Standard payment terms
Where the supplier does not explicitly state their payment terms the Company uses its own standard payment terms, which are 30 days from the date of the invoice. For intercompany invoices the standard terms are either 60 days or 30 days. For all other suppliers the terms are taken from those stipulated on the invoice and range from 0 (immediate payment) to 30 days. Around 40% of all invoices paid in the reporting period required immediate payment. Payment runs are performed each week and all those invoices which are identified by the system (terms are maintained in the master data) as due and those which will become due in the following week are flagged for payment. A BACS run is performed on the same day with payment reaching the supplier within the next few days. Priority/same day payments are also performed as and when required.
