Dispute resolution process

Any disputes are raised by the company to the supplier and are processed through the purchase ledger department. This is then in turn allocated to the branch responsible for the invoice in query for it to be resolved. Once this is resolved the invoice is then accepted and passed over for payment authorisation or a credit note is requested from the supplier.
