Any other information about payment terms
Any payment we have made outside our standard payment terms are generally due to discrepancies on invoice verses items received or pricing issues that the purchasing department is working with the supplier to resolve before proceeding to pay the invoice.
Dispute resolution process
Prior to paying any invoice, company policy is to compare the invoiced items and invoiced amount with the original quote or matching to items received. If there is a discrepancy on the invoice from what we would expect, the internal department who requested the order will dispute the charges directly with the vendor. The resolution will either be an additional shipment of the missing items or a credit note for the original invoice and re-issuing a new, corrected invoice (or a partial credit note for the items not received or billed incorrectly). It is also possible that after discussion with the vendor we come to an agreement to pay the invoice as it originally stood.
