How to Set Up Fundraisers on the PPC

Summary

Manager calls in unable to set FSKs up for fundraisers.

Solution

To solve this issue, do the following:

1. Log into PPC – via the Parafait POS (No action is being taken inside the Parafait software, but this gets you out of the screensaver and into the computer itself.)
2. Access the Windows Start menu. Swipe from the left side of the screen and select the windows icon in the lower left corner. 
   
3. Under the Parafait Folder in the Start menu – Select Parafait Management Studio to open it.
   
4. Enter the login information or tap a card with the appropriate access level.
   
5. Once in the Parafait Management Studio, select the Products Category from the left side of the screen and then select the Products item.
6. In the Products Set-up Menu, select non-Card Sales.
   

7. Under the Edit column, select the ellipsis (…) next to the Fundraiser product under Product Name (NOT Display Group).
   

   8. From the bottom row of buttons in the Product Details menu, select Calendar.         
            

   9.    In the Product Calendar- Fundraiser menu, ensure that the top row has “Every Day” under the Day column selected, “To Time” set to 0:00am, and the Show/Hide box is not checked.
   a.    This is the default setting and should not be changed because it allows the system to remove the Fundraiser button at the end of every day. 
   b.    It must always be the first line in the product calendar.
   10.    In the second row, select the date of the fundraising even, then change the from time to 9:00 am, the make sure the Show/Hide box is checked.
   11.    Select Save. You can exit out of the Parafait Management Studio entirely and return to Parafait POS.   
    

   12.         Once completed, the new product will show on the Kiosk and ask Guests before every transaction if they are attending a fundraiser. If the Guest Selects OK, it will add the Fundraiser item onto the check and the school organization will get credit for the funds.
