Self-service invoicing system
Salford City Council has developed a system that will allow suppliers and service providers to submit invoices electronically via a form on our website. This will mean that you will be able to trade electronically with the council. All that is required is that you have received an official purchase order from the council, and that you have a computer with an internet connection.
There will be no cost to you for submitting invoices and if you agree to use the system to submit invoices, you will be offered 10 day payment terms rather than the standard 30 days. The solution has been developed ‘in house' so no commission is paid to any third party software provider.
Benefits:
- Payment terms reduced from 30 days to 10 days
- Invoices are posted into our system within seconds of the form being submitted - no waiting for council staff to receive and process an invoice
- Quick and easy user interface - an invoice can be created and submitted in seconds
No chance of invoices being lost in the post - Reduction in printing and postage costs
- A copy invoice emailed back to you immediately for your records
- No cost to you or the council
