We request that suppliers provide as much information on any enquiry including purchase order number and a contact name relating to the supply. Where an invoice is disputed, the supplier will be contacted by telephone or email to explain the dispute. To resolve a dispute the supplier is required to provide any missing information or provide a corrected invoice and/or credit note as appropriate.
