I have a fundraiser that has gone over $600 and I can't get PP to take 2 host specials for the chairperson. Any ideas?
 
Call HO. Their tech support will help you. Have you updated recently? Whenever
I have had problems, in the past, that is the first thing tech support suggests.
 
There is only ONE host special for fundraisers. Read the fine print on the flyer.

Well, I did it. While waiting forever on the phone with Tech Support, I downloaded a newer version of PP (11/3), and this took care of it. Debbie, the flier says to me that fundraisers are indeed eligible for both as long as their sales are over $500 (mine was over $600), and both host specials were finally accepted after the update -- they are the same as other hosts, I believe. Anyway, thanks for all of your input. I have now submitted the show successfully.
 
Hmm...they must have changed that then. Or I just am imagining things, which could be true! :D

Whichever, I'm glad they were accepted. The director only wanted one, and I am now getting my flutted stone!
