General Provisions — Responsibilities of State Agencies
Erroneous Processing of Vouchers

The processing by the Comptroller’s office of a purchase voucher in error does not obligate the Comptroller’s office to process all similar, subsequent vouchers.

Each voucher must stand on its own, as an improper payment type is not made proper by the fact it was made one or more times. Therefore, a state agency should not assume the processing of a particular voucher indicates the decision of the Comptroller’s office to process all similar, subsequent vouchers.
