Ariba network adapter

Hello All

Is ariba network adapter is free or do we need to procure it separately?

Is there any comparison on integrating using the AN adapter vs using the Business Suite add-on?

Bejamin,

- A typical ARIBA Network Integration is a IDoc to cXML Integration in PI and vice versa with PI Doing the mappings.

- The Business Suite Add On will make sure that the output from ECC is the cXML in itself , where the data from ECC is pushed using SOAP or Proxies.

- For a customer who is already having various other Supplier Integrations ( say through EDI ), the IDoc triggers already exist which means it just involves work on the Integration Layer.

For a detailed comparison between these two - would suggest you look up the RDS on https://service.sap.com/rds
