Subject: New Paycheck Information!

Introducing your first SAP Paycheck!

This is the first payroll processed in SAP for all employees paid out of 
Corporate Payroll. You may notice some changes in the way information is 
reflected on your pay advice, the most common are itemized below.

What,s Different?
? Your +home, cost center will be displayed at the top of the pay advice. 
This is your department number as designated in the HR and financial modules 
of SAP.

? Any earnings descriptions that start with a +P, represent earning types 
reported in the prior period. For instance, if you reported vacation time for 
the July 1st-15th pay period, it will be reflected on your July 31st pay 
advice as +PVacation,.

? Flex dollars will appear on the earnings section of the pay advice instead 
of as a credit in the deduction section. The various benefit deductions will 
remain itemized in the deduction section.

? If you transfer between Enron companies during the year, your year)to-date 
totals will carry forward to the new company pay advice. Previously, the 
year-to-date totals started over when transferred to another company. This 
change will provide your total Enron earnings and deduction amounts on your 
pay advice throughout the year.  (Note that your W2 at the end of the year 
will reflect your earnings by company).

? For salaried employees, any reported exception time (e.g. vacation, sick 
day, etc.) will be reflected on the earnings section with hours only, the 
related dollar amount will be included in the +Salary, earnings type. 

? For any other information or further explanations regarding your payroll
