Dispute resolution process

The Accounts Payable (AP) team generally acts as the middle point of contact.

When a dispute arises during the internal approval process of an invoice, the AP team reaches out to the supplier using the information provided by the approver to seek a resolution. If the matter cannot be resolved at this stage, the query is referred back to the approver, who must then liaise directly with the supplier.

Queries are addressed as soon as they are raised. However, the resolution timescale depends on several factors, particularly the response time from all parties involved.
