Self service procurement punchout (Ariba)

[bruce51]

Hi,

I need to set up a punchout in S4HANA 2020 via Cxml protocol. The vendor catalog is hosted at Ariba. Usually I use OCI protocol with my vendors, so no problem for the connection. Does anybody know how to connect my system to the vendor catalog (Cxml protocol)? Can I call up the vendor catalog from my system like for the OCI catalog. If so which data have I to pass in the web service ?

Thanks for your help

Regards

Hi Bruce,

SAP ECC or S4 Hana connect with external catalogs including Ariba (APC) using OCI protocol as standard.

Hi Vijay,

Thanks for your reply. I have set up OCI protocol. It seems we can use CPI but not our choice.
