Enumeration question

["Dubin, David" <David -dot- Dubin -at- sage -dot- com>]

Colleagues,
Our Curriculum Standards Committee is debating corporate standards and I
have a question of you. One of the open points is whether to use a period
after an enumerative level. In documenting processes, we use numbers to show
steps. In the example below, I show two sets of processes; one with numbers
and periods, the other with numbers without periods. Does anyone have any
research or can point me to any research that would indicate if using a
period with the enumerative symbol is better (or worse) than not using a
period?
1.   Do this.                1   Do this.
2.   Do this next.           2   Do this next.
3.   Do this last            3   Do this last

I appreciate any assistance that you can provide.
Regards, 
David
