SAP punchout for suppliers

[Former Member]

One of my client(the buyer) requires me to create a web punchout catalogue so he can get quote, order directly from his SAP application.

Where do i find the documentation to implement this?

I did implement punchout with ariba supplier network, passing data in cXML, does SAP use cXML standard as well?

Is there a test environment that i can test the punchout site?

Thanks

Tony

Did you figure this out? I'm in a similar situation a customer wants to connect their SAP to my online hardware store. Thanks!

I am a supplier working on a project to integrate my punchout catalogue with my client's SRM procurement system.

- Where can I find technical information on OCI punchout in general?
- Where can I find documentation on the PurchaseOrderRequest SAP-XML document (eg. a description of the xml tags)?
- Specifically I would like to know how the XML tags in the PurchaseOrderRequest relate back to the OCIReturnFromCatalog form, ie., Is it possible to match up a PurchaseOrderRequest with the shopping trolley data that I previously sent back to the SRM system?

Hi ,

Can any body give me some links to start punch-out  in SAP

[Former Member]

Hi Tony,

You can find more information under SRM section (SAP Community Network Forums » SAP Solutions » SRM - General ).

__

You have to maintain a catalog information in EBP via SRM IMG> SRM server>master data--> Define External Web Services (Catalogs, Vendor Lists etc.).

and this catalog id must be defined in CAT attribute in PPOMA_BBP.

It must be OCI complaint catalog.

Hi Vasu,

I read the link that you sent me.

As i am a supplier, i want to do a supplier catalogue, which is a website that buyer can do the shopping cart on my website then pass the shopping cart details back to SAP on buyer's side. Is that true to say i need a procument catalog and this catalogue need to comply with OCI standard?

As i am not using SAP, is there a way for me to test if my supplier catalogue is working fine with SAP.

eg a developer environment

Hi Tony,

Right , you need a Procurement Catalog and you can test it in SAP Development system and as i am aware Supplier catalog/Procurement catalog works fine in SAP.
