objection / challenge


Explanation:
Invoice objection, invoice challenge.

Although disputes might cut, I think questions or queries is not correct. You may question an invoice without necessarily objecting, challenging or disputing it.

agree  Steve Melling: Agree with you Colin. Of course, invoice being more UK English, it could be replaced and "bill" used instead but very much with the same structure.
