SAP Ariba Erfahrungen

Nichts. Es gab mal einen guten Support aber vermutlich hat man den aus Kostengründen gestrichen.

Benutzeranlage: furchtbar; Übersetzungen ins Deutsche: furchtbar! Man weiß kaum, was Ariba will. Rechnung erstellen: Hilfe!!! Nichtssagende Fehlermeldungen etc. Alles schön in Screenshots dokumentiert.Ariba sollte mal bei Onventis zur Schule gehen...

is a friendly tool to use in order to manual key the invoices to the accounts payable team in order to get the payment on time, in this tool you can see the invoice status and the schedule payment date.

if there is a wrong information the invoice will not migrated to the payment system.

This ERP system does offer GUI. The systemis easy to use as compared to SAP previous versions.

There is a limit of 100 MB for each file that can be uploaded. If the file size is more then 100MB then this system will not accept it.

Provides cloud-based procurement and learners would need a basic understanding of procurement processes and supply chain management

nothing, overall i like everything about SAP ARIBA

nothing - everything in the system that I've used is broken. I've had a different problem with every PO I've created.

This is the worst software system I've ever encountered and I worked in government for 15 years. It is constantly crashing, the team buying function doesn't work, the system can't cope with changes to POs after they have initially been created. E.g. I want to break 1 payment into multiple at a later date - the system can't deal with this and now I'm left with cranky vendors who can't get their invoice paid. I manage over 30 contracts which are all multi-year. I can't get my colleagues access such that if I'm on leave they can't pay invoices for me. Some POs I've created never got sent to the vendor, even though other POs have gone. There are so many bugs in this system. Stay away from it if you are a large, complex organisation.

It is the go to tool for onlinebidding. Vendors are familiar with the tool. Buyers have another strategy for cost savings

It has so many features that sometimes creating a bidding event can take some time and effort to set up.

What I like most is that you can follow a job, from purchase order to invoice, in one place. You get notified when a purchase order has been entered or changed, and you can go in and submit your invoice against the PO once the job is done. You can also track the invoice's progress through the system on its way to payment.

What I like least about this software is that if you make a mistake, it can take some time to get it corrected in the system, sometimes taking away precious time in getting paid for a job.

You can monitor and capture some request from the customers, receive notifications, process everything online.

Is not very user friendly, support is really hard to get, you can't really create reports and search engines are not good. From a supplier's perspective is not very good.

The quality and ease of user interface. best customer service and standard in the market

basically its costly and a not suitable for small companies

It’s a compliance tool so it’s a way of ensuring that offers sent by suppliers, tender documents etc are captured centrally and survives even though an employee has left the org.

I hate Ariba and I will have plenty of reasons to justify this. First, this was not designed to be user friendly or intuitive at all! It’s like a programmer decided to be a procurement manager and started introducing complicated steps to what is otherwise straightforward. Sending a tender document to suppliers by email takes 5 min vs sending by ariba which takes anything between 5 hours to set up to 5 days depending on approval gateways.

Secondly, it’s very unforgiving. If you didn’t do something the right way, the only way to undo it is to start from scratch.

Third, it’s user interface sucks. Nothing is connected or seamless. You literally have to memorise the series of tabs and drop down cells to run a tender.

Fourth, it’s NOT customisable at all. Everything seems to be hard coded and if there’s any feature or function change it will take months even years to get implemented.

Lastly, I’ve used ariba in a previous organisation 9 years ago and well… I’m using ariba in my new org now and NOTHING has changed. So you’re buying a junk car who will tell you that to turn right you have to steer your wheel one full turn first before you can turn right.

The best about this software is that it is very easy to create requisitions with this and once it goes through the approval process get converted to Purchase Order to be sent to the supplier/vendor. It also has many features where if you are out of office you can delegate your approval to someone at the same level as you or your senior. This adds a layer to security. You can initiate POs on behalf of someone and it sends an emails about the approval flow to them for visibility purposes. You can also add an extra approver as needed. It also has a procurement app which makes approving POs so easy.

Ariba requires detailed training before use. Initial setup and training is extremely important to launch this software for everyone to use. Searching through old POs is not easy but once you learn this art it can be extremely beneficial for reports and calculations for management.

Its end to end integration of supply chain ecosystem from RFQ to final invoicing.

User Interface looks little confusing and experience little slow apart from that product wise it was awesome.

Ariba has allowed us to consolidate our ordering processes under one, simple-to-use dashboard. What before required the use of numerous on-line systems and phone calls to vendors and many hours of time per seek, can now be accomplished in one place, with a time savings of 25%.

Roll out was shaky and the learning curve was a bit steep for a number of our users. But, as with anything, practice makes perfect.

its accessibility and the flexibility that even the client and vendor can use the same platform to interact financially Due to which the cost is reduced / lower risk and easily the work is done.

First timer user needs to have a good walkthrough and step by step guide to raise PR /PO and then approving invoices.There is no free trial for the tool availableAll information on invoice has to be 100% accurate else the invoice dosen't move forward for payment

It is a really flexible piece of software for managing spend with vendors. Once vendors and services are set up it makes the whole spend process much easier meaning that purchasing decisions can be dealt with quickly and easily.

At first it can be hard to navigate the system and get everything set up.

as a Company you can outsource multiple functions to Ariba saving you lot of your precious time and money as you get one stop shop for your needs as compare to managing a big team for getting the same kind and amount of output.

Customer support service could have been better.

Supplier can able to upload their documents for vendor registration in Ariba SLP portal

The software was visually appealing and easy to use

I have absolutely zero complaints about this software.

Very easy to use and understand. It makes managing the approval of invoices really easy.

finding past invoices is not easy.
Inputs of budgets are still slow and highly manual.

This software is user-friendly for not just payables representatives, but also customers. The customers can use it to send their invoices.

Sometimes there are issues with the invoices when they get submitted by the customers, which cause delay in getting them paid.
