I just got my first order on my PWS. It was for last night's show. I did the web site synch on PP+ but her order doesn't show up. Am I supposed to manually enter her order in? I thought it should show up in my host's show. Does it take a few hours to catch up with itself, or is there something else I need to do?

Oh....the girl who orderd is showing up in my contact list in PP+, though.
 
If it's from a show, then you need to mark it as reviewed from the web (logged in through CC). Then go into the show in P3 and click the "Get PWS orders" button (it might be get online orders - you'll figure it out). Tell the program which host name to look under on your PWS, and continue.
 
It will import everything for you: items, payments! AWESOME!

I should have waited for your response. I printed it out from the site and then entered everything manually. Thanks, though. I looked on my PP+ and the button is "copy PWS orders" Good thing I went and did it. The online order had the items being shipped directly to her, instead of to the host (who only lives five minutes from the customer). I just sent her an email asking if she wanted to save the xtra money on shipping. Thanks ladies!

Glad to know this. I've been doing everything manually up to this point. :balloon: So much to learn. :D

Frequently Asked Questions

Why isn't my first PWS order showing up?

There could be several reasons why your first Pampered Chef Website (PWS) order isn't showing up. Common issues include delays in processing, incorrect order confirmation, or technical glitches. Make sure to check your email for any confirmation messages or updates from Pampered Chef.

How long does it take for my first order to appear?

What should I do if my order confirmation email is missing?

Could there be a problem with my payment method?

Yes, issues with your payment method can prevent your order from processing correctly. Ensure that your payment information is accurate and that there are sufficient funds available. If there are any issues, you should receive a notification from Pampered Chef.
