How to submit a reimbursement claim
Use when the PSAP paid the vendor and seeks SETNA reimbursement for pre-approved items. Prefer direct funding (vendor → State) when Chapter III allows it — it avoids general-fund posting pain.

Common mistakes
Claiming more than approved
The Branch column will reduce you — or bounce the package.
Missing proof of payment
Invoice without a check/EFT is incomplete.
Wrong processor
ATA / coordinator claims are often not on the CPE Advisor desk.
