When checking supplier addresses for Argentina orders, the key is to separate addresses by purpose, then verify the source for each type. Give registered, business, warehouse, invoicing, and contact addresses their own columns. If two addresses appear for the same purpose, pause rather than combine them in one cell and speculate.
Keep vehicle identity, material sources, and the current decision in one record. Leave every gap visible so the next person can follow the record and verify it. Supplier address review findings travel with the documents; do not circulate an old version before the update is complete.
This article describes an internal order verification method. It does not replace local registration or tax requirements. Entity registration and invoicing matters are subject to current requirements and confirmation by the responsible local party.
Separate Addresses by Purpose, Then Verify Each Source
Begin the supplier address review by distinguishing registered, business, warehouse, invoicing, and contact addresses. Give each purpose a separate column in an address comparison table instead of squeezing multiple uses into one cell. Use the supplier's registration documents for the registered address and the actual office and vehicle storage locations for business and warehouse addresses. Differences between these types of addresses are normal. Record them separately with their sources and verification dates.
If the person handling the review finds two addresses for the same purpose, or differences in spelling, floor, or city, first request written confirmation from the original provider. Do not use one document to settle what another says. Enter the confirmation in the address comparison table. The supplier verification lead maintains table versions, retaining the update date and source used for each version.
Who decides what on the supplier address review
| Aspect Requiring Verification | Evidence or Standard Clearing the Way Forward | Situations That Force a Pause | Role Accountable |
|---|---|---|---|
| Address comparison table | Registered, business, warehouse, and invoicing addresses appear separately with sources | Suspend use if two addresses appear for the same purpose | Supplier verification lead |
| Document address check | Document addresses match registered or notified addresses item by item | Return for explanation if a document shows a new address that was not notified | Order document reviewer |
| Change notification record | The notice states the previous and new addresses and effective date | Keep pending verification if the change notice lacks an effective date | Supplier verification lead |
| Address review sign-off | Sign-off covers only confirmed addresses communicated to all relevant roles | Exclude addresses whose sources are unconfirmed from sign-off | Purchasing approver |
The hold points in the table govern this review. Keep the address comparison table, document address check, and change notification record together in the archive. When the status changes from pending verification to signed off, the comparison table version, confirmation source, and sign-off date must be retrievable. A phone call saying “the address changed” cannot replace these three items.
After an address update, the supplier verification lead distributes the new version to finance and account reconciliation staff. If a document shows an address absent from the table, the order document reviewer first returns it to the supplier for a written explanation, then decides whether to update the table.
Written notices before address updates
Suppliers must notify the purchasing team when their addresses change. On receipt, first check that the notice states the previous and new addresses and the effective date, then update the address comparison table. If the address change affects the contract or invoice recipient details, also check whether the entity's address in its registration documents matches. After confirmation, hand the adopted version and unanswered questions to the payment review role.
If document addresses change without supplier notification, first suspend use of that supplier's materials and return them for a written explanation. Before using a supplier address in later documents, check the adopted table version and effective date. Return discrepancies found before shipment, payment, or invoicing for correction. Do not infer the address for new documents from an old address.
Hand Off Review Findings to the Relevant Roles
After the address review is signed off, hand it over with the address comparison table version and change notification record. The receiving role checks the effective date before using an address. If a supplier's sender address, invoicing address, and warehouse receiving address are in different cities, confirm each by purpose. Do not treat one type as representing all addresses.
The review method and field format from this batch can be reused for the next batch. File the supplier's old and new address versions separately. Historical inquiry records provide research leads; they do not directly justify new clearance decisions. For subsequent changes, follow the same process to update the comparison table and obtain a new sign-off.
FAQ
Is it a problem if the registered address differs from the business address?
No. The two address types serve different purposes, so record them separately. Use registration documents for the registered address and actual locations for business and warehouse addresses. If each type has a source and verification date, file the difference as normal. A pause and confirmation from the provider are needed when two addresses appear for the same purpose.
Can we update the address table if the supplier only says in chat that it moved to a new warehouse?
No. First require a written change notice stating the previous and new addresses and the effective date, then update the table. Once the notice arrives, the order document reviewer checks the new address in the documents against registration documents. After confirming the source, share the adopted version with finance. Until the notice arrives, continue referencing the old address under the original version.
What if the invoice address and registered address differ by one floor?
Stop and return the discrepancy to the invoice issuer for written confirmation. Do not use the invoice and registration materials as substitutes for one another. After confirmation, update the address comparison table, identifying the adopted version and source. Unconfirmed fields remain pending verification, and the related documents must not enter the payment process. The person handling the review records the questioned fields in the table for the next role to revisit.
What if the supplier did not notify us of an address change but issued documents using the new address?
First suspend use of the supplier's unverified documents and request a written explanation of the reason for the change and its effective date. Once the explanation arrives, follow the change process to verify and update the address comparison table, then determine whether the documents are valid. Chat messages or verbal updates cannot replace written notification. Do not arrange payment or shipment using the new address before confirmation is complete.
