Punch Out system

What is it ? 

Punch Out is a system of intercommunication between a company’s computer applications and its supplier.

With this system, companies can :

  • access to their suppliers’ sites, where the terms and conditions of the negotiated contracts apply (prices, shipping costs, etc.).
  • repatriate purchase requisitions to their own validation environment (SRM or ERP).

How does it work?

Firstly, your customers’ purchasing departments have access to your entire product catalogue, with prices at the conditions negotiated between your company and your customers. Then, buyers fill their baskets according to their needs (when all items are selected, they can view and control their baskets).

Once validated on your merchant site, the basket is automatically transferred to your customer’s ERP or SRM, where all the hierarchical and accounting validation processes are already in place. All information relating to the items are kept (wording, unit price, size, etc.). As far as your customer is concerned, he can submit his purchases to his management. Once the payment has been validated, the order is automatically generated on your merchant site.

To sum up, Punch Out allows you to dematerialize exchanges and commercial transactions between a supplier and a company, thus facilitating the work of companies’ purchasing departments.
