cXML-PunchOut with avanta is that easy

Would your customers like to order via procurement platforms such as SAP Ariba, Jaggaer or Onventis and still use all the conveniences of your store? With avanta's cXML PunchOut interface you can seamlessly integrate your webshop into your customers' eProcurement systems.

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.

  1. The customer opens your webshop from their procurement platform (e.g. SAP Ariba, Coupa, Jaggaer).
  2. They see their individual product range, customer-specific prices and availability.
  3. They place products in the shopping cart - everything as usual.
  4. At the end, the shopping cart is automatically transferred back to the customer's platform.
  5. 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
