This feature introduces a more streamlined onboarding experience for both existing suppliers and net-new suppliers, and also introduces SAP Business Network as the name for the unified network experience for all trading partners. It includes two different workflows: when a buyer invites a supplier to establish a business relationship, and when a supplier initiates a relationship (walk up). This makes the supplier registration process easier to navigate and understand. It includes a refreshed look and feel, a new universal registration landing page, buyer branded invitation messages, improved navigation, augmented search for existing accounts, improved communication directives, more intuitive UI, and overall enhancements to the registration workflow.
1. The UI and emails for supplier registration on Ariba Network are outdated and inconsistent.
2. Suppliers are confused by the role of SAP Ariba and only know their buyer.
1. Suppliers invited to register by their buyer will see the buyer’s brand and not get confused by Ariba Network messaging.
2. Suppliers will have a uniform and modern UX for registering on Ariba Network.

The new feature is available with only one template (Trading Relationship Request letter (SAP Trading Network). This template should be activated.
If a buyer does not already have a logo in their Company Profile and does not add one before sending any business relationship request, suppliers will go to a registration landing page with no branding (No buyer brand logo / No SAP Brand logo).
The new registration template is not available in test accounts. The new template is only available in production accounts.
The existing templates are all available in test accounts so you can expect the same behavior.
