2 Purpose
 Tip
We recommend setting up this integration scenario using the Cloud Integration Automation Service (CIAS).
CIAS provides a guided workflow that features:
● Customer-specific system information (for example, target URLs)

● Reusable configuration settings between tasks
● Automated execution capabilities
With the included project management tool and complementary support information, CIAS helps reduce the
time you need for manual tasks. For more information, see the product page on the SAP Help Portal.
Navigate directly to the Maintenance Planner.
The integration between the SAP S/4HANA and the SAP Ariba Sourcing through SAP Ariba Cloud Integration
Gateway requires some setup to be done by the customer. The purpose of this document is to describe these
settings. Configure the settings in SAP S/4HANA on-premise, SAP Ariba Cloud Integration Gateway, and the SAP
Ariba Sourcing. Optionally, SAP Cloud Integration can be used as middleware in this scenario, see the picture
below.
 Note
SAP Cloud Integration is part of the SAP Integration Suite which is running on SAP Business Technology
Platform (SAP BTP) and encompasses API Management, Integration Advisor, and Open Connectors. To learn
more, please check this SAP Integration Suite service catalog .
If you have already integrated your SAP S/4HANA on-premise with Ariba Network for procurement (for example,
Purchase orders and/or Invoice integration), you would have already made some of the settings described in this
document.
Please ensure that you read the documentation Central Procurement with Ariba Sourcing(4QN) for further details
and current restrictions before you set up this scope item.

Since SAP CIG is exchanging SOAP messages using the Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism
protocol (MTOM), outbound services also need to be configured using MTOM. This is achieved in SOAMANAGER
using the so-called fallback logical ports. If a logical port is considered as a fallback logical port, it’s associated with
the logical port that is configured with the local configuration. As a result, when the web service is called, the
fallback logical port is used instead of the actual logical port.
This procedure describes how to manually create the fallback logical ports for all outbound services for which
you’ve created a logical port via a service group and the local configuration in chapter Create Local Integration
Scenario Configuration [page 21]. This holds true for all outbound services configured within this integration
scenario except for the ServiceEntrySheetStsNotif_Out outbound service.

Integration Gateway
5.1 Overview of the SAP Ariba Cloud Integration Gateway

Configuration
About Mappings-based Integration
SAP Ariba Cloud Integration Gateway supports mappings-based integration between SAP Ariba Sourcing and SAP
S/4HANA. Mappings-based integration enables users to customize the integration by using the SAP Ariba Cloud
Integration Gateway mapping tool.
You can access the mapping tool from the My Configurations Mappings tab in the SAP Ariba Cloud
Integration Gateway portal to create, edit, delete, and test the mappings. For more information about the mapping
tool, see About the mapping tool.
Support for Field Extensibility
As part of the mappings-based implementation, SAP Ariba Cloud Integration Gateway supports the integration of
custom fields between SAP Ariba Sourcing and SAP S/4HANA. To support custom fields, SAP Ariba creates
custom mappings based on your specific requirements. For information about managing the custom mappings
with custom fields, see How to manage custom mappings with custom fields.
To use custom fields in the Setting Up Central Procurement with Ariba Sourcing (4QN) integration scenario, have
your Designated Support Contact (DSC) submit a Service Request (SR) to:
● enable the Support for custom fields between SAP Ariba Sourcing and SAP S/4HANA Cloud integration feature
for your SAP Ariba Sourcing site.
● set up custom mappings for custom fields in SAP Ariba Cloud Integration Gateway.
An SAP Ariba Support representative will follow up to complete the request.
When SAP Ariba Sourcing creates sourcing requests based on RFQs that contain custom fields from SAP S/
4HANA, SAP Ariba maps the custom header-level and line item-level fields to fields in SAP Ariba Sourcing. For more
information about managing mappings in SAP Ariba Sourcing, see Manage Mappings [page 52].
For more information about custom mappings, see Managing custom mappings.

