If we have a purchase invoice that we do not agree with the rate, price, or type of charge, this is queried by the operations department directly with the supplier. The finance department will chase the operations team to resolve the query before the payment for the invoice becomes due. Once the query is resolved, the invoice is either paid or we receive a credit note.
