· includes the date, supplier name, contact details, bank details and Purchase Order number as applicable · is emailed to accounts@newtoneurope.com.

Dispute resolution process

Dispute Resolution

If an invoice has been disputed by the approving manager they are asked to provide a reason for the dispute and are asked for a status update each week to ascertain if the invoice can be approved or if a new invoice will be issued. The approving manager is asked to contact the relevant supplier to resolve the dispute.

If you believe a dispute is not being resolved in a timely manner, please contact accounts@newtoneurope.com

Prompt notification of late payment

If the invoice is overdue for payment, Newton’s Finance team will e-mail the nominated contact at the supplier to explain the reason for the invoice not being paid and advise the approving manager who needs to approve before payment can be authorised.
