Administration
Where do users go to manage parameters in SAP Ariba?
A. Home > Admin > Manage Parameters
B. Home > Administration > Site Manager
C. Manage > Core Administration > Site Manager > Data Import/Export
D. Manage > Core Administration > Parameters
Explanation:
Why D is correct: To access system parameters, an administrator must navigate to the Core Administration area of the site. This is where high-level site configuration takes place. Under the Parameters workspace, administrators can search for, view, and (depending on the parameter type) modify "Self-Service Parameters." These are settings that customers can change without requiring a Service Request (SR) to SAP Ariba Support.
Why the Other Options are Incorrect
A & B. Home > Admin / Administration:
These paths do not reflect the standard SAP Ariba navigation menu. The administrative entry point is located under the Manage toggle in the top-right dashboard, not the "Home" tab.
C. Manage > Core Administration > Site Manager > Data Import/Export:
While this is a valid path for managing master data (like Users, Suppliers, or Accounting codes) via CSV files, it is not used for managing system parameters. Parameters are configuration settings, not transactional or master data.

Which of the following applies to invoice exception types in SAP Ariba Procurement?
A. Exceptions occur when invoice data doesn't match the PO, contract, or receipt.
B. Exceptions only apply to header-level data.
C. Custom exception types cannot be created.
D. Exceptions only occur when invoices are submitted by suppliers.
Explanation:
Why A is correct:
Invoice exceptions are triggered by the system during the Reconciliation phase. When an invoice is loaded into SAP Ariba, the system performs an automated "three-way match" (or two-way match). It compares the line items, quantities, and prices on the Invoice against the Purchase Order, the Contract terms, or the Receipts (goods receipts). If any data falls outside the pre-configured tolerances (e.g., the price is higher than the PO price or the tax is miscalculated), an exception is generated for a human agent to review.
Why the Other Options are Incorrect
B. Exceptions only apply to header-level data:
This is incorrect. Most critical exceptions occur at the line-item level, such as "PO Price Variance" or "Quantity Mismatch." While header-level exceptions exist (like "Bank Account Mismatch"), the system validates both levels thoroughly.
C. Custom exception types cannot be created:
This is false. While SAP Ariba provides a robust set of standard exception types (e.g., Under Tax Variance, PO Price Variance), administrators can indeed create Custom Exception Types to meet specific business requirements or unique local tax laws.
D. Exceptions only occur when invoices are submitted by suppliers:
This is incorrect. Exceptions are generated regardless of the source. Whether an invoice is submitted by a supplier via the Ariba Network, entered manually by an Internal User (Paper Invoice), or sent via an ERP integration, it must still pass through the reconciliation engine and will trigger exceptions if data is inconsistent.
