What is cXML-PunchOut?
cXML (Commerce eXtensible Markup Language)-PunchOut is a standardized protocol that was developed specifically for the integration of supplier shops into external procurement platforms.
- The customer opens your webshop from their procurement platform (e.g. SAP Ariba, Coupa, Jaggaer).
- They see their individual product range, customer-specific prices and availability.
- They place products in the shopping cart - everything as usual.
- At the end, the shopping cart is automatically transferred back to the customer's platform.
- The order is completed via the eProcurement platform and transferred to the customer's ERP system.
cXML-PunchOut is supported by many leading eProcurement systems, e.g:
- SAP Ariba, Coupa, onventis, Jaggaer, Oracle Procurement Cloud, Workday
