iBuy - New Shopping Experience
The new shopping experience is a redesign of the shopping pages that consolidates the Advanced and Simple shopping experiences into a single new interface that streamlines, simplifies, and modernizes the user shopping experience.
The new shopping experience contains the pages below. What users see may vary based on organization settings and role
Search
The first page of the new shopping experience displays a search field and purchasing showcases that have been configured by your organization.
In the search field, users enter key words for the items they want to purchase, then click the search icon. Users can search for hosted and non-catalog items, requests, and level II punchout items.
Simple and Advanced tabs along the top of the search field allows users to toggle between simple and advanced search pages.
The Go to and Browse shortcut links provide quick access frequently used features such as favorites or forms. The links are displayed as text above the field on a wide screen, and collapse into a icon with a drop-down menu on narrower screens.

Recommended Search Items
In the new shopping experience, the product search field offers up to 10 recommended items based on a user's personal and shared favorites, and items that have been added to requisitions in the last 30 days. If there are no recommended items, or you do not want to use one of the recommended items, click the Search icon to generate a search.
In the recommended item list:
- Clicking on a product name will launch a search for the item and take users to the search results.
- A
icon indicates that an item is in the logged user's personal favorites folder. A
icon indicates that an item is in a shared favorites folder. A
icon indicates that an item has been added to a requisition in the last 30 days.
- An Add To Cart button allows users to add an item or request directly to their cart. An Add and checkout option on the drop-down menu will take users directly to the Checkout/Requisition page where they can purchase their items without going through the search results
