What changes are coming with the new supplier portal and workbench?

In 2021, we are introducing a new look and feel, navigation and menu options, tile overview bar, and widgets to align all SAP Ariba products. Here are the main changes to expect in your account:

• The Enablement tab houses all of your Enablement Tasks from buyers you're connected with on the Ariba Network.
• The Opportunities tab is for all your collaboration requests.
• The Orders tab is your new Inbox. This is where you can access purchase orders, contracts, and order inquiries.
• The Fulfillment tab houses order confirmations, service sheets, time and expense sheets, ship notices, goods receipts, and drafts for any of these documents.
• The Invoices tab is your new Outbox. This is where you can access invoices, archived invoices, timestamp verifications, and invoice drafts.
• The Payments tab allows you to see early payments, scheduled payments, and remittances from your buyers.
  
  
• The Quick links drop-down menu includes shortcut options to:
  • Create documents (PO invoices, Non-PO invoices, Contract invoices, Service Entry sheets, and Time & Expense sheets).
  • Track information (Pending Queue and Notifications).
  • CSV templates and upload options.
• New widgets on the home page to provide a dashboard view of your activity on the Ariba Network. You'll get insights on invoice aging, PO volume, new leads, and more!

We are rolling out the new supplier portal and workbench in waves, so not every account will see these changes at the same time. Once your account has been enabled with the new supplier portal and workbench, you will be able to go back to classic view temporarily if you're not able to find something in the new portal.

General availability to the supplier portal and workbench for all accounts is scheduled for May 2021.
