iHerb has formed a strategic partnership with SAP Ariba, a leading global procurement platform known for optimizing supply chain processes. Ariba registration is a requirement for all suppliers.
Centralized supplier management supports buyers and vendors in connecting and exchanging information, setting up new relationships, and transacting (processing POs and invoices).
Ariba consists of several modules. iHerb is implementing the Ariba Supplier Lifecycle and Performance (SLP) and Ariba Supply Chain Collaboration (SCC) modules to centralize and standardize the processes of maintaining supplier master data and transacting with said suppliers.
Ariba SLP will be used to onboard new suppliers and maintain supplier master data related to business with iHerb, such as distribution center addresses, contacts, payment and shipping terms, banking, etc. After your business has registered with Ariba, any changes to this data can and will be made via Ariba.
Ariba SCC will be used to manage the processing of POs, invoices, credit memos, and sharing forecasts. Suppliers will be sent a Trading Relationship Request (TRR), which will need to be accepted to transact with iHerb, receive PO quality notifications (overages, damages, etc.), and receive forecasts.
Suppliers who currently transact with iHerb via EDI will continue to do so via our existing EDI infrastructure. We have no plans at this time to move away from SPS Commerce to send POs and receive invoices via EDI.
