Explanation

Integrating SAP Ariba with SAP S/4HANA Cloud is fundamentally about procurement and supplier-side processes, which is why B, C, and D are correct: purchase orders created in S/4HANA can be transmitted to suppliers via the Ariba Network (B); purchase requisitions in S/4HANA can trigger sourcing events in Ariba to identify and engage suppliers (C); and Ariba's Dynamic Discounting feature allows buyers to propose early payment discount terms to suppliers (D).

A and E are wrong because they describe customer-facing, sales-side activities (transferring sales orders and promotion discounts to customers). SAP Ariba is a procurement platform - it manages the buy side of the business and supplier relationships, not outbound sales to customers. Those scenarios belong to SAP SD or SAP Sales Cloud.

Memory tip: Think of Ariba as an "AP tool" - Accounts Payable and Procurement. Every correct answer involves your suppliers and buying activity. If an answer mentions customers or sales, it's out of scope for Ariba.
