Are your supplier data not (always) consistent between Ivalua and SAP ? Are you blocking suppliers in Ivalua, yet orders are still being placed in the SAP system?
Each system's data model is different and unique, which can lead to confusion and a loss of data quality during the integration process. Currently, Ivalua provides standard interfaces for integration with the SAP system, based on the IDOC structure. Particularly in the area of change management, this requires numerous extensions and adjustments on both the Ivalua and SAP systems. Because the information exchange between Ivalua and SAP is not seamless, the standard interfaces are not (always) sufficient to meet the requirements of procurement and an integrated process landscape.

Procurement Straight Talk: Why procurement is seen as a bottleneck and why it rarely is one
Procurement is often seen as a bottleneck in many companies because delays become apparent there, even though they usually originate in earlier stages due to late involvement. The first article in our series "Purchasing Made Plain" shows how this prejudice affects both operational and strategic procurement and what value a company misses out on when it views procurement merely as a process operator. You will also learn how early involvement and the right key performance indicators (KPIs) can transform procurement into a proactive partner.

How to rethink the assumption that better visibility leads to better procurement decisions
This article explains why real-time transparency alone does not improve procurement decisions and shows how common risk thresholds, the visualization of supply chain dependencies, and predefined decision paths help companies reduce uncertainty and react faster.
