3M sent the original claim to the purchasing department. On 12/20/11 I requested that the address be changed to the Health & Human Services Division and that a new invoice needed to be sent.  We did not have the funds in the object code.  We requested a line item transfer on 12/27/11.  Unfortunately the line item transfer was not entered until 1/5/12 which is the date we entered the purchase requisition # 00208387.  We had been waiting for approval from purchasing but did not get an approval nor a response.  We went to inquire on the status of this requisition and were told that because it was a 2011 requisition entered in 2012, they were not able to approve it.  We were advised to delete  the requisition and process as a 2011 claim.  All supporting documentation has been attached to the agenda item.  A Purchase order  has already been obtained for the 2012 3M pending invoice and we will make sure that we obtain an invoice from 3M on time in the future.
