How can I access my invoices/credit notes online?
You can access your invoices using our Invoices On-Line application.
There are two options available to access the application:
- Registered access: Requires your IBM User ID and password and entitlement to access information pertaining to your IBM account. You can view all your invoices/credit notes and you will have access to additional functions, like download to spreadsheet, e-mail notification of new invoices and invoice inquiry (typically with 24 hour response time).
If you already have an IBM User ID and password proceed with the first option under 'Register here', if not choose option 2 to create one. (Learn more about IBM User ID and registration).
To complete the registration and authorization, you will need to follow some simple instructions that will appear on the screen.
You will receive an e-mail that will confirm your authorization to access.
- Guest access: Using a combination of your customer number, invoice number and your e-mail address you can view and print an invoice. (Please note that functions are limited and you can only view up to 3 invoices, after which you are required to register).
For further information or assistance, please contact our Customer Support Team on 1 800 88 1119, Monday to Friday, between the hours of 09:00 - 17:00.
Why should I obtain an IBM User ID and password?
An IBM User ID and password gives you access to our web tools which can help you manage your IBM account. With an IBM User ID and password you can request entitlement to various e-tools such as Order Status OnLine and Invoices On-Line. Learn more about registration and the e-tools available in your country.
Please supply the following information when registering for your IBM User ID:
- User ID (in e-mail format, e.g. jdoe@us.ibm.com; this will be checked against IBM records to verify it is not in use by another previously registered user)
- Password (8 character minimum)
- A security challenge question and answer
- Personal information: Country of residence, language preference, first name, last name, e-mail address, daytime telephone number.
- Company information: Company name, street address, city, state or province, zip or postal code and country location (of the business address).
Accuracy and detail are very important to future online transactions and e-tool entitlement.
Note that failure to provide any of the required fields prevents the user from completing IBM Registration.
As required by local data protection regulations, you will also be required to confirm that IBM may store and use your Personal Information to contact you and to export your Personal Information outside your country of residence.
What are the due dates and payment dates for IBM invoices?
Invoices are due and payable upon receipt of IBM invoice, as detailed in the IBM Customer Agreement.
In the case of quarterly invoicing (e.g. as with certain software license charges and maintenance charges), invoices are issued at the beginning of the quarter and due and payable upon receipt of invoice.
Late payment charges may apply if payment is not received by IBM within 30 days from the date of invoice or in the case of quarterly invoicing within 60 days from the date of the invoice.
The above 30 and 60 days may be reduced in certain countries as specified in our agreements.
What about late payment fees?
Terms relating to late payment fees are normal practice for suppliers; IBM defines these within its contractual agreements, e.g. the IBM Customer Agreement. The applicable statutory interest rates are as prescribed by the Late Payment of Commercial Debts legislation.
