What are the supported credential domains in a cXML document?
Question
In the header of any cXML document, there are several elements of the following form:
<Credential domain="domainType">
<Identity>IDValue</Identity>
</Credential>
What are the supported domains (values for domainType)?
Answer
SAP Ariba applications use a number of domains for cXML credential IDs:
| Domain (domainType) | Meaning | ID Mapping | Limitations | Example value (IDValue) |
| NetworkID | A unique alphanumeric value assigned to every organization registered on SAP Business Network. | - | - | AN01000000123 |
| DUNS | A unique number assigned to organizations by Dun & Bradstreet. To check or update your registration, visit https://www.dnb.com/. | - | - | 942888711 |
| AribaNetworkUserId | The user name of an SAP Business Network user. | When SAP Business Network receives invoices from service providers, it attempts to map these IDs to NetworkID or PrivateId. If it cannot map IDs, it sends the invoices to the buying organization’s Unassigned Invoices page. | - | judy@workchairs.com |
| PrivateId | A unique alphanumeric value defined by a buying organization for a particular supplier. | When SAP Business Network receives documents from buying organizations, it maps these IDs to NetworkID. When SAP Business Network sends documents to buying organizations, it maps suppliers’ NetworkID, DUNS, and AribaNetworkID to PrivateId. | For quick enablement or supplier connectivity only. Suppliers cannot use this domain. | v2034 |
| ProviderId | A unique alphanumeric value defined by a service provider for a particular supplier. | When SAP Business Network receives invoices from service providers, it attempts to map these IDs to NetworkID or PrivateId. If it cannot map IDs, it sends the invoices to the buying organization’s Unassigned Invoices page. | For quick enablement only. Buying organizations and suppliers cannot use this domain. | v2034 |
| VendorID | The UniqueName of a supplier in a buyer's ERP system and SAP Ariba Procurement solution. Used with a VendorSiteID credential to uniquely identify a supplier. | When SAP Business Network receives documents from buying organizations, it maps these IDs to NetworkID. | - | v2034 |
| VendorSiteID | A combination of two IdReference elements with SiteID and SiteAuxID, which uniquely identify a supplier location. Used with a VendorID credential to uniquely identify a supplier. | SiteID refers to the UniqueName of the supplier location in SAP Ariba Procurement solutions, and SiteAuxID refers to the contact ID. | Suppliers cannot use this domain. This domain is applicable to buyers using on-demand SAP Ariba Procurement solutions and buyers using SAP Ariba Commerce Automation with the Oracle Fusion Middleware adapter. | <IdReference domain="SiteID" identifier="MainSite"> <IdReference domain="SiteAuxID" identifier="contact2"> |
| SystemID | A unique alphanumeric value defined by a buying organization for a particular business application. | When SAP Business Network receives documents containing this ID domain, it associates them with the business application and Bill To addresses configured in the buyer’s account. | For supplier connectivity only. | SAP1 |
| SSPPrivateID | An automatically generated supplier location private ID (called the SAP Business Network Private ID in SAP Ariba Procurement solutions), which uniquely identifies the supplier location. | Prior to release 12s2, this value was sent using the PrivateID domain. To ensure proper routing of legacy documents that use PrivateID for specifying this auto-generated value, SAP Business Network uses both SSPPrivateID and PrivateID to find matching suppliers in documents sent from the SAP Ariba solution. Outbound documents do not include the SSPPrivateID domain. They use the PrivateID domain to include the supplier location private ID value. | For on-demand SAP Ariba Procurement solutions only. Suppliers cannot use this domain. | v2034__MainSite__contact2 |
