Procurement in Event Mgmt compared to 'Purchase order process' in SNC

[Former Member]

I am just comparing the functionality available for the typical 'procure to pay' scenario in SAP Event Management with the functionality available for the typical 'purchase order process' in SAP SNC supplier collaboration.

Am I right in saying that there is overlapping functionality here, in that in both situations a supplier can enter details about a PO (eg confirmation, ASN qty) via the web, resulting in alerts being generated?

What are the pros/cons of using EM or SNC here?

Thanks for any advice on this...

I'm not familiar with SNC but there is a standard scenario in EM for SNC available. I would say they complement each other. With EM you can configure and monitor arbitrary events. I don't think this is available in SNC. Maybe in alerting there is some small overlap.

Best regards,
