Why You Need SupplierPORTAL
Working with suppliers presents unique challenges and opportunities for growth — especially when you’re trying to manage everything manually. The right supplier collaboration software can simplify things significantly by eliminating pain points.
Inconsistent Communication
Communication is pivotal for multi-vendor collaboration. However, in the shipping industry, it is often one of the first things to crumble. SupplierPORTAL eliminates many communication problems by automating key aspects, such as shipping notifications, purchase orders, and tracking updates, to ensure consistent communication.
Data Issues
When you manually track collaborator data or enter it into your supply chain collaboration platform, data can be inconsistent, fractured, or siloed, leading to frustration. When you work with SupplierPORTAL, it automates your data chain. View all relevant data in one place, without silos or manual entry, for optimal collaboration.
Slow, Complex Processes
If you’re still working with a manual SAP supplier portal or managing all your suppliers individually, you’ve likely experienced frustrations related to speed and complexity. SupplierPORTAL automates many manual processes and integrates all management aspects into a single platform, simplifying processes and expediting shipping.
What Is SupplierPORTAL, the Supplier Collaboration Software?
Our web portal solution, SupplierPORTAL, enables suppliers to review assigned purchases using a traditional or mobile-based web browser. This approach provides you with efficient and low-effort visibility for all inbound shipments.
This SAP supplier portal has real-time SAP interaction, allowing you to keep purchase orders up to date with incoming supplier information. This approach streamlines your process flow and makes tracking shipping events easy. Further enhance collaborations by implementing cost-effective, standardized purchase orders with your suppliers.
SAP P.O. Creation
Easily create purchase orders in SAP before sending them off to suppliers. Use the tools available with your supplier portal software to set up purchase orders that establish your agreed-upon conditions and request the supplies you need. This solution is a fast and convenient way to manage order requests and keep records of your transactions with suppliers.
Shipping Notification
Set notifications to let you know when the Inbound Delivery is created. With automatic shipping notification settings, you can conveniently track the delivery status, providing more visibility into the entire shipping process. Notifications keep you up to date with real-time data without taking your focus away from other tasks to track down information on the progress of deliveries.
Input Shipment Details
Your supplier can enter a shipment's estimated delivery date, freight weight, and dimensions. These crucial shipment details can equip you to manage deliveries more efficiently and ensure they reach their destinations on schedule. Having access to this data can also help you maximize efficiency, as you'll have records readily available to reference for future planning cycles. Since you and your suppliers can easily access this essential information, the portal can also facilitate supplier relationship management.
Tracking and Proof of Delivery
Tracking and proof of delivery can be performed in Inbound Delivery (VL33N). Confirm a shipment's delivery status with your ERP supplier solution and handle a range of other tasks you need to accomplish, all at the same time. Seamless, accessible tracking capabilities enable you to monitor deliveries efficiently and provide proof of delivery for your records.
Why Choose SupplierPORTAL Over Other Supplier Communication Platforms?
SupplierPORTAL, our proprietary supplier collaboration platform, offers some significant benefits when compared to competitors, including:
- Portable, real-time access: While most supplier communication platforms are only available from your company’s computer network, SupplierPORTAL is accessible from both desktop and mobile browsers, enabling you to connect with suppliers on the go.
- Improved efficiency: Since our web portal solution offers real-time access to shipment details and practices instant data retrieval, the shipping process becomes more efficient.
- Easier use and training: An intuitive HTML5 user interface makes SupplierPORTAL easier to use and ensures you don’t have to spend extended periods training your team on how to use the software.
- Standardized communication process: Utilizing ShipERP’s supplier portal enables you to standardize your communication process, improving collaboration, enhancing visibility, and streamlining the entire shipping process.
These benefits, and others like them, make SupplierPORTAL a better option than complex collaboration and communication platforms.

What’s nice about ShipERP is that it is written completely in ABAP, the native programming language for SAP. Core to its technology is the use of web services within SAP to directly communicate and transact business with the major carriers that support this technology. By following Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) methodology it enables the ShipERP application to integrate seamlessly with carriers and provide real-time processing of shipments and tracking.
If a carrier does not support a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) the ShipERP product can also utilize XML via HTTP POST or EDI processing to communicate with the carriers. Other options for integration include tracking number generation using carrier algorithms or pre-generated tracking numbers loaded into ShipERP. Whatever the method of integration is, ShipERP can support it.
