When do you charge interest on Supplier claims?

Answer

This depends on what caused the Supplier Claim in the first place.

All claims include a short, interest-free grace period that is typically five business days.

Interest on claims for cancelled or amended invoices

If your customer amends or cancels an invoice we have prepaid, we don’t start charging interest until the original due date plus the grace period. However, please note that the 60-day settlement period for the claim still starts immediately after we send you a Customer account adjustment notice.

Interest on claims caused by credit notes and debit notes

If you issue a credit note or your customer issues a debit note, we wait until your customer uses them as part of a payment to us before we create the associated Supplier claim. The grace period and subsequent interest charges on these Supplier claims start immediately.

What is a Supplier claim?

A Supplier Claim occurs when we have a shortfall between what we have paid you and what we have received from your customer.

What events trigger an adjustment?

Adjustments can occur whenever your customer uses a credit note or debit note to settle their account, or if there are any changes or cancellations of invoices we’ve prepaid.

Why do adjustments happen?

We prepay your invoice as early as possible, however your customer will keep it open for amendment/dispute until it is approved according to their internal processes which can result in a shortfall.
