In early February, Amazon announced that they would be shutting down Amazon Smile services. Read their statement here.
Update March 20 2023:
Current Amazon Smile PunchOut customers will be transitioned to their respective Amazon Business USA or CA PunchOuts. Procurify is phasing out Amazon Smile Functionality through March/April 2023.
The migration process requires your site administrator to perform the following tasks:
-
Determine the Amazon Business accounts associated with your current Amazon Smile PunchOut groups and the country for each (.com or .ca).
-
Add “DISCONTINUED” or “DO NOT USE” in front of each group name.
-
For each Smile group, create a new Amazon CA or USA group that is associated with the same Amazon Business account(s).
-
Ask your teams/users to complete all current Amazon Smile request/orders and resume PunchOut operations using the new Amazon CA or USA groups when selected in the RFO Supplier Portal.
E.g. If you have 2 groups currently setup for Amazon Smile that both utilize an Amazon Business Canada account, create 2 new Amazon Canada PunchOut groups that utilize the same Amazon Business Canada account.
During the migration phase, Procurify will be performing the following updates:
-
Removing the ability for users to create new orders that are tied to Amazon Smile PunchOut groups
-
Removing the ability for site administrators to create new Amazon Smile PunchOut groups
-
Removing the ability for site administrators to edit existing Amazon Smile PunchOut groups
Note: Users will still have the ability to approve/finalize, edit, and view existing Amazon Smile PunchOut orders. The system will continue to send orders to Amazon PunchOut and receive order confirmations as expected.
