Overview
We’ve collaborated with Amazon Business to build cXML PunchOut support using the power of the Now platform.
Stave products are the first to connect your PunchOut enabled vendors to ServiceNow and automate your purchasing processes.
Amazon Business PunchOut
Stave connects your Amazon Business product catalog to your organization using our ServiceNow powered procure-to-pay solution.
Let your employees browse Amazon Business and submit a purchase request for what they need to do their work.
The purchase request is sent back to Stave where we assign workflows with configurable approvals. Once approved, convert the purchase request to a purchase order and Stave will automate the ordering and invoicing with Amazon using our PunchOut integration.
Save time, ensure traceability, and track your automated spending all through Stave procurement products.
General cXML PunchOut
Amazon Business is our first quick connect vendor but our integration works with any cXML PunchOut enabled vendor.
If your organization uses a vendor today that offers cXML PunchOut services, contact us to learn more about how we can connect and automate your procurement with PunchOut.
How does cXML PunchOut work with Stave products on ServiceNow?
There are four key components of the PunchOut process.
- Stave stores the data needed to connect your authenticated users to Amazon or another PunchOut vendor. When the vendor is selected the user is moved to the vendors website and logged in automatically using the users credentials.
- The user browses the vendor catalog, adds items they need to a cart, then submits the purchase request back to Stave through ServiceNow.
- The information is then managed by Stave’s procurement products.
- Purchase orders are ordered through Stave where we create a cXML file in ServiceNow then send the file to the vendor (in this case Amazon) to confirm the order. Once this is done, the vendor/Amazon will send invoice and shipping information back to Stave Procure through ServiceNow.
