A voucher, invoice, or other routine <br /> request for payment that is not in dispute when submitted is not a <br /> claim under the Act. The submission may be converted to a claim <br /> <br /> under the Act, by complying with the submission and certification <br /> requirements of this clause, if it is disputed either as to <br /> <br /> liability or amount or is not acted upon in a reasonable time. <br /> 5 <br /> _ <br /> <br />
