Dispute resolution process

If an invoice has been disputed by the approving manager they are asked to provide a reason for the dispute and are asked for a status update each week to ascertain if the invoice can be approved or if a new invoice will be issued. The approving manager is asked to contact the relevant supplier to resolve the dispute. If the invoice is overdue for payment Finance will also e-mail the contact at the supplier to explain the reason for the invoice not being paid and advise the approving manager who needs to approve before payment can be authorised.