6 Configuration for SAP Ariba
6.1 Configuration for SAP Ariba Sourcing
Configure your SAP Ariba Sourcing account to receive the Central request for quotation (CRFQ) from the SAP S/
4HANA hub system. On receipt of an RFQ, SAP Ariba Sourcing sends an RFQ confirmation message to the SAP S/
4HANA hub system. SAP Ariba Sourcing processes the request for quotation and creates a sourcing request. The
sourcing manager approves the request, creates a sourcing event, and invites suppliers to participate based on the
information available in the request for quotation. SAP Ariba Sourcing sends the supplier quotations to SAP S/
4HANA On Premise Hub and receives the quotation confirmation message from SAP S/4HANA.
You require certain roles and authorizations to process the sourcing events and send back the information about
the bids to the SAP S/4HANA hub system.
6.1.1 Prerequisites for Requests for Quotation
You need the following to receive the requests for quotation from the SAP S/4HANA Hub system and send back the
response from SAP Ariba Sourcing to the SAP S/4HANA Hub system:
Prerequisites for Ariba Sourcing
● You must have an SAP Ariba Sourcing account with full authorization as an Enterprise user that has all the
group permissions. SAP Ariba requires you to have the user ID and password to log in to the account.
● Ensure that the external system ID in SAP Ariba Sourcing contains the SenderBusinessSystemID of the SAP S/
4HANA instance.
● By default, the solution is configured to use the SYS0220 template for the incoming RFQs. If you need to use a
different template, work with SAP Ariba Support to configure the appropriate value for the site parameter
Application.ACM.S4Hana.DefaultSourcingProjectTemplate.
 Note
If you are integrating the guided sourcing functionality, ensure that the template you use has guided

44 PUBLIC Configuration for SAP Ariba
6.2 Restrictions for Requests for Quotation
SAP S/4 HANA On-Premise
● Ensure that the records of suppliers you add to a central request for quotation are present in SAP S/4HANA
and in SAP Ariba.
● Currently, the 4QN scope item does not support lean services, service line items, and service hierarchies in
request for quotations.
● SAP Ariba does not differentiate between attachments that have the same file name but different content. It is
recommended that you use different file names for attachments that contain different content. If you attach
multiple files with the same file name to different line items, only one of the files is transferred as the
attachment to that document.
● The business process flow in Manage Central Request for quotation does not support status display for
purchase orders from local connected system.
SAP Ariba Sourcing
● SAP Ariba does not support adding new line items to the central request for quotation. Although the Sourcing
Manager does have the permissions to add line items to the central request for quotation sent from the S/
4HANA system, SAP Ariba recommends that no new line items are added.
● Sourcing projects can only contain suppliers that exist on the SAP S/4HANA (business partners) and SAP
Ariba Sourcing.
● SAP S/4HANA does not support changes to the delivery address in the central request for quotation. SAP
Ariba recommends that buyers must not change the delivery address available in the central request for
quotation while creating a sourcing project on SAP Ariba Sourcing. The delivery address must remain the same
in the central request for quotation and the sourcing project.
● SAP Ariba supports custom fields of only the following data types:
○ Text
○ Date
○ Number
○ Money
○ Boolean
● If custom fields with field type Checkbox are mapped to custom fields with field type Boolean in SAP Ariba
Sourcing, checkboxes that are not selected in SAP S/4HANA are represented as an empty value in SAP Ariba
Sourcing, because Boolean fields are defined as a three-state variable. Checkboxes that are selected in SAP S/
4HANA are represented with the value Yes in SAP Ariba Sourcing
● The following restrictions apply to the attachments:
○ Because the maximum payload size that SAP Ariba Sourcing supports is 100 MB, the attachment size is
restricted to 90 MB and 10 MB of payload is reserved for RFQ/cRFQ messages.
○ Suppliers can only attach one document to their event response.

● Currently, the 4QN integration scenario that uses the guided sourcing functionality does not display the award
confirmation message.
Ariba Sourcing.
○ Text
○ Date
○ Number
○ Money
○ Boolean
○ Note that the maximum payload size SAP Ariba Sourcing supports is 100 MB. To ensure the total payload
size does not exceed 100 MB, the attachment size is restricted to 90 MB, and 10 MB of payload is reserved
for RFQ/cRFQ messages.
6.3 Import Master Data
6.3.1 Import Master Data Using CSV Files or Worksheets
Prerequisites
You must be a member of a group that can access Ariba Administrator. (If you're not a member, you won't see the
Administration option on the Manage menu.) Once you're in Ariba Administrator, the options you can see depend
on the groups you belong to.

