Any other information about payment terms

We endeavour to meet the supplier due dates, but do not make payments every day. We process payments twice a week and therefore a supplier may be paid 2 or 3 days behind depending on the date their invoice falls due.

Dispute resolution process

We request copy POD's for any invoices that are yet to be processed or challenge the supplier if quantities or price are incorrect. Once the POD is received we will match it to the order and if all ok then process the invoice for payment. A credit note may be issued by the supplier for price/qty queries and once the credit is agreed and received we will process the original invoice and credit accordingly.
