Extremely large attachments can cause a system error to occur. In this case, try zipping or revising (reducing) the attachment, or contact your Ariba Buyer system administrator.

1. Enter comments:
• For the entire purchase order (PO), enter comments in the Comments box.

   Ariba Supplier Network (Ariba SN) imposes a file size limit on POs. If a PO you create in Ariba Buyer exceeds the file size limit (including comments and attachments) the PO is sent without attachments. You are notified by email and the History tab for the PO is updated. You can send the attachments by email or another method (outside of Ariba Buyer). You can also withdraw the original request, delete the attachment and instead include a zipped or revised (smaller) version, and resubmit the request.

3. Click Next to go to the next step in the process, or Summary to go to the Summary screen where you can review and submit (save) the order.
