Any other information about payment terms

Standard terms are 90days, however variances do exist and certain types of payments have different payment terms. Exceptions are allowed to the standard terms if approved. We apply the strict payment practice guidance (referencing guidance item 121) when reporting on invoices with immediate payment terms, in that payment should be processed with the next scheduled payment run after approval of invoice. This application negatively impacts the overall reported percentage of late payments. In practise we make such payments promptly.

Dispute resolution process

Reference section 4.1 in the link provided. All disputes will be reviewed by the Business Group purchasing the goods/service. In the event of escalation, Procurement and Legal will review. https://legal.yahoo.com/ie/en/yahoo/terms/vendor/mastertnc/index.html
