Any other information about payment terms
Invoices due but not paid within agreed terms may be because of:
-Supplier invoices being received late
-The time taken to resolve disputes concerning the quality, quantity or price of the goods or services supplied
Dispute resolution process
Invoices are matched to Goods Receipt PO's on receipt by the Accounts Payable team. Any invoice variances are sent to either the purchasing department or goods in department for approval. If the invoice is disputed by either department the Accounts Payable team email the supplier with a credit request / proof of delivery typically within 48 hours.Once a full credit or proof of delivery has been received the invoice and credit where applicable are reconciled ready for payment. If in the meantime the invoice has become due for payment, the invoice is added to the next available BACs run (Weekly). If Accounts Payable are unable to resolve the dispute it is escalated to the Group Financial Controller for resolution
