Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

Service Graphics’ standard payment terms are 93 days from the end of the month of the invoice date. For certain suppliers, e.g. regulatory bodies, one-off suppliers, or suppliers below a certain level of expenditure, payment terms can be less than the standard terms. Payment terms are notified to suppliers as part of the on boarding process which involves the completion of a standard new supplier form, with parts completed by the supplier and the relevant procurement contact. The supplier form is submitted to the accounts payable team, in accordance with the delegated authorities, to upload details in the system. Subsequent changes to terms, where applicable, are discussed between the procurement contact and the supplier and notified to the accounts payable team.
