I'm entering a catalog show for a customer who just had a cooking show in October. In the PP+ it shows her as the host but where I would enter her past host discount number, it says not applicable. Also, where it says ship to, Host is shaded out and I can't select it. It is checked on Direct to Contact Address.

Any ideas how to fix this?
 
If she is the host of the catalog show, then she cant get the past host discount. The ship to is correct. It does that for the host (picks contract address or ship to address). The other customers can ship to host.

So past host discounts only apply to cooking shows?
 
No. The host isn't eligible to use her past host discount at her own show. The show discount is better so she gets that one. Now if she puts an order in as a guest at her show (and pays the shipping as a guest) she does get the 10% on that order.
 
She is getting the host benefits from the catalog show with her order, ie. discount of 15% or more. It is not combined with an additional past host discount of 10%. If she booked the catalog show off of her Oct. show, then she can have a separate guest order on her catalog show as the past host and get one of the host specials on that order and 10% off on that order, though her discount is going to be higher on the host order.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if the host discount is not applying to the catalog show entries?

If the host discount is not applying, first ensure that the host's account is properly set up and that the discount is active for the show. Check the catalog show settings to confirm that the discount has been correctly applied. If everything appears correct, try refreshing the page or logging out and back in. If the issue persists, contact Pampered Chef support for further assistance.

How can I fix shipping issues for catalog show entries?

To resolve shipping issues, verify that the shipping address entered for each order is complete and accurate. Ensure that the shipping method selected is appropriate for the delivery location. If there are still problems, check if there are any restrictions or additional charges for shipping to the specified address. If needed, reach out to customer service for help in correcting the shipping details.

What should I do if a guest's order is not showing up in the catalog show?

If a guest's order is missing from the catalog show, first confirm that the order was successfully submitted and that the guest received a confirmation email. Check the show’s order list to see if the order is listed under a different name or email. If you still cannot find it, ask the guest to resubmit their order or contact Pampered Chef support for assistance in locating the order.

How can I ensure that the host receives their full discount on all eligible items?

To ensure the host receives their full discount, review the catalog show entries and confirm that all eligible items are included in the order. Make sure the discount is applied at checkout and that the host's order meets the minimum requirements for the discount. If there are discrepancies, adjust the order accordingly or consult with customer service to rectify the situation.

What steps should I take if I need to change the shipping address after an order has been placed?

If you need to change the shipping address after an order has been placed, contact Pampered Chef customer service as soon as possible. Provide them with the order details and the new shipping address. Changes may be limited based on the order status, so it's important to act quickly to ensure the order is redirected correctly.
