Giving Thanks for Our AP Temps

Thank you, AP temps!

You know what it's like:   you take PTO, knowing you'll have to wade through a pile of accumulated emails upon your return.  But this past Thanksgiving holiday, the accounts payable team (and our vendors) did not have to work through an avalanche of emails when they returned from break, thanks to our wonderful team of AP temps!
As many of our readers know, we've had a diligent team of temp workers helping with invoicing while the Procurement team searches for a permanent solution (see more on the Procurement Optimization effort on the blog).  Since their arrival, the temp team has kept up with the payables inbox, providing great service for our vendors and allowing the Procurement team time to focus on other pressing issues affecting both vendors and our UVA customers.   
The Temp Team went above and beyond while the University took Thanksgiving break.  The team divided and conquered to keep the payables inbox from getting backed up, while still taking time off for the holiday.  When everyone came back from break, they were shocked to find the inbox was at ZERO! 
We're so grateful to this team for their dedication!
The AP Temp Team consists of Brittany Ripple, Sarah Outten, Becky Clore, and Dani Kamb.
