Abeta Converter: cXML & OCI PunchOut middleware
Do your corporate clients require a cXML PunchOut integration, while your e-commerce platform currently only supports OCI? Are you unable to connect with clients who use procurement systems such as SAP Ariba, Oracle, or Coupa?
The Abeta Converter middleware makes your webshop compatible with your client’s procurement software within a few days. Our converter translates all data in real time (from cXML to OCI and vice versa) allowing you to meet the technical procurement requirements of your enterprise clients immediately.
#How does the Abeta Converter work?
The Abeta Converter functions as a translation layer between your e-commerce platform and the client's procurement system. It handles the real-time translation of all incoming and outgoing messages, without requiring any modifications to your own webshop.
- Real-time translation: Incoming and outgoing data packets are instantly converted into the required format.
- No webshop modifications: You do not need to alter your source code or install complex modules to support a new protocol.
- Fast onboarding: Your webshop connects to major procurement software suites within days.

#Converting OCI to cXML PunchOut
If your webshop only supports OCI, but your client demands cXML, the Abeta Converter bridges the gap. The middleware intercepts the incoming cXML request, translates it to OCI for your webshop, and returns the shopping cart data in the required cXML format. This enables straightforward integration with systems like SAP Ariba and Coupa.
#Converting cXML to OCI PunchOut
If your webshop operates on cXML, but your client requires a traditional OCI connection, our converter performs the exact reverse process. It translates incoming OCI data into cXML and ensures that order data is processed correctly on both ends.
#Customizing XML order confirmations
Is your client's procurement system failing to transmit the required data in the correct format? Or do mismatched field layouts prevent your webshop from importing orders correctly? Using the Abeta Middleware converter, we adjust the fields and XML structures so that all data enters your system in the exact layout required.
#The benefits of the Abeta Converter for your e-commerce platform
- Fully managed solution: All technical maintenance and backend updates are handled entirely by Abeta.
- Data flow visibility: Comprehensive logs provide clear insights into the messages exchanged between the systems.
- Zero server overhead: The conversion process takes place externally, ensuring your webshop's performance and speed remain unaffected.
