The majority of suppliers are paid once a month within eight working days following the month-end. The company uses this additional time to ensure that invoice queries are resolved and settlement of the full account is made. For the purposes of the above statistics these have been treated as being paid outside of the agreed terms. Adjusting for this timing difference, 96% of invoices are paid within the agreed terms. Those not paid within terms are typically due to unresolved queries by the supplier, late or early delivery of product.
Suppliers are notified directly of any invoicing queries preventing payment when identified. Once the query has been cleared the invoice is included on the next available payment run. Queries and disputes are initially dealt with by the Accounts Payable team. The supplier can escalate any disputes through their assigned Purchasing Department contact.
For example, signatories to The Prompt Payment Code must commit to paying 95% of their invoices within 60 days.
