Will the SCC cart work with Joomla? I am not very knowledgable about Joomla but I think that you usually have to install the software in the SMC in order to be able to link and add to the menu.

Does anyone have any experience with this?

Are you asking if you have to install it via the administrator panels in joomla to get it to work/link it? If so, no. Just setup your cart however you want and point it via external link in joomla. I guess Im just missing what you mean by the "SMC".

Yes, I was wondering if it had to be installed like VirtueMart or other components but I tested linking to another cart with a URL-link and it was seamless. Beautiful.
