Process flow

Step 1

Getting Started

To start the process, the Shell Contracting & Procurement (CP) representative sends the selected supplier an e-mail invite, which contains a registration link. The link will allow the supplier to accept the trading relationship with Shell. The intent is to prepare the supplier for transacting electronically via the SAP Ariba Network.

Step 2

Creating a standard supplier account on the SAP Ariba Network

The Shell Contracting & Procurement (CP) representative invites the selected supplier via e-mail to create a standard account.

Please note that if you have an existing account and you would like to use it, it's possible to use the invitation link received and select Log-in instead of Sign-up. Be aware that fees are likely to apply if you accept the invitation with your existing enterprise account.

Step 3

Supplier Account Management

Implementing SAP Ariba requires dedication on both Shell and the supplier side. To ensure a smooth transition, it is key for the supplier to appoint, as early as possible, a SAP Ariba Administrator and decide on the type of account required. We recommend managing the accounts early on to avoid any delays in the process. Also, when the invitation from Shell arrives, this step in the process ensures that an account is not created by someone other than your appointed Administrator.

For more information on how to manage multiple accounts and/or account hierarchy you can view a video or contact for direct assistance.

Step 4

Completing your account registration and configuration to start transacting

The ready to transact criteria for the standard account are the following:

Ariba Network supplier account created
Ariba Terms & Conditions & Trading Relationship accepted with Shell in supplier鈥檚 account
PO routing, invoice routing and notifications set-up in supplier鈥檚 account
Bank details and remittance address completed in supplier鈥檚 account
Legal Profile (GST ID) configured in supplier鈥檚 account (Singapore suppliers only)

Step 5

Transitioning and notification of go-live transactions

When all the ready to transact criteria have been fulfilled, you will receive an e-mail notification of when your account will go live with Shell and you can begin to transact electronically. For detailed information on how the transacting process on Ariba Network looks like, please refer to our .

Step 6

Transacting with Shell

Both the Shell Contracting & Procurement (CP) representative and the supplier will cooperate through all the process steps above, in order to transact seamlessly on the SAP Ariba Network.
