the library desk. Here the delivery note is checked against a file of books ordered. If no order can be found to
match the note, a letter of enquiry is sent to the publishers. If a matching order is found, a catalogue note is
prepared from the details on the validated delivery note. The catalogue note, together with the book, is sent to
the registration department. The validated delivery note is sent to the accounts department where it is stored.
On receipt of an invoice from the publisher, the accounts department checks its store of delivery notes. If the
corresponding delivery note is found then an instruction to pay the publishers is made, and subsequently a
cheque is sent. If no corresponding delivery note is found, the invoice is stored in a pending file.
