All invoices must be submitted within this time frame to avoid delays or complications in payment processing.

Invoice accuracy: ensure that all invoices are accurate and complete, including necessary details such as purchase order numbers, itemized descriptions of goods or services provided, quantities, unit prices, and total amounts. Incomplete or incorrect invoices may result in processing delays. An inaccurate invoice cannot be processed until the required information is provided.
