I have a fundraiser going on now that I have set up in my PWS but not on P3 yet -

When I set up the FR it has a little box, add this show to P3 and I clicked it - but it didn't show up in P3... am I doing something wrong ? I thought if I clicked that box it would process the information for the show over to p3.

Do I have to set up the show in p3 and then the orders will go over? Not sure what that feature is.
 
After you check that box, you have to sync the two. It's the button with the two arrows on the far right of the P3 menu bar.

It worked!!! Thanks so much Deb - now do I have to do that each time I enter a show on PWS??
 
Yes, if you want to bring the orders down. They have to be established in both places, then you can sync them.

No, review them on the website, then sync and they will show up.

They have to be reviewed on the website.

Sorry Janet, I did review 2 on the pws BEFORE i sync'd them and then 2 after - only the 2 after are showing up to be copied on p3.
 
I've tried to add 2 different shows from my PWS to my P3 and it says I have done something that can't be done, so I just do it manually! It still will pull the orders as long as the names are the same on the shows.
