 2405 Release Key Innovations Preview. Also, stay tuned for our additional upcoming blog posts and follow me to stay informed on upcoming feature releases across SAP Ariba.

Thank you for being a part of the SAP Ariba community and we look forward to continuing our journey of innovation together!
