DELINQUENT DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL SERVICES' INVOICES - 8471.4-SEP-2013
(Revised 9/2013 and renumbered from 8471.51)
DGS will collect delinquent invoices in accordance with Government Code section 11291 which states: "If a state agency refuses to pay the charges fixed by the Department of General Services pursuant to this article, the department may file a claim for such charges against any appropriations made for the support or maintenance of all or any part of the work and affairs of the state agency." Allowing invoices to become delinquent will be considered a refusal to pay.
An invoice will be considered delinquent if it is not scheduled by the department within 60 days from the date of the invoice unless the total amount due is less than $10. DGS may submit an EFT with the SCO when a department allows invoices to become delinquent and the SCO will transfer the payment from the department's appropriation.
