The supplier synchronized with my ERP still has an Integration Status of In Progress.

To resolve this issue, check the ERP to see why the Confirmation_Out message was not sent to SAP Ariba Supplier Lifecycle and Performance (SLP).

The Request_In message was sent to the ERP once the synchronization was initiated. However, the Confirmation_Out message from the ERP was not received. Once the Confirmation_Out message has been received and successfully processed by SLP, the Integration Status will be updated to Integrated.

To check the messages sent to/received from the ERP in Supplier Management (SLP), follow the below steps:

1. Log in to the Ariba dashboard.
2. Click Manage > SM Administration.
3. Click ERP Integration Status.
4. Search for the vendor.

Note: If the Supplier Manager (SLP) Parameter Enable external ERP approval is enabled, the ERP will send a Request_Out message instead of a Confirmation_Out to update the integration status of the vendor after the approval is completed in the ERP.
