Punchout Catalogs

Resource List

Before We Get Started

What is a punchout catalog?

A punchout catalog allows you to submit requisition orders for items at the negotiated contract price. You “punch out” to an external ordering system hosted by the catalog company and then bring the items back into your “cart” in Jaggaer, where you complete and submit a requisition.

Why should I use a punchout catalog?

I usually order from the company website using a P-Card or through Bronco Hub.

We strongly encourage you to use Punchout Catalogs for the suppliers mentioned in this guide rather than purchasing directly from the websites using P-Card. 

Using the Punchout Catalogs:

  • will guarantee that campus users access the correct contract and get contract pricing;
  • does not require reconciliation after the order is placed
  • includes an approval workflow (based on the Standard Approval Workflow Matrix) prior to the creation of a Purchase Order (PO).

Getting Started

Jaggaer Punchout Catalogs include catalogs for the following companies:

Anixter, B&H Photo, Fisher Scientific, Grainger, Henry Schein, Medline, ODP Business Solutions (Office Depot), Staples, The Home Depot, and McKesson.

  • Ordering from Jaggaer Punchout Catalog creates requisitions and POs. 
  • Requisitions through Jaggaer follow the Standard Approval Workflow Matrix.
  • There is no reconciliation process involved with Jaggaer Punchout Catalogs. Funding strings are added/split when the requisition is created.
  • After approval, a system-generated PO is sent to the supplier for order fulfillment.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • does not require reconciliation after the order is placed
  • includes an approval workflow (based on the Standard Approval Workflow Matrix) prior to the creation of a PO

If I have received a quote with “special” discounted pricing, may I use the Jaggaer Punchout requisition process?

No, special pricing will not be reflected when shopping Jaggaer Punchout Catalog; please complete a standard requisition in Bronco Hub and attach your quote with the “special” pricing.

What is the status of my requisition?

Check the status of your requisition by accessing My Requisitions on the Jaggaer Dashboard. View the approval workflow on the right side of the requisition. Visit the View Submitted Order Status and Approval Workflow job aid for more details.

I am in the Approval Workflow with two roles (ex. as Manager and Level 1-Funding Source Person) on a requisition. Will I have to approve this transaction twice?

Yes. In the approval workflow in Bronco Hub, you only need to approve requisitions once, even if you appear at multiple levels of the workflow. This is not true in Jaggaer.

Jaggaer will require you to approve at each level of the approval process where you are listed. A Jaggaer Approval Tips and Tricks job aid will be provided in the near future that will provide ways to approve efficiently.

Best Practices

What are best practices for submitting a Purchase Requisition?

Requesters:

  •  Ensure there is funding available for the purchase. 
  • Verify the funding string(s) are correct prior to submitting the requisition. 
  • Attach any internal documents to the internal attachments area in the header of the catalog requisition. 
  • Project Funded Requisitions: If entering a Project number in the funding segment string of a requisition, you must also enter the Task number. (Both the Project and Task numbers default to a series of zeros). Visit the Create a Jaggaer Punchout Catalog job aid for details.

Approvers:

  • Confirm items are acceptable prior to approving the requisition.
