Supplier master data refers to basic information about suppliers that is stored and managed in a company.
We use your master data stored with us: such as contact details, bank details, address, company data, etc. for our cooperation with you as our valued supplier and therefore play a key role for Daimler Truck AG. Good master data ensures efficient procurement processes and minimizes risks in terms of delivery delays, quality problems or financial uncertainties. If the master data is not correct, this can have an impact on many processes, from procurement up to timely payment.
Every Daimler Truck AG supplier who already has a supplier number can log in to our Supplier Portal https://supplier.daimlertruck.com/portal/de and after registering they can manage their own master data in the SDB-T: (Supplier Database Truck) application. If you do not have a portal user, the link for the change process must be sent to you by an internal employee via the standard functionality of the SDB-T.
Registration Help: https://supplier.daimlertruck.com/docs/DOC-1321
Please note that the suppliers of Mercedes Benz Cars and Daimler Truck AG have separate supplier portals.
The Supplier Database Truck (SDB-T) is a central, web-based tool for managing supplier master data. The SDB-T is a workflow-based master data creation and modification tool that is equipped with several approval levels as well as automated checks. Only after the changes have been procedurally requested can they be approved by our employees and thus receive their application and validity.
In principle, you can also share your data with your contact person/purchaser with us in the company. If you have any questions about your supplier master data, please contact us at the following address: LN-Stammdaten@mercedes-benz.com.
Unfortunately, not. We recommend that you use the application and thus have full control over your master data. Each requested change/creation is assigned a process number (Txxx) in the SDB-T. By specifying the process number, you can monitor the status of the process in the SDBT. Your requested changes must first be reviewed by our master data team before they are valid.
Yes, if the bank details stored with us in the SDB-T differ from the bank details on the invoice, the invoice will not be paid. Therefore, please start a change process in the SDB-T immediately and update your bank details. Please do not forget to upload the documents that can prove the change (tab Attachments) so that the change request can be checked (e.g., letterhead - where company name, address, bank details are visible or confirmation from the bank, or a current invoice to us).
In this case, please contact your contact person/purchaser, who can send you a one-time link for the change in the SDBT.
It is not possible to send the documents, while the process was already addressed to us. Alternatively, you can send the documents to: LN-Stammdaten@mercedes-benz.com but always with the subject: T-Process number and your supplier number.
Suppliers can check the process status in the SDB-T at any time. In the History and Approvals tab, you can view the important information during the process and the process status itself.
The maintenance of the bank data in the SDB-T by the supplier itself ensures the accuracy of the bank information. In addition, the standardized cyber crime process takes place, in which the stored information is checked again via a second communication channel. Since this is based on feedback and written confirmation from suppliers, this review may take longer. This is then stored as a comment in the corresponding T-process.
Help documents can be found directly in the SDB-T application in the upper right corner -> the orange Help button.
