What is the cXML Punchout Catalog Standard?

The cXML Punchout catalog standard (Commerce eXtensible Markup Language) is a widely adopted protocol that enables seamless communication between a buyer’s procurement system and a supplier’s eCommerce platform. It allows the buyer to access real-time product data, pricing, and availability directly within their procurement application, then transfer the shopping cart back for approval and purchase order creation.

By using cXML, businesses ensure secure, structured data exchange and smooth interoperability across various ERP and eProcurement systems—making it the foundation of most modern B2B punchout integrations.

What is the OCI Punchout Catalog Standard?

The OCI Punchout catalog standard (Open Catalog Interface) is a communication format developed by SAP that connects a buyer’s procurement or ERP system directly to a supplier’s online catalog. Through OCI, buyers can browse products, view contract-specific pricing, and build carts within the supplier’s eCommerce site—then transfer that cart data back into their ERP for purchase order processing. This standardized integration streamlines the procurement workflow, eliminates manual data entry, and ensures accurate, up-to-date product information throughout the buying process.
