Dispute Resolution Process
When the delivery of goods or services is disputed, the budget holder will liaise with the supplier and ensure both parties are clear why payment is being withheld. If the supplier is of the opinion that the goods or services have been delivered in a satisfactory manner, accounts payable would ensure the budget holder is happy to approve the invoice on our invoice management software or obtain sufficient reason for withholding payment.
