I submitted a show quite a while back, already received the products, and on PP3 the show still shows Not Ready in the status column. Any suggestions?

Did one of the credit cards expire in the meantime? That's changed the status on some of my older shows.

Yikes, I haven't heard anything about that... but the show has never said submitted in that column from the day I put it in. I remember it said success when I submitted it back on 3/2.

Can you click on the finish tab in the show and see if anything comes up? It could be something you accidently altered after sending in the show and it is throwing the money off or something similar...

I did click the finish button and it had no problems, and I thought about actually clicking the submit button again (wondering if it will come up and say it was already submitted, and then adjust itself??) But I don't want to get charged twice for the show....

I wouldn't worry about it if they already received their products. I have a couple of shows that have that. One was because of a credit card number expiring (after I sent the show in so it's no problem for me to worry about) & a couple others because I was using my laptop & my main computer for PP & a couple of times forgot to save to my flash drive when I updated & then rebooted from my flash drive so the sent info wasn't there. I've just ignored it b/c HO already received it & the people already had their products, but now that I'm using P3 (just on my laptop so I don't have that problem anymore!) it has that red dot with not ready for a few shows.

I guess I am not too worried about it, but when I look at the reports for sales, it doesn't include it in Show sales, only in non-show sales?

Oh well...thanks for the input though!

Was it a cooking show or a catalog show? Catalog shows are considered non-shows. Only cooking shows & wedding showers are considered shows for show sales.

Oh hmmm, I think you are right pamperedgirl. The non-show total looks like a catalog show and part of another catalog show not submitted yet.

So I guess I shouldn't worry about it, I am just being anal and wanting the little blue check mark in the box next to it!
Thanks!
 
Just book more shows and eventually it'll get pushed off the bottom of the visible list, then you won't have to worry about it. :)

Frequently Asked Questions

What does "Submitted Show-Still Says Not Ready" mean?

This message indicates that your show has been submitted, but it hasn't yet been processed by the system. It may take some time for the show to be fully updated and ready for further actions.

How long does it typically take for a submitted show to be ready?

The processing time for a submitted show can vary, but it usually takes anywhere from a few hours to 24 hours. If it remains in this status for longer, you may want to check for any issues.

What should I do if my show remains in "Not Ready" status for more than 24 hours?

If your show is still showing as "Not Ready" after 24 hours, it’s advisable to contact Pampered Chef support for assistance. They can help identify any issues that may be causing the delay.

Can I still make changes to my show while it says "Not Ready"?

No, you cannot make changes to a show that is in "Not Ready" status. Once it is processed and updated to "Ready," you will be able to make any necessary adjustments.

Is there a way to expedite the processing of my submitted show?

Unfortunately, there is no way to expedite the processing of a submitted show. The system processes shows in the order they are received, so patience is key while waiting for it to update.
