Shopware 5 plugin

Our free extension for Shopware 5 allows you to transfer products to PunchCommerce. The plugin also enables the use of our OCI or cXML gateway punch-out in connection with your Shopware online shop.

Transfer of products from Shopware

To transfer products from your Shopware installation, first load the plugin via the Shopware Store. Create a customer in PunchCommerce and select "API" as the product source.

1. Now start the PunchCommerce app via the Customers menu item in your Shopware administration
2. Create a new customer and configure the name, API key, customer group, currency and the product stream from which the products should be obtained
3. Switch to the Products tab and click on the "Rescan products" button and then on "Synchronize"
4. The products are now submitted to PunchCommerce

Note Product transfer is only available for customers not using gateway mode. A short video showing the upload process can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4mniXOii3Ak

Use of the gateway mode with your own Shopware online shop

After installing the Shopware plugin, you will find the new attribute "Puchout-Identity" on every customer. Enter the customer ID defined in PunchCommerce here. Configure the URL of your online shop as the entry point according to the following scheme:

https://<ihre-domain>.<tld>/punchcommerce/authenticate

Definition of shipping costs when using the OCI punchout

In order to be able to transfer shipping costs as part of the OCI PunchOut, a corresponding shipping method must be defined within the Shopware 5 backend. In order for this shipping method to be recognized correctly, the setting “Shipping method type: Surcharge shipping rule (as a separate item)” must be selected.

The transfer of shipping costs to PunchCommerce then looks as follows:

Mapping of Customfields

A mapping for custom fields can be defined within the plugin configuration via the Shopware 5 backend. The custom fields are filled out according to the configuration made and transferred to the PunchCommerce gateway together with the shopping cart.
