We have consolidated three separate release guides into one convenient new guide, titled What's new in SAP Ariba.
Previously, SAP Ariba provided separate release guides for Ariba Network, SAP Ariba Applications, and SAP Ariba Cloud Integration Gateway. These three guides were released at different release cadences (monthly/quarterly), which made it difficult to find and learn about new features.
Starting with the SAP Ariba 2008 release, all SAP Ariba cloud solutions have the same release cadence. Consequently, the three separate guides have been consolidated into one convenient new guide, titled What's new in SAP Ariba.
The What's new in SAP Ariba guide is available in both HTML and PDF formats. It's cumulative; each quarter, it's updated with newly available features, which simplifies how you learn about them. There's no need to search for different release guides--just bookmark the What's new in SAP Ariba guide and you'll have the latest content on new features. Here are some key points:
- The HTML version of What's new in SAP Ariba contains an interactive table that allows you to sort and filter features by product, audience, and enablement model.
- You can export this table to a CSV file for offline review. You can also download a full PDF, or create a custom PDF containing up to 100 topics that you select.
- The new What's new in SAP Ariba guide resides on the What's New tabs of all SAP Ariba product pages, including the SAP Ariba page.
- SAP Ariba Connect will be updated to provide a separate What's New tab under Documentation & Learning. For the three-week SAP Ariba Buyer Release Notice scheduled for July 24, that's where you'll find the What's new in SAP Ariba guide as well as previously released SAP Ariba release guides.
- Additionally, Ariba Help Center and SAP Ariba Connect now leverage the same SAP Ariba documentation available on the SAP Help Portal. This documentation is available without login, and it's also freely searchable with Internet search engines.
