In their own words · from the filing

Standard payment terms

Each supplier is required to submit their invoices to the Micro Focus Accounts Payable team in accordance with the instructions on the applicable purchase order. Micro Focus reserves the right to withhold payment on any invoice until such time as Supplier submits the invoice in accordance with the agreed requirements. The standard payment term is sixty (60) days from the receipt of a valid invoice. Some suppliers and supply categories, like essential services, will have payment terms negotiated in advance that will be different from the Micro Focus standard payment term. It is Micro Focus’ practice to issue payment for invoices that become due in the next payment run. If an invoice comes due after a payment run, payment will be issued in the next available payment run.

Dispute resolution

If any invoice is disputed, Micro Focus agrees to negotiate in good faith to resolve the dispute. Suppliers can contact the Micro Focus Accounts Payable Department (the current contact details of which are [email protected]), or their Micro Focus representative, in connection with disputed invoices, as well as for invoice status and any other payment related questions.

How UK payment reporting works

What is a Payment Practices Report?

UK companies and LLPs above a size threshold — broadly, two of: turnover over £54m, balance sheet over £27m, or more than 250 employees — must report twice a year, under the Reporting on Payment Practices and Performance Regulations 2017, how quickly they actually pay suppliers: the average time to pay, the share of invoices paid in 30 days or fewer, 31 to 60 days and 61 days or longer, and their standard payment terms. Those thresholds apply to financial years beginning on or after 6 April 2025; for earlier financial years they were £36m and £18m, with the same 250-employee test.

What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?

The share of invoices paid later than the terms in the supplier contract. If terms are 30 days and an invoice is paid on day 45, it counts as paid outside terms, regardless of the headline average.

How often is this data updated?

Each report covers a six-month period and must be filed within 30 days of that period ending, so a company's record refreshes roughly twice a year. PaidLate re-reads the register as new reports are filed.

Is this official government data?

The underlying payment figures come from the company's own statutory filings on the gov.uk payment-practices service; company-status data comes from Companies House. PaidLate calculates trends, comparisons and summaries from those records. It does not use surveys or credit-agency scores.

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 6,104 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
