Prerequisites

This feature is supported in the classic SAP Ariba Sourcing user interface and the guided sourcing user interface. To use this feature in the guided sourcing user interface, your site must have guided sourcing enabled and you must be a member of the Category Buyer group.

The sourcing event must have at least one line item before you can use Simplified Excel Import to import more line items.

Restrictions

Updating the sourcing event content using Simplified Excel Import does not update the initial values and attachments specific to the participants. You must update these fields either on the UI, or by using the standard import option.
