Standard payment terms

Lamex does not enforce its own payment terms. Payments are generally paid to the terms required by the supplier, or negotiated with the supplier, subject to the type of supply, normally within the range stated above. If no terms are stipulated in the supplier contract or invoice then default terms of 30 days are used on the Supplier master data. Payments are made on the next electronic transfer payment run following the expiry of the term days.
