Pedlar Intake

Pedlar turns quotes and product links into a ready-made cart.

Pedlar Intake reads line items, prices and UNSPSC codes and sends the cart back to your e-procurement system. You always order from Pedlar and need only one vendor.

01/ 07The problem

Anything without a catalog becomes a free-text order.

Free-text orders mean follow-up questions, manual checks and, in the end, a new supplier setup anyway.

  1. Your colleagues retype quotes and items from online shops line by line.
  2. Procurement asks for the supplier, price and commodity group.
  3. If the official route is too slow, departments buy around it, with no approval and no budget control.

Order to Pedlar
  1. You open Pedlar by punchout from your e-procurement system.
  2. You enter the need as a quote PDF or a link.
  3. The finished cart goes back to your system. Approval and ordering run as usual.
  4. From here, Pedlar takes over.
03/ 07Inputs

You enter the need in two ways.

01

The quote PDF becomes a finished cart.

You upload the quote PDF. Pedlar reads the line items, prices and commodity groups automatically and builds the cart from them.

02

A link from the online shop is enough.

You paste product URLs from any online shop. Pedlar pulls the item data and creates the line items, also from several shops in one cart.

In our development departments and labs, we need special tools or components almost every day. Often a quick web search shows where and at what price we can buy them online. The catch is that most online shops are not in our supplier portfolio. That is exactly where Pedlar makes life really easy for us.

FAQ

What does Pedlar cost?

No fixed costs, no minimum quantities. We charge a service fee based on order volume and agree specific terms in the intro call.

How much work is it for our IT?

Standard punchout (cXML or OCI), with no custom development and no interface project.

We already have catalogs and a P2P suite. Does Pedlar fit in?

Yes, it adds to them. Your catalogs cover the standard range. Pedlar takes the purchases no catalog covers: spare parts, custom-made parts, services, software. Both run side by side in the same e-procurement system.

What can we order through Pedlar?

Practically anything outside your catalogs: products from online shops, spare and special parts, trade fair supplies, services and software. If a supplier sends a quote, the quote PDF is enough.

What do we commit to?

Nothing. You set Pedlar up as a supplier and order when you need something. No minimum quantities, no fixed costs, no minimum term.
