Finance update: help us pay our suppliers in time

Friday, 28 April 2017

Did you know that in this financial year so far we have paid to our suppliers over 32,500 invoices?

Some of this volume were not paid within 30 days and so to help us ensure we pay our suppliers as many invoices as possible in time it would be appreciated if you could do the following:

• Ensure the invoice is addressed and delivered directly to the Accounts Payable department
• A PO has been raised prior to requesting the service
• If the goods or service have been received that you GRN promptly 
• The invoice is the same value or less than the PO
• Invoice is approved swiftly if it does require authorisation (i.e. when no GRN is raised or there is a difference between Invoice and PO)
