ARIBA NETWORK FEES FOR SUPPLIERS WITH HIGH USAGE
STATUS

Once you cross the document and transaction volume thresholds described
above in at least one customer relationship annually, you will be enrolled in a
paid subscription and will be required to pay fees. There are two components to
the supplier fee schedule for Ariba Network Fulfill: Orders and Invoices:
•• Transaction fees, which are determined based on the document type and
financial volume you transact annually with all customers through Ariba Network
•• Subscription fees, which are determined based on the number of documents
you transact annually with all customers, as well as your technology usage3

Relationships Not Containing Service Entry Sheets

Transaction fees are calculated as a small percentage (0.155%) of your transaction
volume for a given customer relationship. Transaction volume is calculated as the
total financial value (in the applicable currency) of all non-PO invoices plus the total
financial value of all POs (excluding canceled orders) or all invoices generated from
a PO, whichever is greater.

Relationships Containing Service Entry Sheets

Transaction fees are calculated as a small percentage (0.35%) of your transaction
volume for a given customer relationship. Transaction volume is calculated as the
total financial value (in the applicable currency) of all non-PO invoices plus the total
financial value of all POs (excluding canceled orders) or all invoices generated from
a PO, or all service entry sheets generated from a PO, whichever is greater.

Transaction fee caps are also included to limit fees paid on high-value trans-
actions and customer relationships. Table 2 lists the annual buyer-seller
relationship caps for each currency supported by Ariba Network.

Subscription fees
Subscription levels and fees are determined based on the number of documents you
transact annually as well as your technology usage.4 There are four paid subscription
levels, each offering a set of features that increases in value as you move to a higher
level. For more information on subscription features, please see
www.ariba.com/ariba-network/ariba-network-for-suppliers/accounts-and-pricing

3. Per any one customer relationship per year. All supplier customers that moved from Quadrem Network to Ariba Network
beginning in 2017 will receive a new relationship cap that places a limit on the annual network fees. SAP Ariba will continue to
provide account management and transition support services to these same customers in 2019. In 2019, this relationship
cap will be USD 100,000.
4. For first-time chargeable suppliers, Ariba Network totals your historical monthly document transaction counts across all
customer relationships, up to three months if available, and annualizes that amount to determine your subscription level
and fee for the next year. The date when this occurs becomes your master anniversary date. Your subscription level is
then reevaluated each year on your master anniversary date based on your document transaction counts during the
previous 12 months.
