What are the benefits of using the SAP Ariba suite integration?

SAP Ariba suite integration provides enhanced connectivity between modules such asContract Management,Sourcing,Buying, andInvoicing. Key benefits include:

Integration between contract workspaces and Contract Compliance, ensuring that terms and pricing in contracts automatically govern transactions (Answer A).

Consolidated data maintenance, where common data (such as suppliers, users, and commodity codes) can be managed across systems, reducing duplication and increasing consistency (Answer D).

Shipping details are not typically integrated through contract functionality, and while SAP supports hybrid deployments, integration between on-premise and on-demand apps is handled at the platform level, not specifically by the suite integration.
