Invoices are disputed by the business by advising AP within 14 days of receiving the invoice from AP, that they wish to place an invoice in dispute and qualify this by adding a dispute status (eg Price dispute) and a comment detailing the problem. This information is then sent to the supplier who is asked to resolve the dispute within 10 working days. If the dispute cannot be resolved within this time frame, the supplier will be asked to credit the invoice.
