Which SAP Fiori app is used in the Sourcing with SAP Ariba Sourcing (4BL) process?

Question

Options

• ACreate Supplier Invoice
• BManage RFQs
• CCreate Purchase Order
• DCompare Supplier Quotations

• A
  3% (1)
• B
  86% (32)
• C
  8% (3)
• D
  3% (1)

Explanation

Manage RFQs (B) is correct because in the SAP Ariba Sourcing integration process (4BL), procurement professionals use this SAP Fiori app to create and manage Requests for Quotation, which are then transferred to SAP Ariba Sourcing where suppliers submit their bids - making it the central touchpoint in this sourcing workflow.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• (A) Create Supplier Invoice belongs to the Accounts Payable process, which comes after goods receipt - far downstream from sourcing.
• (C) Create Purchase Order is used in procurement execution (after a supplier is selected), not during the sourcing/bidding phase.
• (D) Compare Supplier Quotations sounds relevant but is a distractor - the actual quotation comparison in this process occurs within SAP Ariba Sourcing itself, not via this SAP Fiori app.

Memory tip: Think of the 4BL process as "Ask before you buy" - RFQ = Request = Reach out to suppliers first. "Manage RFQs" is the start of the sourcing journey; invoices and POs come later.
