Dispute Resolution Process

The Accounts Payable team is responsible for communicating on invoices that are in dispute to vendors. o If an invoice is incorrect or has been rejected by the business, the Accounts Payable assistant will return the invoice to the vendor by email with a covering letter explaining the reason for the rejection. o If the query is something that can be resolved quickly, the Accounts Payable assistant will contact the vendor by phone or email to request the relevant information. The invoice reviewer also sometimes contacts the vendor directly for clarification. o For invoices that are submitted electronically via OpenInvoice (third party web-based system) a note is entered in OpenInvoice to explain the reason for the dispute and sent electronically to the vendor. o The vendor is expected to resolve the dispute with their responsible contact or provide the required backup/information and resubmit their invoice.
