Dispute Resolution Process

All invoices are sent to the Accounts Payable Team operated by a Shared Service Center, where they are recorded in the Accounts Payable Ledger. The Accounts Payable team is contactable by phone and by email. Vendors with invoice queries need to contact the Accounts Payable team in the first instance and they will work to resolve the query. If the Accounts Payable team are not able to resolve or if it is not clear from the system why the invoice has not been approved for payment, the Accounts Payable team will reach out to the invoice contact or Purchase Order Originator for assistance. If resolution is still not possible then the standard process is to be followed per the UK Terms & Conditions (for Goods and Services). Coty has also launched its e-invoicing facility Tradeshift allowing vendors to directly match invoices against PO’s. This allows for early identification of potential issues with an invoice that the vendor can address at the point of submission rather than having to wait for the Shared Service Center to inform them had the invoice been submitted by email. The full implementation of Tradeshift across all Coty UK suppliers is in progress.
