Dispute resolution process
Invoice payments relating to overheads will always have a PO raised and approved which must match the invoice submitted. Any issues are raised with either the supplier for incorrect invoicing or internally should the PO need amending. The invoice will remain active to ensure timely payment of any other invoices.
Alternatively, where the charges relate to energy and include meters not on an ENGIE supply, the full invoice would still be paid with a credit note being requested to offset against future balances.
