A free hosted virtual supplier for testing buyer-side PunchOut and OCI flows with real cXML requests, catalogues, carts, orders, and fulfilment documents.

Why it surfaced

PunchOut Sandbox addresses a specific testing blind spot: round-tripping your own build can prove that two halves agree while still missing a standards mistake. It offers a 96-product catalogue, document validation against cXML DTDs, buyer-platform ingestion tests, and unusually candid reference material on truncation, pricing, VAT, SAP OCI, and other failures.
