If an invoice is identified as incorrect, it must be reported as ‘In Dispute’ by the Budget Holder. The following protocol applies: The Budget Holder is responsible for rejecting the payment authorisation and providing the Shared Finance Team with comprehensive information to facilitate an investigation. All correspondence with the supplier regarding the query must be documented, with notes and supporting evidence attached directly to the invoice record in the system. Once the Budget Holder is satisfied that the discrepancy has been resolved and the invoice is accurate, they must formally approve the invoice to authorise payment. Following Budget Holder authorisation, the Shared Finance Team will release the invoice for payment through the Trust’s accounting system in the next available run.
