Dispute Resolution Process

Goods for branches are checked and authorised by the individual branches, any discrepancies are either reported directly to the supplier by the branch or the Purchase Ledger team can often assist by liaising with the supplier. Overhead invoices are directed to the appropriate budget holder for approval and then paid on the relevant payment run when payment becomes due. Invoices are placed on hold until the discrepancy is resolved, after which the invoice is paid on the next scheduled payment run
