Dispute resolution process

discussions are help between the company and the supplier to identify the dispute with the invoice. The supplier will either provide additional information to support the amount, or if there is an error, issue a credit note. The process can take several months and this impacts the days taken to settle the original invoice, which then shows as being paid significantly late
