Invoicing Instructions
To obtain on-time payments, the following guidelines must be adhered to:
A. SENDING INVOICES AND PROPER ACKNOWLEDGMENT

ALL invoices are to be sent directly to the following MAILING ADDRESS:
ACCOUNTS PAYABLE
Procter and Gamble Asia Pte Ltd
10th Floor, Petron Megaplaza
358 Sen. Gil Puyat Avenue
Makati City 1200 Philippines
This should not be confused with the billing address (please refer to
section 11 of A)
As a general rule, all invoices sent to the company should be properly
acknowledged and dated thru the invoice receiving log book. It is the
Supplier’s responsibility to ensure that the invoices sent comply to the
requirements. Vendor messengers and representatives personally enter the invoice
details needed in the logbook and drop all invoice documents in the drop box.
Invoice receipt date is critical for payment terms (see below on Payment Terms).
Any discrepancies in the reconciliation of the log book details & invoices submitted
will be communicated to the supplier. Supplier should ensure that contact details
(e-mail, telephone no and address) are properly updated thru the Purchasing
contact. Lost invoices without proper details in the logbook will be deemed NOT
RECEIVED. The supplier must either re-issue a new invoice or issue a Certified
True Copy (CTC). Reckoning of payment terms will be based on the receipt
date of the new invoice or CTC.
Instructions
Please note that any deviations from below reminders would prompt our end to reject your
invoice(s) from payment processing
