How do I create a new account as a Supplier in SAP Business Network?

Resolution

There are two ways to register the account: registering from the sign-in page or registering via an invitation.

After finishing the registration, SAP will send an email to confirm your account. Once you have confirmed it, you will receive a welcome email. You can now establish a trading relationship with a customer by providing them with your Business Network ID (ANID) number. They will use this to send you a relationship request. Once you accept this request, you can begin transacting with your customer.

Option A: registering account from the sign-in page

1. Go to the Supplier Sign-In Page and click Register Now.
2. Enter your Email address and check the box next to User consents to store this email ID.
3. You will receive a one-time password (OTP) at the email address you provided. Enter this password and click Continue.
4. Choose the data center

5. Fill out all mandatory fields in the registration form (marked with an *).
6. Review and accept the Terms of Use and the Privacy Statement at the bottom of the page.
7. Click Create new account. (If a message about existing accounts appears, click Review accounts to check for accounts you or someone in your company may already have registered.)

Review accounts

In the review accounts process, it is not mandatory to have access to those accounts; those accounts are a match reference. If you are not familiar with them and wish to create a new one, this page can be skipped.

Option B: registering account through invitation or Purchase Order email from a buyer

• If you receive an email invitation from a buying organization, click the link provided.
  • If you are expecting a Purchase Order but have not received one yet, you will need to contact your customer.
• If you received a Purchase Order welcome letter containing a temporary ID and secure code, follow the link and enter your received credentials.

You will be prompted to either Use existing account or Create new account. To register a new account, select Create new account and continue completing the rest.