Context
The administration area includes workspaces and tasks that let you maintain your data. Add your master data in
the appropriate data worksheets and import it using the data import tasks available from Site Manager in Ariba
Administrator. These steps are for importing data that does not require translation.
SAP Ariba helps you define and import your data by providing you a site enablement workbook. The SAP Ariba
Project manager assigned to your deployment provides you the workbook. The worksheets in the site enablement
workbook provide data templates to aid defining your data for import.
You can also define your data in comma-separated value (CSV) files instead of using worksheets in the site
enablement workbook.
Procedure
1. Log in to your site using your administrator username and password.

2. On the dashboard, choose Manage Administration .
3. In Ariba Administrator, click Site Manager, and then click Data Import/Export.
4. Click Import next to the data import task you want to run.
Data Import Type Data Import Task
Enterprise Users Import Enterprise Users
Commodity code mappings Import Commodity Code Mappings
Commodity codes Import Commodity Codes
Currency conversion rates Import Currency Conversion Rates
Departments Import Departments
Regions Import Region Codes
Commodity code/supplier organization mappings Import External Organization Commodity Codes
Supplier Organizations Import Supplier Organizations
Supplier Users Import Supplier Users
Units of Measure Import Units of Measure
5. Select the type of data import operation you want to perform. The data import operation you choose
determines exactly how the data is imported.
The maximum number of objects that can be removed from the database at one time is 160,000. This number
is controlled by a system parameter. If this number is exceeded, a warning message appears.
The following table describes import operations. If a data import task does not support a particular data import
operation, that operation is not available.

Import Operation Description
Load Creates and modifies objects using the values in the import
file. If an object in the import file doesn't exist in the data
base, the object is created. If an object in the import file al
ready exists in database, it is modified using values in the im
port file.
Create Creates new objects in the database using the values in the
import file. If an object in the import file already exists in the
database, it is not modified.
Update Only Modifies existing objects using the values in the import files.
If an object in the import file doesn't already exist in the da
tabase, the object is not created.
 Note
If you don't want to modify an object, don't include it in
any data file associated with this import operation. Do
ing so can lead to inadvertent data loss, object deactiva
tion, or object reactivation.
When you import user group mappings, Update Only

performs a full load for the groups you include in the
header file (UserParentGroup.csv). The mappings in the
detail file (GroupSharedUserMap.csv) replace existing
mappings for all the groups in UserParentGroup.csv.
Deactive Deactivates objects. All the objects listed in the import file
are deactivated in the database. If you don't want to deacti
vate an object, don't include it in the import file.
6. Enter the location of the relevant files, or click Browse to find and select the files.
7. Click OK to import your data, or click Cancel to exit without importing your data.
8. Click Refresh Status on the Data Import/Export page to view the current status of the data import.
Next Steps
For detailed status information, click the link in the Status column.
6.3.2 Verify the Imported Master Data
After importing your data, you need to verify that the data was imported correctly. To verify a large dataset (over
2000 items), or to verify other types of data, such as units of measure, you can export the data to a file and then
compare it to the data in your import file.

Prerequisites
You must be a member of the Customer Administrator or Customer User Admin group in order to add users to a
site.
Context
You add suppliers to invite them to the sourcing event. Each supplier user must have a user account. Each supplier
user must belong to a supplier organization. A supplier organization uniquely identifies a supplier. A supplier
organization can contain any number of supplier users.
The suppliers you create on SAP Ariba Sourcing must also be registered on Ariba Network. The status of each
supplier must be Public. Ensure that you also maintain the SAP ERP vendor key information, including the vendor
ID for the supplier.
If you need to add many users, it is more efficient to run data import tasks. For more information, see the Common
data import and administration guide for SAP Ariba Strategic Sourcing and Supplier Management solutions.

Procedure
1. On the dashboard, click Manage Administration .

