Standard payment terms
The standard payment term is sixty (60) days from the receipt of a valid invoice. Some suppliers and supply categories, like essential services, will have payment terms negotiated in advance that will be different from the Micro Focus Limited standard payment term. It is Micro Focus Limited’ practice to issue payment for invoices that become due in the next payment run. If an invoice comes due after a payment run, payment will be issued in the next available payment run.
