I have created a vendor record in SAP Business Network > Supplier Enablement, and I want to send this supplier an invitation letter. How do I do that?

How do I start the enablement process for a supplier?

1. Login to SAP Business Network (buyer)
2. Click Supplier Enablement > Manage Vendors
3. Search for the desired vendor record
4. Select the checkbox left to the desired vendor (you can select more than one supplier for this operation)
5. Click Start
6. Confirm the operation clicking Start > Done

When you start supplier enablement for the newly added vendor, the vendor receives a trading relationship request letter.

If the supplier has been already enabled, you'll see a warning: Enablement is already in progress for the selected suppliers.

See also Enabling suppliers on SAP Business Network to learn more about supplier enablement.
