Bathrooms, Remarks    03/02/2006

 

UNDERSTANDING BATHROOMS:

Understanding how bathrooms are displayed in the PPMLS Tempo system is easy if you break it into these three sections.

 
1. ADD LISTING:
    • The request for bathroom information is presented on the input worksheet as:

Type Upper Bath:  T,5,H (separate values by a comma, no space)

Type Main Bath:  H

Type Lower Bath:

Type Basement Bath:  T

Rough-Ins:

 

    • The user should input values for each question using the choices:  5 (5 piece), F (Full), T (3/4), H (Half), and R (Rough-in).
    • For example, on the Type Upper Bath the user may put T,5,F representing one 3/4, one 5-piece, and one full bath 

2.  AUTO-CALCULATIONS BY PPMLS TEMPO:

  • As part of the Add Listing function the PPMLS Tempo system will then calculate totals for each level
    • In the example above, PPMLS Tempo would calculate that there are a total of 3 bathrooms on the Upper Level. These totals are viewable in the Edit function
  • PPMLS Tempo will also auto-calculate the total types of bathrooms.  In the example above it would calculate a total of two 3/4 bathrooms.  This information is also viewable in the Edit function.
  • The system will not allow you to edit the fields that are auto-calculated!

 3.  PPMLS TEMPO PRINTOUTS:

  • When a user prints out a listing, PPMLS Tempo will combine the information for the total for each level and the type for each level.  Therefore, you will see something like: Upper:  3 T5F.  Underneath it will also display the total types of bathrooms, such as 3/4: 2.
    •  MLS#546915 for example, shows Baths: 5. 
      • There are 3 baths on the Upper level (one 3/4, one 5-piece, and one Full). 
      • There is one bath on the Main level (one Half). 
      • There are no baths on the Lower level (0 N). 
      • There is one bath in the Basement (one 3/4). 
      • There is no Rough-Ins
      • There is one 5pc, one Full, two 3/4, and one Half. 

REMARKS SCRUBBER:

  • The PPMLS Tempo system will automatically "scrub" Property Description remarks for unauthorized text which is then deleted by the system upon submission of the listing.
  • The scrubber list is located under at http://members.ppar.com under Quick Links and Section 29, i. 2 and 3.
  • Your listing will still be processed even though text may have been removed by the system. 
  • It is important for you to proof your listing after it has been submitted to Tempo to ensure that the remarks still make sense.
  • Unauthorized text that is not detected by remarks scrubber will be manually identified by RSC staff, with a follow-up email sent to the listing broker to remove the text.
  • If not removed within two business days the listing will be temporarily Withdrawn from the PPMLS Tempo system.
