The most frequently used payment terms for qualifying contracts are 14 days from the date of invoice. However, some suppliers offer 30 days from end of the month of invoicing. In general terms, supplier payment terms adopted by Circuit are for invoices to be settled on the next weekly payment run following the period of credit agreed with the supplier. These terms range from immediate payment, to payment falling due at the end of the month following the invoice date. Consequently, when the invoice is approved by the appropriate delegated authority, it is allocated for payment accordingly.

Circuit seeks to resolve any queries and disputes on a timely basis. In respect of the supply of physical goods, goods received are inspected and receipted on site with any issues arising communicated promptly to the supplier via telephone or email. In respect of services these are evidenced as being provided when the invoice is authorised by the heads of department with any issues arising communicated promptly to the supplier via telephone or email. Any invoice that is considered to be incorrect is raised with the supplier and relevant head of department immediately. Circuit does not issue Debit Notes against any disputed invoices. Rather, the disputed invoices are placed in query and the purchase order and invoice are then queried with the supplier to resolve the matter. Once the dispute has been resolved the invoice, together with any adjustment that might be required, is then processed for payment on the next weekly payment run, but this can be expedited as a single payment if appropriate. In the extremely rare event that a dispute cannot be resolved on a commercial basis the matter will be referred to our in-house legal counsel.

This is where suppliers can electronically submit and track invoices. It's not just allowing suppliers to email them an invoice.

This is where a supplier who has submitted an invoice can be paid by a third-party finance provider earlier than the agreed payment date. The business would then pay the finance provider the invoiced sum.
