What happens when a supplier organization creates a new Ariba Commerce Cloud user?
Question

What happens when a supplier organization creates a new Ariba Commerce Cloud user?

Answer

When a supplier organization creates a new user, buying organizations currently linked to the supplier's Ariba Commerce Cloud account see the user when viewing the supplier organization details.

The following parameters control the behavior of new supplier users created in the cloud:

ParameterDescription
Application.AOD.EnableAdditionalSupplierUserDataSyncThis controls whether new users created in the Ariba Commerce Cloud are synced with your site.
Application.AOD.EnableAutoApproveSupplierUserOnDataSyncThis determines whether to automatically approve new Ariba Commerce Cloud users in your site or manually approve them.


By default, new users are not approved, cannot be invited to events, or participate in any other part of the your site. A member of the Supplier/Customer Manager group must select the check box next to the user and click Approve.

Additional Information

If your supplier creates a user that already exists, your site automatically adjusts the user's ID (by appending it with _1) so it does not conflict. The supplier's user ID in your site has no impact on the user ID for the user's Ariba Commerce Cloud account. The ID in your site provides a way for you to identify the user.

Only the administrator of an Ariba Commerce Cloud account can make changes to the organization profile. Non-administrator users do not have access to this part of the Ariba Commerce Cloud. Because there can be only one administrator for a supplier organization, the administrator must reassign the administrator role to another user if that user needs to make changes.
