All Other Suppliers Defined - all vendors that have conducted business with Clemson within the past two years are available in buyWays.  In most cases, orders to these suppliers would be done by using one of the custom forms (i.e. Non-Catalog Form) located on the clemson forms link on the home/shop page of buyWays.

eInvoice Suppliers Defined - some suppliers electronically create their invoice in buyWays.  These suppliers will electronically transfer their invoice from their system directly into buyWays.  Electronic invoices are identified as created by 'System' in the invoice history tab.
