Our experience with Punchout systems and integrating ERP and procurement tools.

20 December 2019

At Wida Group, we’re doing more and more integrations for our customers, for lots of different systems and we’re getting pretty darn good at it too!

Something that we have now also successfully done and have the know-how, is integrating websites with our customers… customers systems (we will term as the buyer). This may be the buyers own ERP system or as we’ve experienced, a procurement tool the buyer uses.

The buyer may build orders within their system. Their system may hold a number of products from various suppliers. The importance of the system we create, is to supply the product data, stock and catalogue to the buyer’s system on a scheduled basis as well receive the order information once the buyer has sent their order. In various cases of past projects that we’ve completed. Once the order is received from the buyer’s system to our customers website. The order is then pushed through from the website, to our customers ERP/stock management system. There is often a requirement to send back to the buyer confirmation the order has been received/approved.

This type of setup is often referred to as a Punchout system. We have also put together a general diagram for how the flow of this process commonly goes;
