OSU Accounts Payable has maintained a program called AutoPay for a number of years.  The AutoPay program allows employees to make purchases from certain vendors using an OSU index for billing purposes.  After April 20^th we will transition some of the AutoPay vendors to other purchasing and payment methods. This transition will enable the Accounts Payable team to focus on further enhancement of new technology and additional methods for purchasing and payment. To assist you with the transition, please see the chart below indicating the vendors, the purchasing/payment method, preferred method and secondary method.  We appreciate your collaboration as we move through this transition.  If you have questions, please contact RaeLee Aguilar or Kelly Kozisek
