Turn Around Timeframe:  Please handle all invoices promptly. Timely payment of vendor payments is a high priority of the State Comptroller's Office who, along with USM monitor and report late invoice statistics.   Delayed payments are closely reviewed and agencies are held accountable for late payments exceeding 1% of total volume processed.   The State Comptroller's Office requires that invoices are processed and transmitted to the State for payment within 25 calendar days, resulting in a very tight 5-day turn around timeframe between Accounts Payable and the campus departments.
