Punchout debugging xml files

UpdatedOctober 12, 2026

If you need to debug what is happening in a punchout exchance you can generate the xml's involved by enabling "FND: Debug Log Enabled" (AFLOG_ENABLED) for the specific user.

Then, after you visited the punchout and got the shopping cart back you can find the xml's that are exchanged in the directory referenced by profile option "POR: Catalog Bulk Load Directory" (POR_TEMP_CATALOG_FILES).

There should be three files in that directory:

login request
login response
shipping cart

Happy hunting!
