You asked for it, now it's here. PunchCommerce has recently become available as a transparent cXML gateway for your e-commerce platform.

In addition to the user interface and the export of customer data, we have also been working on the possibility of a cXML PunchOut gateway in the last few weeks. With this mode you can use the punch out of your e-commerce infrastructure without having to deal with the details of the cXML protocol.

Transparent cXML gateway: your advantages

With PunchCommerce we enable you to apply and use the data exchange formats cXML and OCI through a plugin. This allows you to work with your customers in collaboration with both SAP OCI and ARIBA cXML. Additional interfaces and extensions for Shopware are no longer required. You benefit from our inexpensive and simple solution and can save yourself a lengthy conversion and/or training in new systems.

cXML: How it works

In your online shop, your customer can put the desired products in the shopping cart and fill and order it according to his ideas. If the customer has ordered, his shopping cart is recorded in PunchCommerce together with the previously assigned identifiers. The system validates the shopping cart and sends it to your procurement system. All you have to do is process and send the incoming order.

Shopware 5 and 6: Plugins are adjusted accordingly

The new version 1.1.0 of our PunchCommerce plugin for Shopware 6 is already available in the Shopware store. This plugin supports the cXML gateway PunchOut via PunchCommerce. Of course, we will also expand our plugins for Shopware 5 accordingly. This gives you the opportunity to use this PunchCommerce extension for both Shopware 5 and 6. A free composer bundle for PHP development is also available for developers. If you have any questions, please contact us. You can find the contact details below.

Your advantages:

  • With PunchCommerce you cover both cXML and OCI
  • No additional interfaces are required for Shopware
  • Simple application
  • Inexpensive solution
