Per Stacy Aune concerning this issue, her understanding is that a manual
entry will be kicked out unless a cost center is entered for applicable accounts. If you have entries to accounts 60000000-79999999 you should replace the profit center with a cost center for entries with a posting date on or after 11/1/00. Most profit centers have one or more related cost centers assigned to them per the Standard Hierarchy Report but some do not. If your chosen profit center does not have a related cost center let me know. Keep in mind that this is only for accts. 60000000-79999999 and most of those accounts are not used by our group. However, we do use some of the accounts such as 62000000 Interest Income - Third Party, among others. Cost Centers are only needed for these accounts for entries with a posting date of 11/1/00 or later. If you are doing 10/31/00 close entries, do them the same as you have been. Since we are in the middle of 10/00 close and this issue does not affect 10/31/00 entries, I will remind everyone in November to review this issue for their entries. Let me know if you have any questions.

We should have profit centers set up for all of our companies, but I am not sure about cost centers. Please refer to the Standard Hierarchy Report. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks. ---------------------- Forwarded by Hope Vargas/HOU/ECT on 10/30/2000 07:05 PM --------------------------- Stacey A Aune 10/30/2000 03:43 PM To: Pam Becton/HOU/ECT@ECT, Marnie Lamb/NA/Enron@Enron, Karry Kendall/HOU/ECT@ECT, Yvette Miroballi/HOU/ECT@ECT, Cheryl Dawes/CAL/ECT@ECT, Todd Warwick/HOU/ECT@ECT, Faith Killen/HOU/ECT@ECT, Troy Klussmann/HOU/ECT@ECT, Jim Pond/Corp/Enron@Enron, Jody Pierce/HOU/ECT@ECT, Susan Helton/HOU/ECT@ECT, Sarah Brown/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Hope Vargas/HOU/ECT@ECT, Nadia A Rodriguez/NA/Enron@ENRON, Michael S Galvan/HOU/ECT@ECT, Greg Whiting/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Stephen Thatcher/Corp/Enron@Enron Subject: Spreadsheet for Review - New Cost Elements (60000000-79999999) As most of you may already know, beginning November 1st (Sorry, we got this Friday afternoon!), the 60000000-79999999 range of accounts will now require a cost center instead of a profit center when using those accounts. Some of the accounts that this range includes is Interest Income/Expense, Gain/Loss on Foreign Currency, and Gain/Losses on Disposition of Assets. Unfortunately, the processes that are run automatically by the ISC that eventually book to these accounts, will hit a default cost center on each company if one is not specified. This is very similar to the derivation pooling profit center 12951. The ISC is giving us the opportunity to specify by company/account what the default cost center should be for each account. Please review the attached spreadsheet below. It contains a row for each company and shows the default cost center the ISC has chosen for each account. Please respond back to me with the following: 1) Confirmation that you have reviewed and agree with the cost center that has been chosen for each account on your company -OR- 2) An attachment with the changes you desire the ISC to make with regards to your default cost center by account These changes will affect any posting date of November 1st or later. For those of you who have FX revalution on your companies, this change will have an effect in October close when the FX program is run after the last workday. I need a response from those companies with FX revalution ASAP. For the remainder of the companies, I would like a response by Friday, November 10th. Thanks for your efforts in advance and sorry for the short notice, Stacey ------------------------ Braden Sewell@ENRON 10/27/2000 01:22 PM To: Allen W Ueckert/NA/Enron@Enron, Allison Millan/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Amy Spoede/HOU/ECT@ECT, Bart Myers/Corp/Enron@Enron, Chaundra Perry/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Chris Musngi/NA/Enron@ENRON, conniem@nepco.com, David Andrews/Corp/Enron@Enron, David McEllin/FGT/Enron@ENRON, David Vandor/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Dawn Derr/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Deborah Pritt/NA/Enron@ENRON, Donna Burns/NPNG/Enron@ENRON, Elise Clark/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Igor Miotto/SA/Enron@Enron, Je Chang/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Jeff Smith/HOU/ECT@ECT, Jill Erwin/HOU/ECT@ECT, Jim Davoli/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Judi Carter/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Judy Lin/GPGFIN/Enron@ENRON, Julia Pittman/GPGFIN/Enron@ENRON, Keith Simper/HOU/ECT@ECT, kimc@nepco.com, Krysti Knight/HOU/ECT@ECT, Leo Paige/Enron Communications@Enron Communications, Luis Juarros/SA/Enron@Enron, Odair Ribeiro/SA/Enron@Enron, Pamela Rush/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Patricia Anderson/HOU/ECT@ECT, Patricia Shannon/HOU/ECT@ECT, Patrick Dominguez/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Paula J Parrish/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Robert D Smith/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, ronp@nepco.com, Sheila Miller/NA/Enron@ENRON, Stephen Schwarzbach/Corp/Enron@Enron, Steve Frazier/HOU/EES@EES, Thach C Phan/Corp/Enron@Enron, Thao Nguyen/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Thomas Meers/GPGFIN/Enron@ENRON, Todd Ross/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT cc: Stacey A Aune/HOU/ECT@ECT, Maya Beyhum/LON/ECT@ECT, Duane Fritz/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Randy Parman/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Brandee Sanborn/Corp/Enron@ENRON Subject: Spreadsheet for Review - New Cost Elements (60000000-79999999) I promise this is the last note about this today. The attached spreadsheet has all the default cost centers we have loaded in the system for the accounts listed below. We have made an initial attempt to do this for you. It is not required to use the same default cost center for each of these accounts on a company code. Previously when these defaults were assigned at the profit center level, you were only allowed one default profit center for a company code. We are not encouraging multiple default cost centers for these accounts, but we just want to offer the flexibility. Please review the attached file, and forward me any changes you would like made. You may only need to review the fields in yellow & green. I have already sent you a note regarding the "No CC" fields that are in red. We are only entering the default cost centers for the accounts that had activity on your company codes in year 2000. That is why there are a lot of empty fields you do not have to worry about. We will continue to add and modify the cost center defaults on an as needed basis. Use this information to help you analyze the spreadsheet: Accounts in black The accounts in black were already cost elements and already had the default cost centers assigned. Accounts in blue- The accounts in blue are the new cost elements. If there was an existing default cost center for a company, we have already assigned it to the new accounts in blue. Yellow We selected a default cost center from the values assigned to the default profit center for that company code. Green There was not a default profit center so we reviewed the cost centers on that company and selected the one we thought was most appropriate. Red This company code did not have any cost centers. I have already asked you for these in a previous email. If you make changes, please move them to a spreadsheet by themselves or make them easy for us to identify in this spreadsheet. Thanks again for all your help. Accounts posted to automatically by the system * Already a cost element before this new process.
