Step 5: Click Project Manager → Import Legacy Contracts Status to check the status of the load. Step 4: Browse the ZIP file that is required to be imported and click Import Step 3: Click Project Manager → Import Legacy Contracts Step 2: In Ariba, Click Manage → Administration

Step 1: Assemble a ZIP file containing information about the contracts to load.

When importing legacy contracts, one must submit a ZIP file that contains the following CSV files. General instructions on how to import contracts Because of the wide variety of possible current formatting of legacy contracts, SAP Ariba does not supply a tool to explicitly format existing contracts, nor does it provide more than general instructions on converting the specific formats of your contracts to the required format. To upload legacy contracts into Ariba, one must provide information about existing contracts in CSV format. This enables to keep a record of previous contracts and provide a starting point for future contracts. One should use the legacy contract import feature to load existing contracts or legacy contracts from any other contract repository to Ariba. I share my experiences below on the issues faced, methods adopted to resolve issues / restrictions and automation of the migration process. As data migration is part of any implementation, we were tasked with migrating existing contracts to Ariba for Go-Live. I have been recently involved in a Major Business Transformation project for a client who implemented S/4 HANA and SAP Ariba.

While all the above would satisfy the needs of a customer / client requiring a robust contract management solution, there is not much information out there around migration of contracts to Ariba for an implementation.
