Any other information about payment terms
The invoices paid outside of agreed terms of 88% is impacted by our BACS run procedure. A BACS run is completed at the beginning of each month for all invoices due during the previous month, this means that a large number of invoices are shown as paid late, including items late by just 1 day. Our procedure helps to capture invoices monthly in the payment run with a consistent payment pattern for suppliers. In the orthopaedics industry it is common for terms to be 60 days or longer. This explains why 38% of payments are made 60 days or longer from receipt.
