- You need have a supplier ANID on SAP Business Network aka Ariba Network
- Have a trading relationship with the buyer
- If you don't have trading relation, you need to mention AN01000000001 as buyer ANID, and the catalog you upload will be a Public Catalog, i.e. visible to all buyers. In this case, Ariba Network has an upper limit of 3 i.e. you can only upload 3 catalogs. Once a trading relationship is created, there is no upper limit.
