What exactly is punchOut?
PunchOut is a technology that connects a buyer’s eProcurement system with a supplier’s eCommerce platform. This integration allows buyers to access real-time product catalogs, pricing, and availability directly within their procurement system. It streamlines the purchasing process, enabling seamless transactions without the need to leave their procurement platform. Essentially, it bridges the gap between procurement systems and eCommerce sites for a smoother, more efficient buying experience.
Setup Request
Often referred to as a login request, this is sent by a procurement application to inform your shop that a user is ready to log in and begin shopping.
Order Message
After logging in, customer shops as they normally would. Once done, the cart and its contents are sent back to the procurement system in what’s called a PunchOut Order Message.
Order Request
Once the shopping cart is approved in the procurement system, a PunchOut Order Request is created and sent to your online shop for processing.
Confirmation
An eConfirmation, though seldom requested, is an optional message sent to procurement to verify that the order has been received and is being processed.
Shipping Notice
A shipping notice lets your customer know their order is on its way and may include tracking details if available.
Invoice Request
Once the customer receives the items, an Invoice Request can be issued to facilitate payment for the goods or services, with an option for a credit memo if necessary.
Select the option that best fits your needs.
