Fundraiser Hosting: Why is the "Add Host Order" Button Grayed Out?

[bridgetbakes]

Ok, so I am submitting my first Fundraiser. But I am confused: How come the "Add Host Order" button is blackened out? I know the host/chairperson does not receive normal host benefits, but they still are able to purchase the Monthly Host special. If I add the host in as a regular guest, it will not let me order her the Host Special.

Am I missing something?

I add the host order by clicking on the name of the host which is usually the chairperson and listed on the first line on P3 and then put in her order and monthly host special if he/she orders it by clicking on items. HTH

You need to click on the 'chairperson' button. Located just above the Name/Address/Gift Certificates/Payments tabs. Sort of in the middle of the screen on P3

Actually, I am still on Pampered Partner. (Haven't switched to P3 yet but definitely will after Nat'l Conference!)

Normally I would just click on "Add Host Order" but it is grayed out. The only other option to add an order is to click on "Add Guest" and that option will not allow me to give the chairperson the Host special.

I never encountered that problem as I always put that information in when I set up the show so by the time I put the chairperson's order in that is already checked off.

It has been quite sometime since I used Pampered Partner. Don't you still have to enter the chairperson's name when you set up the fundraiser in that program? Check out how you entered it. I know on P3 you list the organization name and you also list the chairperson.

Oh sorry, it's been so long since I used PP that I don't remeber how. Carolyn (dannyzmom) is still using PP so you might want to PM her about it.

Thanks for that Linda. I have sent her a PM.

Anyone else still using PP that could help me? :blushing:

When entering a guest there is a box marked chairperson to click above "find contacts" (which is next to where you enter the person's name). You can only use that box once - no co-hosts on fund-raisers.

I PM'd you back - Beth's reply is exactly what I sent you
