What is Cluster Management..Something for Directors I assume?????
 
It's a good thing some of us have used computers and software and have an idea on where to go to look for things! I truly cannot believe they sent it out without instructions,etc.

BTW, Cluster Management is for Directors--not us commoners!

HAHAHAHA..Well I don't miss what I never had so I am good. Carolyn you'll be ok. I promise. You cleaned your desk and everything worked out....LOL
By the way..you haven't mentioned..are you still clean???
 
I am very curious if anything is put in tomorrow's weekly bites about this.

OH yes ...for sure. They have to. I am glad we knew how to keep everyone informed. I just knew I had to do a thread and start with instructions...LOL
 
So many mixed messages from people who have talked to tech support. I really think that if they didn't want us to use it we would have gotten an e-mail blast stating not to. I can't find a reason not to use it. I figured it out and entered a show. I just need a push to submit!
 
I'm glad you started this thread. It has helped quite a few people. I even called a few people and walked them it over the phone as they were frustrated.

Hey, Rebecca--did you submit on PP3 yet?


No, not yet....I'm waiting to submit my supply order until Feb. 1st and I'm supposed to close a show tomorrow night. I'm pretty sure I'll do it on P3 though. Sometimes you just gotta go for it!:)
 
That's right--you said you were closing it tomorrow night. I am going to do it right now and let you know how it goes. She brought me cash so I can easily hit the bank in the morning to make my deposit.
 
Woo Hoo! You go Harriet! Please do tell us how it goes. Maybe we should start a thread for P3...better yet, maybe Greg can start a new area (I don't know what it's called) for P3. That way, when we start using it more, we can help each other with specific issues.

For example, have you found a way to view tasks with the customer's name showing? I know if you hover over a task it shows you, but I don't want to hover over each one to find it!:)
 
I did it! Very user friendly. It even let me know that one order was missing the guest special that qualified for it! I say go for it tomorrow night! You do need to be online to send which I am anyway. I haven't received an e-mail confirmation yet as someone else stated that they did earlier but it did tell me what time it was received in HO.
 
Way to go! I'll definately have to use it tomorrow night. I LOVE that it gives us all of these reminders....maybe it will cut down on us calling HO for all of our dumb errors! LOL!
 
I don't have anything in my task area yet. Was going to work on that this week so I am not 100% sure. But if you go to help and click on contents and then task I think I saw something about that earlier when I was flipping through.
 
I'll have to look in the help section. I used it earlier to find out about past host numbers automatically showing up.
 
Apprently it does update them automatically...I don't know when it happened, but all of a sudden tonight they were there!:confused:
 
I'll keep you posted if I get anything from HO on it. It does walk you through everything. It makes you check the shipping for each order as to where it is to be shipped (host or direct), reminds you about host using all of the benefits,etc. You should like it!
 
I noticed that too tonight about the host numbers. I forgot to tell you that when I was finalizing to submit it also updated.
 
Do you mean it automatically assigned a host number to the show you are just submitting?
 
I just got my e-mail confirmation from HO..This is what was on the bottom of the e-mail:

You will receive an e-mail confirming shipment of your show when all items have been shipped. If you have questions about this order, please contact [email protected].

Pretty cool. The e-mail even gives you a web reference number!!!!!!!
 
Very Cool!!!!!!!! :d
 
It updated the program. I'll have to check about the new host number. I don't think it did that yet, probably too soon.
 
Did it tell you it was updating?

By the way...what are you still doing up? It's late there! Do you stay up this late every night? :)
 
No, not yet. I didn't think it would do that. It did earlier update the other numbers that weren't there.

OOOOO Harriet...You stayed up to get that star I see...LOL
 
No, I don't stay up much later than this. I was too involved. Now I need to back up PP3 so I don't have to worry about losing my work. My DH went to bed 3/4 hour ago and I told him I'd be in shortly--oh well. Have a good night and I'll catch up with you tomorrow. Thanks for your support!
 
Yes and no Jill. I got that show submitted too!
 
Good night Harriet! I'm proud of you!
