# Purchase Orders (PO) are failing to reach the supplier integrated system (via cXML), but can be seen in the supplier's Inbox

## Symptom

Purchase Orders (PO) failing to reach the supplier integrated system (via cXML), but can be seen in the supplier's SAP Business Network account.

The following error messages can appear in this scenario:

- PO-7: Received cXML response indicating a temporary error
- PO-9: Invalid cXML response
- PO-11: Cannot deliver order. Terminal error code for PO status: Couldn't parse document
- PO-11: Cannot deliver order. Terminal error code for PO status: Not Acceptable
- PO-11: Cannot deliver order. Terminal error code for PO status: Error
- PO-11: Cannot deliver order. Terminal error code for PO status: Fatal Error
- PO-11: Cannot deliver order. Terminal error code for PO status: The state of document XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX was changed to Failed after unsuccessful attempts to resend it.

## Cause

In general, this issue is caused by the cXML URL, configured in the supplier's SAP Business Network account, to be unavailable or incorrect. It can also be caused by an invalid cXML response or error code sent by the supplier integrated system.

## Resolution

If the supplier is expecting to receive their PO's in their integrated system via cXML, the routing method needs to be set to cXML in **Settings > Electronic Order Configuration**, and a valid and working URL needs to be configured.

Additionally, this URL needs to respond to SAP Business Network postings correctly, otherwise the orders will be marked as **Failed**.
