Payment disputes are normally received by the purchase ledge clerk and escalated to the Finance Director. Usually these are very minor issues relating to small value invoices that have not been settled on time to avoid the account being placed on hold. If the invoice can be verified an ad hoc payment will be made to lift the hold on the account.
