SunB2B Partner’s User Guide v 12
3.5 Purchasing Order Generation There are two ways whereby a Sun Partner can generate a PO:
3.5.1 For Partners with existing ERP systems and are determined by Sun to
be eligible, an ASCII file of PO information is created by the Partner's
ERP system and sent its encrypted form to the ASP (iGINE) or further
processing. (Flowchart 5)
3.5.2 (F or EMEA only) For EMEA Customers submitting via
MySunCatalogue (MSC), the PO information is entered in MSC and
an XML f ile of the PO is automatically created by MSC. It is then
encrypted and sent to the SunB2B webfront for subsequent verification.
3.5.3 Fo r the rest of the Partners, PO entry is performed via the Sun B2B
Webfront using a web browser. (Flowchart 4) There are two kinds of
orders that partners can create:
Ordinary Orders
End User Orders (for items that partners buy on their custom er’s
behalf due to various reasons e.g. taxation constraints. End
User Orders are a lso known as US Dollar orders or Back
Commission orders; such orders are applicable to only certain
regions e.g. Asia South, Korea, Latin America etc.)
