Dispute Resolution Process

Invoices are processed in a structured, rule based process. Invoices which do not contain key information will be returned to the vendor with an accompanying note. Invoices which are accepted and are submitted for processing may encounter a discrepancy. In the first instance, a designated receiver of goods or a designated buyer of the goods will receive an automated request to confirm the quantity received and/or the price on the Purchase Order. If it is determined that the invoice does not match the quantity received or the price agreed, Accounts Payable will hold the invoice while a Credit Note is requested. When the correct Credit Note is received, it is processed with the original invoice to enable payment. A supplier invoicing guide is made available to suppliers. In addition to invoicing instructions, this guide also provides addresses, telephone numbers and e-mail addresses which can be used to resolve a dispute.

Has this business signed up to a code of conduct or standards on payment practices?
