3043644 - S/4hana <> Ariba integration solutions description/docus + required infos for contacting SAP support with any related problem (buying side)

You are facing an issue related to Ariba <-> S/4Hana / ERP scenario.

The integration happens between different layers (each color is indicating in this KBA always the same layer):

• SAP Ariba Network
• SAP S/4Hana or SAP ERP (a.k.a "SAP backend")
• The integration solution installed in the backend (see below the solutions SAP offer)
• An optional PI system between Ariba and SAP backend system, or for example CIG (Cloud Integration Gateway) as CPI (Cloud Platform Integration) - IMPORTANT: Cloud Integration Gateway as SAP product received a new name, "Managed Gateway for Spend&network" in short, long name: SAP Integration Suite, managed gateway for spend management and SAP Business Network”
  

Due to its complexity the error should be clearly understood. This is particularly important to identify on which of these layers the analysis has to be performed.

This article has the intention to help you to understand at which layer the issue is happening, to describe all the information needed from SAP, and to select the correct component at the time of opening a case. A detailed description posted to the correct team is key to ensure a smooth resolution process.

This KBA lists the buying side (MM) scenarios and support components. Supplier side (SD) is not covered in this document.
