With the higher volume, we have=20 reviewed our processes in order to continue our rapid payment cycle. Although we encourage vendors to address their invoices to individual=20 employees, they often mail invoices directly to Accounts Payable. At times= =20 they fail to list the individual who uses the pager or cell phone. In thes= e=20 cases we return the invoice to the vendor.

The high level of=20 employee movement among jobs and locations at Enron has made this=20 increasingly challenging. Either way, we end up doing something less=20 productive than paying invoices.
