Step 5: Determine PO Transmission Methods
Overview
Do you know what kind of transmission method works for your supplier?
- Email and/or Coupa Supplier Portal
- cXML or EDI
- Prompt (if you don’t have the suppliers email address or don’t want to automatically transmit PO’s to a specific supplier)
The majority of suppliers use email and the Coupa Supplier Portal.
A small number of the highest volume suppliers are able to use cXML/EDI.
Suppliers method of transaction is ultimately a supplier business decision, but suppliers are usually interested in cXML/EDI integration options when they do more than 1000 transactions per year.
