How do I accept a customer's trading relationship request / invitation?


Resolution

A trading relationship invitation begins with an email sent by a buyer and directed to either the SAP Business Network Identification (ANID) number of an existing account or a link to set up a new account. This email is an invitation to connect with a buyer enabling you to start receiving orders and / or submitting invoices on the SAP Business Network.

To accept the trading relationship request:

  1. Click the link in the email that says Get started.
  2. The invitation link then prompts you to either Use existing account or Create new account. Select the option which best reflects your situation.
    • If you see a message about existing accounts, you can click Review accounts to check on any accounts your company may already have enabled and find contact information for the account owners.
    • If you register a new account, be sure to click the activation link in the email sent to you to verify your email address.
  3. Once logged in, in the upper-right corner of the application, click [user initials] > Settings and select Customer Relationships.
  4. Click the Pending Requests tab.
  5. Check the box to the left of the customer and click Accept.

If you would like current or future trading relationships to be Automatically accepted, please ensure that this preference is turned on at the top of the page.
