Typically, the buyer enters into an agreement with a finance provider to establish the program, purchases goods and services from suppliers with a promise to pay later, and notifies the provider of the supplier invoices it has confirmed as valid. Suppliers may then request early payment from the finance provider for those confirmed invoices.
For fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, U.S. accounting standards require a buyer in a supplier finance program to disclose information about the program, including its key terms.
