Procurement integration

Uprocurement — Unified Procurement

Uprocurement is Uniqcli's unified procurement program: we connect our catalog, ordering, and invoicing to the purchasing system your organization already runs — so requisitions, approvals, and POs stay in your workflow while the catalog stays current on ours.

Overview

Your purchasing system stays the system of record

Past a certain size, an organization does not want another supplier portal — it wants its own requisition, approval and purchase-order workflow to stay exactly where it is, with the supplier's catalog and documents arriving inside it. That is what this program is for. A Uprocurement connection is scoped with your procurement and IT teams, credentialed on both sides, tested in your sandbox and only then turned on: catalog in, orders in, invoices back out, in the formats your platform already speaks. What changes is where the catalog lives. What does not change is who approves the requisition, whose PO number governs the order, or where your audit trail is kept.

Capabilities

What Uprocurement connects

Every Uprocurement connection is scoped and delivered per engagement — there is no self-service sign-up, and nothing goes live until a test transaction has passed in your own sandbox. Naming a purchasing platform describes the connection types Uprocurement supports, not a Uniqcli partnership, certification or marketplace listing.

Catalog variety

PunchOut, flat-file catalogs, curated custom catalogs, and customized landing pages — scoped to the brands and categories your organization buys.

Electronic ordering

Submit orders electronically over HTTPS, SFTP, API and EDI connections, with cXML and x12 850 purchase orders routed straight to our order desk.

Custom reporting

Keep tabs on your procurement with JSON or SFTP reporting feeds covering orders, invoices and shipments.

Formats & methods

We work in cXML, OCI, x12 EDI, CSV, XML and JSON over HTTPS and SFTP. AS2 and VAN connections are available on request.

EDI compatibility

EDI document exchange including 850 (purchase order), 855 (acknowledgment), 856 (advance ship notice) and 810 (invoice).

Platforms

Built for SAP Ariba, SAP OCI, Coupa, Jaggaer, Oracle iProcurement, Workday, and other cXML-capable purchasing platforms.

Onboarding

How a connection goes live

Three steps, in this order, run by a Uniqcli specialist alongside your procurement and IT teams. Every Uprocurement connection is scoped and delivered per engagement — there is no self-service sign-up, and nothing goes live until a test transaction has passed in your own sandbox.

Scope call — your platform, catalog scope, and pricing.
Credential exchange and a test transaction in your sandbox.
Go live — catalog, ordering, and invoicing wired to your workflow.

Boundaries

What a connection does not change

Your platform's own requisition and approval workflow governs the order. A punchout session hands a cart back to your system, where it becomes a requisition and follows the routing your organization already defined; what reaches us is a purchase order your workflow has already approved. We do not approve, reroute or hold requisitions on your behalf, and no Uniqcli account is created for a punchout shopper — the ERP session is the identity for the length of that cart and nothing more.

A purchasing platform never transmits a card number to us, and we never ask it to. Purchase orders are invoiced on approved terms, set up with our finance team during onboarding. P-Card and purchase-card buying is unaffected and stays on the buyer surfaces where it already lives; it is not part of a punchout or EDI connection.

Catalog scope and pricing stay maintained by our team rather than derived by the platform, so a punchout session and a flat-file export carry the same figures on the same day. TAA (FAR 52.225-5) and NDAA §889 screening is performed on every line, before the quote goes out. Country of origin is recorded as the manufacturer states it, never inferred, and a line that does not clear is flagged with alternates rather than quietly quoted. The determination on your award stays with your contracting officer; the diligence behind it is ours to run.

Questions

Uprocurement questions

Which purchasing platforms does Uprocurement work with?

Uprocurement is built for cXML-capable platforms — SAP Ariba, Coupa, Jaggaer, Oracle iProcurement, Workday and others — plus SAP OCI for SAP environments. If your platform speaks cXML or OCI, we can scope a connection. Naming a platform describes the connection types we support, not a partnership, certification or marketplace listing.

Do you support EDI?

Yes — EDI document exchange including 850 purchase orders, 855 acknowledgments, 856 advance ship notices and 810 invoices, over HTTPS and SFTP, with AS2 and VAN connections available on request.

How is pricing handled in a punchout or custom catalog?

Your organization's pricing is quoted and maintained by our team, and your catalog is scoped to the brands and categories you buy. Catalog exports and punchout sessions carry that pricing.

How do payments work for eProcurement orders?

Purchase orders are invoiced on approved terms. Our team sets up terms and invoicing as part of onboarding.

Where each capability lives

Uportal, API and Uprocurement

Uportal — the Uniqcli buyer portal — is the surface your team signs in to. API is the read-only machine catalog surface. Uprocurement is the integration program described on this page — every capability in that column is scoped and connected with your team rather than switched on from a sign-up form.

Tell us the project — Uprocurement integration

Tell us where to reach you and a Uniqcli specialist follows up by email to scope the work with you — what has to be covered, how many sites or buildings, and what already exists — then comes back with a quoted bill of materials across the equipment, the software licensing and the deployment work.

Priced against your own site rather than a package tier, sourced through authorized US distribution and screened line by line. We specify, supply, stage and integrate; internet access is scoped separately from the equipment on this page, and operating the network stays with your team or the provider you contract.

The first number is our real one, not an opening one.

Tell us the scope and we come back with the best price we can do on it.
