1. Using the Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) Dell Punch-out Catalog

2. How to Use This Punch-out Training Guide
As desktop help references, the full SRM Shoppers Training documents are housed on the Purchasing Division website at: The documents contains a broad perspective of the procurement system including Personal Settings, Shopping Cart tracking and Related Documents, approvals, etc.
In addition, Purchasing creates and publishes on its website smaller Quick Reference Guides customized for each punch-out catalog (i.e., this document). The punch-out guides are designed to reflect exact steps when ordering from each individual catalog.
This Quick Reference Guide material assumes the Shopper has already set their Personal Settings. If assistance is needed with Personal Settings or other features beyond what is reflected here, you may find the larger Shopper training documents to be useful.

3. Who Uses the Dell Punch-Out Catalog
The Dell punch-out catalog is used solely with the Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) system. Currently, all areas of campus use SRM as their procurement system with the exception of Hospital areas. Departments within these areas will continue to use the e-Buy site for Dell purchases.
All other areas of campus should utilize the punch-out catalog through SRM for purchases of Dell products regardless of price. This includes items previously purchased through the e-Buy site utilizing procurement card.

4. Dell Lease Purchases
Some departments choose to purchase Dell computers through a lease program rather than direct purchase. Dell lease purchases are not executed within the Dell SRM punch-out process.
Shoppers will enter a Free Text Shopping Cart in SRM for Purchasing to manually process a purchase order for leasing to Dell.
Create the cart as a one line reverse type and use as the vendor # on the Source of Supply tab.
Please ensure all Dell quotes pertaining to the Lease Purchase are attached in the Notes and Attachments tab in the cart.