2. In Ariba Administrator, click User Manager, and then click Users.
3. On the Users page, click Create User.

apostrophe.
○ Name: The display name for the user.
○ Organization: Do not modify the value in this field.
○ Business Email Address: The user’s business email address.
User email addresses are checked for validity. Valid email addresses be entered, even in test environments.
Invalid email addresses trigger an error message and must be corrected. By default, an email address must
include a valid, existing domain. (The domain name is the part of the email address that appears after the @
sign.) SAP Ariba Support can set a parameter to turn off the domain portion of the validity check, in which case
only syntax is checked. The name of the parameter is Application.Base.EnforceEmailDomainCheck
 Note
If SAP Ariba Support configured a set of valid email address domain names specifically for your site, any
domain you use in the Business Email Address field must match a domain in that set, unless you select the
Allow External Email Domain option (see below).
○ Allow External Email Domain-Check this checkbox to allow an unapproved email address domain for
this user.
○ Business Phone Number - The user’s business phone number.
○ Business Fax Number - The user’s business fax number.
○ Locale- The user’s default locale.
○ Default Currency - The user’s default currency. You must use a currency code defined on the Reference
- System Level Codes worksheet.
○ Time zone - The user’s time zone.
○ Supervisor- The user’s supervisor.
5. On the Invitation tab set your preference for user password generation and login invitation:
○ Check the checkbox if you want Ariba Administrator to generate a temporary password and send a login
invitation message to the user immediately after you click Save.
○ Clear the check box (the default) if you want to manually generate a temporary password before Ariba
Administrator sends a login invitation message.
6. On the Ship To Addresses tab, click Add/Remove to display the available shipping addresses and enter the
user’s ship-to address.
7. On the Billing Addresses tab, click Add/Remove to display the available billing addresses and enter the user’s
billing address.
8. On the Groups tab, click Add/Remove to display the available groups. Select one or more groups to assign to
the new user and click Done.
9. Click Save to save your changes or click Cancel to return to the previous page without saving your changes.

Results
If you allow SAP Ariba to generate a temporary password for the user, the user receives the system-generated
email invitation containing a temporary password and instructions for logging in to SAP Ariba. When the user clicks
the URL in the invitation, the user is prompted to create a new password.
 Tip
The status of each supplier user must be Public. To verify this, go to Manage Administration Supplier and
Customer Manager Users and search for the supplier user whose status you want to check.
If the supplier user status is not set to Public, follow these steps to change the status to Public.
Go to Manage Administration Supplier and Customer Manager Users and search for the supplier user
whose status you want to change.
(Optional) If the account is not activated, click Actions Activate .

6.6 Manage Mappings
You can configure SAP Ariba Sourcing to receive RFQs from SAP S/4 HANA On-Premise Hub system that contains
custom fields. When SAP Ariba Sourcing creates sourcing requests based on the RFQs from SAP S/4 HANA On-
Premise Hub system that contain custom fields, SAP Ariba maps the custom header-level fields and line-item fields
to fields in SAP Ariba Sourcing.
SAP Ariba maps header-level custom fields in the RFQs from SAP S/4 HANA On-Premise Hub system to the
available ERP Integration Fields in SAP Ariba Sourcing. In SAP Ariba Sourcing, you must create ERP Integration

Fields that map to custom fields in RFQs. The line item-level custom fields in the RFQs from SAP S/4 HANA On-
Premise Hub system are mapped to the Term fields in SAP Ariba Sourcing.
To be able to use mappings-based integration of custom fields between SAP Ariba Sourcing and SAP S/4 HANA
On-Premise Hub system:
● Custom fields included in the QuoteRequestHeader must be available in SAP Ariba Sourcing; otherwise, the
fields will not be mapped.
● Custom fields created in SAP Ariba Sourcing for line item-level fields must be configured as Terms.
● Custom fields created in SAP Ariba Sourcing must be configured as ERP Integration Fields.
● Custom field names in the QuoteRequestHeader and in SAP Ariba Sourcing should match.
6.6.1 How to Create a Term Field in SAP Ariba Sourcing
You can create Term Fields in SAP Ariba Sourcing that map to line item-level custom fields in the RFQs from SAP S/
4HANA On-Premise Hub System.
● You must be a member of one of the following groups:
