Invoice Rejection Comments from S/4 HANA to SAP Ariba Business Network for supplier

[PrashantGite]

Dear Experts,

We have a commerce automation license for our customer. When a supplier submits an invoice from Ariba to S/4 HANA, a workflow is triggered and if a user rejects an invoice and give comments, our expectation is to send to  rejection comments to DSN where supplier can see the comments under History tab.

Would you please let us know if we can achieve this through a BADI or if any one has already implemented a solution for this scenario?

Your help is highly appreciated here.

To be more specific, invoices can get rejected in two ways 1) Automatic This Rejection is trigerred we have a standard error or business rules defined in buyer network are not fulfilled. In such cases SAP Ariba makes sure sending the comments to supplier under history tab 2) In case of manual rejection it can be due to missing documents in such case comments are not reflecting. Can we achieve this ?

To call an Ariba API from S/4HANA, you use the Ariba Network Invoice Header Data Extraction API. This API allows you to extract invoice header data from Ariba.
API Name: Ariba Network Invoice Header Data Extraction API
Usage: Yes, you can use this API to extract invoice header data from Ariba when calling from S/4HANA.
