SUPPLIERS Receipt, invoicing and payment
Before processing an invoice payment, it's essential that all goods and services are logged into the Golden Mine Projects' ERP system. For all goods, a packing list should accompany them, preferably in a weather-protected sleeve. Additionally, relevant documents like Material Safety Data Sheets should be included when needed.
For service provisions, necessary paperwork such as contractor timesheets, job records, payment certificates, etc., should be sent to the Golden Mine Projects supervisor in charge of the work.
Approved documentation, together with the invoice, is utilized to generate a service entry sheet (SES) or framework order (FO) in the Golden Mine Projects' ERP system. These are then digitally sent to the respective person to confirm satisfactory completion of the work.
Golden Mine Projects manages supplier payments through the SAP ERP system.
When invoicing, suppliers should make sure:
Any invoice not adhering to these criteria might get rejected and sent back to the vendor with reasons. Vendors will need to rectify and resend these invoices.
Credit notes should always cite the related Purchase Order number and the associated invoice number.
If invoices are sent in the same month as the goods delivery or service provision, vendors can anticipate payment as per the agreed terms.
Every month, vendors should send a statement listing unpaid invoices. This assists Golden Mine Projects' Accounts Payable in reconciling with vendors, giving a clear picture of their pending liabilities.
Golden Mine Projects values its relationships with suppliers, focusing on mutual values and business ethics that foster growth. Thus, we encourage suppliers to report any pending payments to the relevant Commercial Manager. This proactive approach helps in resolving issues before an account is potentially put on hold.
