Any other information about payment terms
The majority of suppliers agree to standard payment terms of 60 days end of month. However, the business has some arrangements with smaller suppliers who require shorter payment terms and have been accommodated (for example, sole traders with 14 day terms, this is non-standard). Likewise some suppliers accept payment at 90 days end of month.
Dispute resolution process
The main point of contact for purchase ledger queries and disputed invoices is the central accounts payable team based at the Coventry registered office. When an invoice is queried by idverde, the supplier is notified either via email or by telephone. The supplier is required to provide additional/missing information or correct the details on the invoice. It must be noted that idverde operates a strict PO process and all invoices are required to quote an authorised PO. The PO number is quoted at the point of order by the idverde operational teams or via idverde's central office in Coventry.
