Hi,
I’m currently working on integrating SAP Ariba with ServiceNow using the SAP Ariba Spoke (IntegrationHub). Our objective is to synchronize Vendors (Suppliers) from SAP Ariba into ServiceNow and eventually create/update records in the core_company table.
Current Progress:
1. Installed the SAP Ariba Spoke.
2. Configured the required Connection & Credential Aliases.
3. Successfully configured several REST/OAuth connections.
4. OAuth token is being generated successfully.
5. We have reviewed the official ServiceNow documentation and completed the connection configuration.
Challenge:
The documentation mainly explains how to configure the connections, but it doesn’t explain the complete end-to-end process after the connections are established. We’re looking for guidance on:
1. Which SAP Ariba action should be executed first to retrieve supplier/vendor data?
2. Is there any out-of-the-box Flow or Subflow that should be used, or do we need to create our own Flow?
3. How do the following components work together?
- Execute Export Task
- Copy Ariba File to Data Source
- Import Set
- Transform Map
4. Are there any out-of-the-box Data Sources and Transform Maps available, or are they expected to be created manually?
5. What is the recommended approach to synchronize vendors into the core_company table?
6. Are there any implementation guides, sample flows, or best practices that demonstrate the complete end-to-end process?
Additional Information Our initial scope is only:
- Synchronize Suppliers/Vendors from SAP Ariba
- Populate the core_company table
- Run the synchronization on a scheduled basis (daily/weekly) If anyone has implemented this integration or can share the recommended approach, documentation, or sample implementation, it would be greatly appreciated.
