Big Weekend!

Wow!  What a weekend for sales contracts...holy cow!

2 in Bridgewater - Go Maggie!
1 in Sunset - Go Kathy!
1 in Holly Pointe - Go Laurel!
1 in Fairfield - Go Renee!

Few Stella notes from the weekend...

- Congrats to Renee for being the FIRST to write a real contract in Stella!  I just went through it and it looks legit!

- Runner Up to Laurel - Who tried to put in the Grimmuald contract...but was baffled by the base price at 264k...totally understandable!  It turns out we had loaded the "A" as 264k and the "C" was a 5k option...making the 269k Laurel was looking for, but in the heat of the moment I'm sure it was maddening!  Furthermore...I didn't have the right LOT in there for you...that's a problem!  Oh well.

Laurel/Maggie/Renee Notes:

- Help us be sure the right lots are set up and available for you...I want to get this right this week for all communities.  Please check each one and be sure you can pre-sale the ones you think you should.

- Elevations are Options - Look for those prices after you select the base plan and lot.

- Bridgewater Towns - Maggie, Let's bag Stella for the Towns and Parkside.  Roll with paper.  We'll focus our efforts on the other communities.  Maybe we'll bring Stella online for the next few Parkside starts?

- I've updated Yonkers Forest with a bunch of plans from a bunch of communities, so you guys can have a good time practicing with plans you recognize.

- Please also go into your REAL communities and practice there too...checking plans, lots, pricing, etc. Don't submit and print, but you can practice here also.

A$/Dan/Allison - There are a few screwy things behind the scenes that I have requested fixes for:

1.  FAI-0009 - The custom options are showing in the contract, but not in the Settings Tab...for some crazy reason! I'm working to get this resolved, but I'm not sure we can edit them.

2.  FAI-0009 - The error report that you will see when you go to "ratify" it shows 4 custom options, but the contract only has three, I bet that one was deleted, but the error report wasn't aware.  Probably tied to issue 1 above.

3.  ALL - The "Options Selected" total on the selection sheet cover is not adding up properly.  The bottom-line total is working just fine, but the options selected is wacky.  This will be fixed this week.

4.  Pricing updates - Right now any base plan pricing and option pricing updates are NOT being pushed to the specs in progress...PROBLEM.  We will get this fixed this week, but just  heads up.  Ideally, when we make a price change, the specs are all changed automatically...We can always issue a credit if we choose to, but by default, spec pricing will change when we change base pricing and option pricing.

5.  New Sales in Stella - Let's get these in Stella this week:

- HPE-0202
- SUN-0710
- HPE-0080
- FAI-0008

This way, when they get to the design center, they will be all set up and ready to go!

PS - I realize a lot of this requires some discussion, please have a bunch of conversations about all this during the next few days...let's not do it all on email!  Thanks, |JG
