• The Basware Supplier Portal tool can be used by all sizes of suppliers, including the smaller and more ad-hoc suppliers
• A supplier can quickly and easily key in his invoice for the recipient party
• The supplier can even add attachments (such as worksheets) to the keyed in invoice
• These typed invoices and attachments are delivered to the buyer’s Basware system via the e-invoice network
• Rights can be given to allow key suppliers to track their own invoices, reduces customer effort spent on answering inquiries
