Peppol BIS Punch Out supports a procurement process in which a buyer accesses a supplier’s web shop, configures items and returns a structured shopping cart to the buyer’s procurement system. The cart itself is not the purchase order. After approval, the buyer’s system creates and sends an order through the applicable ordering process.
The model allows B2B e-commerce transactions without using, for example, online payment gateways and on-site checkout solutions. The message can also be used as a flexible comparison tool to compare products or services from different suppliers.
BIS Punch Out is based on the European Interoperability Framework 2.0 and supports B2B and B2G transactions.
The message uses OASIS UBL 2.1 and ISO/IEC 19757-3 Schematron to automate document validation.
