Dispute resolution
1 - When an invoice discrepancy is identified, it is promptly communicated to the supplier. Common issues include incorrect pricing, quantity differences, or missing purchase order numbers. All queries are documented in writing, specifying the nature of the issue along with all necessary supporting details. The affected invoices are placed on hold until the issue is resolved. This process is overseen by the Accounts Payable team. 2 - The Accounts Payable team reviews supplier responses, processes any associated credit notes, and ensures payments are released accordingly. 3 - To expedite resolution, Accounts Payable works closely with internal stakeholders to address and clear outstanding queries. 4 - They also engage with suppliers to collect any missing invoices and to verify or update pa

What a 24-day cycle ties up
Illustrative. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 24-day vs a 0-day payment cycle.
Late Payment Act. The Late Payment of Commercial Debts Act lets a supplier charge statutory interest and fixed compensation on invoices paid past agreed terms. Work out what a late invoice is worth → Whether it applies depends on your contract — check with an adviser.

How UK payment reporting works
What is a Payment Practices Report?
What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?
How often is this data updated?
Is this official government data?
How this is compiled. Built from official records only: Companies House and the gov.uk payment-practices service. The payment figures are self-reported — companies over the size threshold must file them by law and the board signs them off. No credit-agency data. The numbers are theirs; the plain-English read is ours. This is information compiled from public records under the Open Government Licence v3.0 — not a credit rating and not advice.
The 31-day comparison figure is the median across 6,185 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
