This information is as reported by the business, and responses are in their own words.
Standard payment terms
Payment terms are agreed between suppliers and our purchasing department upon being set up. Approximately 50% of suppliers are on a 30-day payment term. Payment runs are scheduled approximately every 2-3 days. When an invoice falls due, it will be picked up and included on the next available payment run. Suppliers are advised to speak to the purchasing department should they want to negotiate new payment terms. If payment terms are changed, any current invoices awaiting payment have the due dates changed in line with the new terms.
Were there any changes to the standard payment terms in the reporting period?

Statements are checked daily for any overdue invoices. Copies are requested if they are not found in our system. Invoices awaiting authorising are chased up for status updates. If a supplier calls/emails for invoice payment, these are chased up with whomever the invoice is sat with for authorising/receipting. Managerial input may be required if there is no response. Queried invoices are raised with suppliers at the earliest possible opportunity via email and/or telephone. Notes are added to invoices on our system and updated with every new communication, so all staff are aware of the current status. Invoices will remain in query until a mutual resolution has been agreed for example: a credit note raised or a breakdown of what the invoice is. Once an overdue invoice has been authorised, these are processed in time for the next available payment run.
