SAP Ariba Guided Buying: Reliable PReq processes using AI

Even purchasing departments working with SAP software have the problem that many of the descriptions of free text purchase requisitions were not sufficiently precise or contained mistakes. This makes more work for purchasing staff and increases throughput times. Intelligent purchasing assistants can help ensuring the quality of the PReq processes, even in an already considerably optimised SAP buying system.

Product features for users of SAP Ariba Guided Buying

Master data intelligence

Copilot proposes appropriate master data, including the associated cost centers, material groups, vendors and any existing outline agreements.

Users guided to the appropriate buying channel

Avoid unnecessary free text requisitions with the aid of a background check of catalogues, outline agreements and specific forms. Save money by having your employees guided reliably to the preferred buying channel.

Embedded FAQ

If a requester has a question relating to internal policies, processes or functionalities, they can simply ask Copilot. Copilot will respond in natural language – at any time.
This reduces the workload on purchasing staff and allows requesters to complete their task more quickly.

Free text guidance

Copilot provides assistance to your employees with the creation of meaningful descriptions. This helps vendors to understand what they need to supply.

Continuous policy monitoring

Copilot checks PReq parameters and attachments (e.g., quotations) on the basis of your internal policies and compliance requirements. Are attachments mandatory in certain cases? Do PReqs need to be specific to individual vendors? Are all account assignment objects not permitted in every case?
