INPUT WORKSHEET CHANGES:

The RSC Board of Directors formed an Input Worksheet Task Force to review the forms for all eight listing categories in the PPMLS Tempo system, and to make recommendations to update the forms to reflect how business is conducted today.

• RSC Input Worksheet Task Force met from November 2004, March 2005.
• The recommendations were reviewed and approved by the RSC.
• Recommendations were posted on the PPAR website for member review and feedback in September 2005.
• The recommended changes are tentatively scheduled for implementation in the April 25, 2006 publish.
• Revised input worksheets will be available prior to the April 25 publish.  Worksheets will be posted under Quick Links at http://pikespeakrsc.com.
• In conjunction with the publish, the PPMLS Tempo views and printouts will be updated to reflect the changes.

 Special Note:  The Add/Edit module will be off-line for a period of time while the new data files and tables are installed.  Therefore, the ability to add or edit listings, upload photos or other media will not be available during this time; probably the evening before up to noon of the publish date.  The exact dates and times will be announced in a PPMLS Update, and on the PPMLS Tempo system login page as we get closer to the April 25 publish.
