Overall Satisfaction with SAP Business Network
We as supplier connect with our customers for enabling punchout level 1 & 2. Customers with sufficient orderlines will go through a full EDI integration (orders, order confirmations, despatch advice, except from e-invoicing, this will go in Belgium mandatory via Peppol. Eriks will never go for PO-flip due to the complexity of our organisation (no reduction of administration). There is no link between the Business Network and the tendering process. This makes the tendering process very complex and we loose a lot of time. This must be improved.
Pros
- Catalog
- EDI integration
Cons
- Tendering process
- Communication between customer and supplier
- Support between customer and supplier
- Integrations with international customers: involvement of local organization is important
- Very good for punchout & EDI integration (ORDERS)
- Returning messages: Ariba is too strict and allows no differences. All issues are addressed to supplier even if customer doesn't follow the EDI-rules
OK for punchout, EDI integration for orders.
Too strict for returning messages.
Too strict for returning messages.
