How do I create an improvement or enhancement request for SAP Ariba Procurement?

SAP Ariba Procurement

The changes or enhancements to existing SAP Ariba Procurement standard functionality are not handled directly by SAP Ariba Support and require review and approval from Product Management. Customers who would like to propose enhancements or functionality changes can submit an Improvement Request through the SAP Customer Influence Portal, where the request will be evaluated for possible inclusion in future product updates.

To submit an Improvement Request:

1. Sign in to the SAP Customer Influence Portal
2. Click on the project tile for SAP Ariba Procurement (or the relevant product).
3. Click Submit Improvement in the Overview section.
4. Enter a title, select a category, and complete the enhancement template.
5. Click Submit at the bottom right to send your improvement request.

The Customer Influence portal allows customers to submit improvement requests and review or vote on enhancement requests submitted by other users. While creating a new request, the Similar Improvement Requests section automatically displays existing requests that may match your idea.
