Dispute resolution process
Accounts Payable enters the invoice onto the system and sends it to the originator of the order or employee
responsible if it is a Non Pop invoice to check. The person then contacts the supplier if there is any dispute, and
either authorises the price change or requests a credit note. The invoice should only be authorised when
account payable presents the credit for authorisation. Both documents are then paid on the next payment run if due.
