Enter a Marketsite Order+

Overview

Marketsite+ is a shopping website containing catalogs for some U-M strategic suppliers. This site is integrated with M-Pathways eProcurement (ePro). This procedure demonstrates:

• Linking to Marketsite+ from ePro.
• Using the Search field to search for and select an item from a hosted supplier.
• Completing the ePro requisition in M-Pathways.

Within Marketsite+ you will find hosted suppliers and punch-out suppliers. A hosted supplier provides their catalog directly in Marketsite+. A punch-out supplier provides a link in Marketsite+ to a catalog on their website. See the Punch-out section of this procedure to learn about ordering from a punch-out supplier.

Important Information

• Cancel the punch-out and return to Marketsite+ without saving the order.
• Select item(s) for your Marketsite+ shopping cart.
• Check out of the supplier’s website to return to Marketsite+ to complete the order.

The Punch-out supplier buttons in the Showcases group box are links to the supplier’s website. Supplier buttons are organized by Category (e.g., Office/Computer). 

If an item from a punch-out supplier matches your search criteria, an Order from Supplier link appears in the Search Results list to go to that supplier's website.

1. From Marketsite+, click a supplier button to go to that supplier’s website.
