I want to run a report of everyone who has purchased cookware (especially a set!) and call them to do a quick August catty/online show.

I know we've had some cookware host specials and we had that 60% off anything month too. Has anyone compiled those special #s?

Just thought I'd ask before I recreate the wheel.
 
No. I called tech support about this yesterday. Told them that I thought it would be great if they'd include cookware host & guest specials in the cookware category when we run reports on P3 - he acted like I was nuts to request such a thing. If you don't know the numbers you have to run a P3 report and click the Host Special and the Guest Special buttons then sift through your umpteen million pages to find what you are looking for.

I know! I told him that I personally thought it would be so much easier for them to make a programming change to harvest this info than for us to go in and manually search for it when we wanted it. I said it would be great if they could link the host and guest specials to the category that they belonged in for our searches - made sense to me :)

I have looked for a certain line of products by putting in the catalog number and the host and guest special numbers in (of course we have to know the month the special was held so we could find the numbers in old CN's or in the P3 records). The report I got only had the information about those who ordered those items so it wasn't that many pages.

I agree it's a pain to find all the times something is on special and of course it's easy to miss some with this method but the stoneware for instance is usually September and either January or February so that cuts down the number of months we would need to check.

It would not be that difficult for them to write a program that would pick those things up. Well, at least they now know we'd like that...
