Which details can be found within a customer’s data dictionary in Ariba P2P?

The customer’s data dictionary in Ariba P2P primarily contains information related to the data structures and definitions that are relevant within the procurement process. Flex Master Data types are a core element of this, as they refer to the customizable data fields that organizations can create to suit their unique procurement needs. This allows businesses to tailor their data management to different categories, suppliers, or procurement processes, making it essential for effective data organization and usage in the platform.

On the other hand, discount codes, supplier compliance metrics, and purchase history, while important for procurement operations, do not reside in the data dictionary. Discount codes relate more to pricing strategies, supplier compliance metrics focus on performance assessments based on various criteria, and purchase history pertains to transactional records. These elements are more about transactional activity and supplier management rather than the structural definitions found in the data dictionary itself.
