INPUT WORKSHEET CONVERSION 

The changes to the PPMLS input worksheets that were recommended by Task Force and approved by the RSC Board of Directors are scheduled for implementation on June 6, 2006.  A brief summary of publish activities is provided below. 

We encourage you to read the documents below for detailed information about the publish and how it will impact your Saved Custom Searches and Custom reports.

 Tempo Data Changes              Tempo Publish Announcement

 

  • Tuesday, May 30:
    • The above document Tempo System Publish Announcement provides detail information on the publish.  Please read it.
       
    • The above document Tempo Data Changes is a spreadsheet which lists fields that will be deleted or changed as part of the database conversion.  Users that have incorporated these fields into a Saved Custom Search or Custom Report will need to update their Saved Custom Searches or Custom Reports after the database changes have been implemented on June 6 and the system returns to "read and write" mode.
       
  • Monday, June 5:
    • 3:00 p.m. - the PPMLS Tempo System goes into �read only� mode.  This means that users will not be able to �write� to the database; i.e. you cannot Add/Edit listings, upload photos or other media, add or change Saved Custom Search or Custom Report parameters.
       
    • 3:30 p.m. - the revised Input Worksheets and Change Notice forms will be posted at Quick Links on the http://pikespeakrsc.com site.  Do not continue to use the old forms; they will not match the database!
       
    • 4:00 p.m. - users that have a Saved Custom Search or Custom Report that incorporates a field that is affected by the database changes will be sent an email that identifies the name of the affected Saved Custom Search or Custom Report, and the affected fields. The email will be sent to the email address stored in your PPMLS Tempo system profile.  The subject line of the email will be "Instructions to Modify Your Saved Search".
  • Tuesday, June 6:
    • 4:00 a.m. - the process that sends the IDX/IDX2 data files to REALTOR.com and other entities will not run.
       
    • 5:00 a.m. - the process that sends listing matches through the Prospect Auto-notify process and Client Web will not run.
       
    • 6:00 a.m. - staff review of database changes.  The PPMLS Tempo system will be placed back into "read and write" mode after staff has verified that the database changes were correctly installed. 
       
  • Wednesday, June 7:
    • 4:00 a.m. - the process that send the IDX/IDX2 data files to REALTOR.com and other entities will resume.
       
    • 5:00 a.m. - the process that sends listing matches through the Prospect Auto-notify and Client Web will resume.

Thank you for your patience during this transition.  It has been many years since a major over-haul of the Input Worksheets were done.  These changes, recommended by working REALTORS® just like you, will update the worksheets to reflect how business is performed in 2006.
