Dear Community,

 

Amazon Business offer an ERP intergration (they call it punchout) which allow to intergrate Amazon Business function to ERP. That means that user log in to IFS Could, have an Link/Icon which navigate to Amazon Business where user can purchase specific products with business account. Does somebody have experience with that punchout/integration of Amazon Business?

Thanks for feedback.

regards 

Sebastian

Hi Sebastian!

I cannot help with any specific information about Amazon Business, but in IFS Cloud we have support for punchout catalogs based on the OCI and cXML standards. We have not verified it specifically with Amazon Business though. 

How a normal punchout solution works is that you navigate from your procurement system (in this case IFS) to the suppliers webshop, you select products from their catalog and then instead of the normal check out, the shopping cart is transferred to IFS generating purchase requisitions is IFS. At this stage no order is created on the suppliers side. The requisition is then processed as any other requisition including authorizations and then orders are sent through the regular channels.

Hope this information was useful.
