The document outlines the key features of SAP Ariba that optimize procurement processes:
"The key features of SAP Ariba that contribute to optimizing procurement processes are:
C. Automation of manual procurement tasks
SAP Ariba automates time-consuming, manual procurement activities—like requisitioning, purchase-order generation, invoicing, and PO-invoice matching—thereby reducing errors and freeing teams to focus on strategic sourcing.
D. Integration with other solutions
SAP Ariba seamlessly integrates with ERP systems (e.g., SAP S/4HANA), supply chain tools, and analytics platforms via options like the Cloud Integration Gateway. This ensures consistent, connected workflows across the source-to-pay lifecycle."
Why the other options are incorrect:
A. Limiting supplier collaboration requirements:"Quite the opposite: Ariba boosts collaboration through supplier networks, guided buying, and enhanced communication."
B. Increased focus on manual approvals:"Ariba actually streamlines approvals with automated workflows, reducing manual intervention."
The document summarizes, "By automating tasks and enabling tight integrations, SAP Ariba enhances efficiency, compliance, and procurement agility—making C and D the clear winners."
