Any other information about payment terms

Of the invoices due in the reporting period but not paid within agreed terms, 10 % were paid within seven days of their due date. An element of these are due to the fact that we have some invoices set to immediate payment terms which will always, in effect, be paid late not least due to the nature of periodic payment runs.
