This document describes How to configure SAP Integration Suite as middleware with SAP Ariba Cloud
Integration Gateway between SAP S/4HANA and SAP Ariba solutions.

CONFIGURING SAP INTEGRATION SUITE

You can configure SAP Integration Suite and redirect the flow of transactions between SAP S/4HANA and
SAP Ariba solutions through it. After this configuration, the outbound and the inbound transactions flow as
follows:
• The outbound transactions flow through SAP Integration Suite and SAP Ariba Cloud Integration Gateway
to SAP Ariba solutions.
• The inbound transactions from SAP Ariba solutions flow through SAP Ariba Cloud Integration Gateway to
SAP Integration Suite. Then, these transactions pass through SAP Cloud Connector to SAP S/4HANA

PREREQUISITES

Prerequisites for SAP Ariba Cloud Integration Gateway

Configure SAP Ariba Cloud Integration Gateway to send and receive documents through middleware.

Prerequisites for a private tenant

• Maintain the user credentials in the Manage Security Material page to connect SAP S/4HANA and SAP
Ariba Cloud Integration Gateway. Enter username and password to connect and deploy the user
credentials. Ensure that you do this first before you download the SAP ERP and SAP S/4HANA
Integration with the SAP Ariba package.
• Choose the package for the value mapping.
The value mapping package has two sets of agency values, one set stores the values for the outbound
transaction and the other for the inbound transactions. The outbound value mapping starts with the
agency name ACIG and the inbound value mapping starts with the agency name S4HANA.
• Import integration package. The integration package includes integration flows and value mappings. You
can access the integration package from the catalog page in the Discover section on the SAP Integration
Suite web application.

CONFIGURING SAP INTEGRATION SUITE

Perform the following steps on SAP Integration Suite:
• Logon to the SAP Integration Suite web application as an administrator.
• Create content packages for the integration flows for SAP Ariba solutions and deploy them. Create
separate packages for Ariba Network and SAP Ariba Buying (with guided buying capability enabled). SAP
Ariba Strategic Sourcing Suite uses the same package as that of Ariba Network.
• Create content packages for the value mappings for SAP Ariba solutions. Add values to the value
mapping artifact and deploy. There is only one value mapping package for Ariba Network and SAP Ariba
solutions.
• Add user credentials for SAP S/4HANA and SAP Ariba Cloud Integration Gateway.

Value mapping package

This section describes the content that SAP Ariba provides in the value mapping package, Value Mapping
for SAP ERP and S/4 HANA with Cloud Integration Gateway. The package contains an XML file containing
fields that you can configure with the required values. The value mapping package has two sets of agency
values, one set stores the values for outbound transactions and the other for outbound transactions. After
you import the Value Mapping for SAP ERP and S/4 HANA with Cloud Integration Gateway package, you
can configure the values through the user interface.
The following table lists the fields that you map between SAP S/4HANA and Ariba Network or SAP Ariba
solutions. You must specify the required values for each of these fields.

Outbound transactions from SAP Integration Suite to Ariba Network or an SAP Ariba solution:
Agency Identifier Description

ACIG Solution IESOP

ACIG Address https://<CIG_URL>/cxf/receiveS4SOAP

ACIG CIG Credentials Enter the P user ID for your SAP Ariba
solution.

ACIG Solution Enter the address for the master data for
your SAP Ariba solution.

Inbound transactions from SAP Integration Suite to SAP S/4HANA:

Agency Identifier Description

S4HANA BusinessSystemID Maintain the SAP S/4HANA business

system ID.
For example, ABCLNT100

S4HANA Credentials Enter the login credentials of your SAP

S/4HANA system.

S4HANA ClientID Enter the client ID of your SAP S/4HANA

system.

S4HANA CCLocationID Enter the CCLocationID of your SAP

Cloud Connector.

How to set up SAP Integration Suite to connect with the SAP Ariba solutions
Context

S/4HANA and SAP Ariba Cloud Integration Gateway. Enter username and password to connect. Then,
deploy the user credentials.
Procedure
1. Logon to the private tenant.
2. Create the package and import the artifacts of type Integration Flow on your private tenant. You can
choose the following packages:
− Choose the Odata Pass Through Content for Ariba Guided Buying.zip package if you are using 2NV or
3EN integration scenarios.
− Choose the following packages if you are using any other integration scenarios:
o For outbound transactions: SOAP Outbound Passthrough content for S4HANA API.zip
o For inbound transactions: SOAP Inbound Pass Through Content for Ariba for S4HANA API.zip
3. Import the artifacts of type Value Mapping on your private tenant and choose the value map for the
AribaNetwork Scenario.zip package.
4. Maintain the following values for the inbound and outbound data transactions:

Outbound transactions:
− Choose the agency ACIG with the identifier Solution and enter the value IESOP. Enter a name for the
SAP Ariba solution you use. If you use Ariba Network, enter Network in the Solution text box. If you

 use SAP Ariba Buying (with guided buying capability enabled) or SAP Ariba Strategic Sourcing Suite,
enter Apps.
o Choose the agency ACIG with the identifier Address and enter the address for the SAP Ariba
Cloud Integration Gateway (https://<CIG_URL>/cxf/receiveS4SOAP) in the CIG Address text box.
This is the address for the document mappings for the transaction data for your SAP Ariba solution.
− Choose the agency ACIG with the identifier CIG Credentials and enter the P user ID for your SAP
Ariba solution for the SAP Ariba Cloud Integration Gateway credentials.
− Choose the agency ACIG with the identifier Solution and enter the address for the master data for
your SAP Ariba solution for the SAP Ariba Cloud Integration Gateway master data.

Inbound transactions
− Choose the agency S4HANA with the identifier BusinessSystemID and enter the business system ID
of your SAP S/4HANA system.
Then, enter the system ID for the SAP Ariba solution you use. If you use Ariba Network, enter

or SAP Ariba Strategic Sourcing Suite, enter Apps.
o Enter the ERP address. This is the address of the SAP Cloud Connector that is set up for your SAP
S/4HANA system.
− Choose the agency S4HANA with the identifier Credentials and enter the login credentials of your
SAP S/4HANA system.
− Choose the agency S4HANA with the identifier ClientID and enter the client ID of your SAP S/4HANA
