Any other information about payment terms
Xerox endeavors to process all payments of invoices from all suppliers by their due date. Reasons for Xerox not being able to pay based on agreed terms include; receiving late or non-compliant invoices, invoices that are in dispute and our practices to consolidate payments into batches of an efficient size on a weekly payment run or monthly-preferred terms. Xerox also continues to promote its mature Procurement Card program which was established to ensure an efficient and timely payment process for suppliers and this program is now reflected in this report.
Dispute resolution process
At Xerox, we aim to resolve disputes or queries regarding invoices and payment as quickly as possible. Should a supplier have an invoice query they can contact Xerox accounts payable. If Xerox Accounts Payable team is not able to resolve the query, they will escalate the issue. The accounts payable team will communicate with the internal business contacts or Procurement to investigate why the invoice has not been approved for payment, and work to resolution.
