Catalog Management

Benefits

• Pre-approved items and pricing reduce maverick spend
• Users order from catalogs instead of ad-hoc requests
• Punch-out and integrations with supplier catalogs
• Control what can be ordered and at what price

How It Works

1. Catalogs are built with items, descriptions, and prices
2. Catalog items can be linked to preferred suppliers
3. Users browse and add items to a cart; the cart becomes a request or PO
4. Punch-out allows ordering from external catalogs while keeping control in Proqura

Use Cases

• Standardizing office supplies, IT, or MRO buying
• Driving compliance with preferred suppliers and contracted pricing
• Simplifying ordering for employees while keeping procurement in control

Frequently Asked Questions

Can we have multiple catalogs?

Yes. You can have catalogs by category, department, or region. Access can be restricted so users only see relevant catalogs.

What is punch-out?

Punch-out lets users shop on a supplier’s site from within Proqura. The cart is brought back into Proqura for approval and PO creation, so spend stays controlled.

How do we update catalog prices?

You can update prices manually or via import. For punch-out or integrated catalogs, prices can be refreshed according to your agreement with the supplier.
