where the items, description, quanity, and price is..... there are yellow triangles.... what does that mean and what do i do to take care of that?
 
Usually, when you click on "finish" at the top, the first page will tell you what each triangle means. Sometimes (usually for me) the triangles are because you didn't put in the way the customer paid - check, cash, credit card. Sometimes it's because you didn't put in all the numbers to a phone number or some part of the contact information isn't complete. Could be first or last name not entered.

it doesn't show up on the finalize page.. it is only on the items page where you enter the items, where the quanity, item number and other stuff is?
 
is something backordered? Did you enter all the guest info correctly. Is payment entered? Is this happening on the host order or guest orders too?

only on host order... the situation is that my host had a $500 show this month and order had the $140 in FPV.... i wonder if it has to do with the amount of stuff she ordered
 
She should be able to order as much as she wants. Did she order stones? Did you use the special codes for stones. Now I'm just guessing.
 
Was all of their information included? Address, phone ....

Yellow Triangles mean a warning but does not prevent finalizing your order. Something in the hosts order may not have been in their "best interest". P3 tries to look to see if the consultant missed something.
 
Is the show dated correctly? (Just guessing too.):D

Please give examples? this might be it! because this was my mom doing a show and she wanted me to oder some things using the fpv that she got?
 
Is that what one of the triangles is saying? I've never seen that before.
 
Would it be a better deal to use something else as a half price option? Have you tried different combinations?

it doesn't say anything, you know where the items are listed after you have put them in.. it is above there , in the boxes that say Item # , quanity, half price, name, price, and total... that is where the triangles are and they don't say anything
 
Did you enter any stoneware?
