SAP S/4HANA – Manage Central RFQs
There are different processes that you can start from within the Manage Central RFQs app (F3974):
- You send your created Central RFQs later to SAP Ariba Sourcing, where the bidders / suppliers can place their bids. After you have decided which one should receive the award, you send the awarded quotation back to the Central RFQ. A purchase order or a central contract is created automatically in the background.
- To request only price and quantity information or shipping costs, you send these Central RFQs later to the Ariba Network, where the suppliers can create their bids. These bids are sent back to Central RFQ, where you can award one of them.
- You can also create price requests in SAP S/4HANA and send them directly to your supplier via e-mail or as a printed version by mail. You receive the quotations from your suppliers and then create the quotations in Central RFQ manually.
