B2B Punchout

Many of our customers now access the Sigma-Aldrich website through an internal procurement application (Ariba, SciQuest, etc.). Most of the functionality on the site is identical to that experience by users that access the site directly. The shopping cart, however, does function a bit differently.

How to create an order using Punchout:

1. Click on "Create a Quick Order" on the "Order Center" page.
2. Your Cart is now displayed with a number of empty lines. Type in the product number for each product you wish to order in the fields provided. (Disregard punctuation marks when entering product numbers; i.e. "27,856-4" should be entered as "278564" etc.) Click on the "Get/Confirm Pack Sizes" link.
3. Your Cart will be redisplayed with a product description for each line and dropdown list of package sizes and prices. If the product is only sold in one package size, it will automatically be selected and no dropdown will appear.
4. Select the appropriate package size from the dropdown list, enter the Quantity desired if other than "1", and click the "Get/Confirm Pack Sizes" link. NOTE: The Quantity field will always populate with a default of 1.
5. Your Cart will be redisplayed again with pricing and availability for the items you've entered.
6. Once all items are validated the “Checkout” button will appear below all the items. Clicking on this button reformats all the information in your cart and returns it (and the user experience) to your internal procurement system.
