As a trusted supplier of promotional products, our in-house IT team is well-versed in connecting your procurement systems to platforms like Ariba, Jaggaer, BuyerQuest, and Workday.

How Punchout Integration Works
One of the key technologies we utilize is Punchout, which enables seamless integration between your procurement system and our B2B store. Here’s a step-by-step look at how Punchout works:
- User Initiates Punchout: The buyer starts within their procurement system (Ariba, Jaggaer, Workday, etc.) and selects our store through the Punchout catalog interface.
- Authentication and Access: The system authenticates the user and redirects them to our store, where they can browse products, view real-time inventory, and add items to their cart as if they were directly on our site.
- Cart Transfer: Once the buyer finalizes their selection, the cart details (products, quantities, and pricing) are transferred back to their procurement system.
- Purchase Order Creation: The procurement system automatically generates a purchase order using the items selected, which is then submitted through your standard approval and ordering workflow.
- Order Confirmation and Fulfillment: Once the order is approved, we receive the purchase order, process it, and send order confirmations and shipment updates, ensuring a smooth end-to-end experience.
Punchout streamlines the entire procurement process, enabling buyers to access our store directly from their procurement platform while maintaining control over their internal workflows and approvals.
Benefits of Procurement Platforms for Buyers
Procurement platforms like Ariba, Jaggaer, BuyerQuest, and Workday bring several advantages to the table, empowering businesses to operate more efficiently:
- Automated Workflows: Procurement platforms automate repetitive tasks like order creation, invoicing, and reporting, allowing teams to focus on higher-value activities.
- Cost Control: Buyers can easily compare supplier prices, manage contracts, and leverage bulk ordering features to save on costs.
- Compliance Assurance: Built-in compliance tools ensure that all purchases align with internal procurement policies and regulatory requirements.
- Enhanced Supplier Management: With a centralized platform, businesses can easily manage supplier relationships, ensuring transparency and better collaboration.
- Real-Time Analytics: Procurement platforms provide detailed reports and data insights, enabling businesses to make informed decisions about purchasing, inventory, and supplier performance.
Level-2 Catalogs: Maximizing Product Visibility and Ease of Purchase
We also specialize in integrating Level-2 catalogs within these procurement platforms. This powerful feature enhances the buyer’s experience and increases product visibility. Please note this feature is subjective to each platform.
- The item-level search capabilities in Level-2 enable buyers to use more granular details to find items faster through the punchout system. Level-2 catalogs also support detailed descriptions, attribute-level keywords, refinement support, and images, all of which help users find needed items quickly and easily, translating to higher sales for you.
- Favorites and Kits: Buyers can easily save their favorite products or group multiple items into kits for simplified repeat purchases. This feature reduces the time spent on future orders, boosting buyer satisfaction and operational efficiency.
Automated Invoicing for Increased Efficiency

By automating invoicing processes within systems like Ariba and Jaggaer, we reduce manual entry errors and ensure timely payment. This speeds up your financial workflows, helps improve cash flow, and reduces administrative overhead.
