We don't usually have any disputes or complaints as we do a weekly payment run to make sure suppliers are paid on time. However, Our Supplier Dispute Procedure When an invoice with a Purchase Order (PO) is processed, a 3-way match is required for payment. If the 3-way match is not completed, the invoice will be placed on hold until the dispute is resolved. Disputes can arise from discrepancies in price, quantity, or quality. Our goal is to resolve all invoice disputes within 7 working days from the invoice processing date. Here is the dispute resolution process: 1. Run the MRBR report in SAP to identify all current invoice disputes. 2. Prioritize invoices by due date to ensure timely payment. 3. If a PO has not been booked, contact the PO requestor to provide delivery notes to Logistics for booking. 4. If there are concerns about service, goods supplied, or pricing, the Order Creator will query this directly with the supplier. 5. The Order Creator will contact the supplier with a clear explanation of the dispute and provide supporting documentation (e.g., photos, order confirmations). 6. After communicating with the supplier, the Order Creator will inform Accounts of the dispute's outcome, which could be a full credit, partial credit, or acceptance of the invoice as is. 7. If the order needs to be updated according to the invoice acceptance, the Order Creator will make these changes in SAP, allowing the invoice to be cleared for payment. 8. If the supplier provides a credit note, Accounts will process it in SAP, enabling invoice payment. 9. Once the order is corrected in SAP or the credit note is processed, the MRBR report will be re-run to clear the automated dispute. 10. The cleared invoice will then be included in the next payment run.
