New Market Force Website

March 25, 2017 04:17PM
I used the new Market Force website yesterday to report a shop. With the old system I could save PDF of my report for my files. With the new website I can save but all of the pages are blank. Does anyone else have issues with this?

I tried to print to Cute PDF and also got all blank pages, 18 of them.

Why don't your write your narrative in Word? Most time writing a narrative out is sometimes better than "report writing as we go along". If you are preforming many narrative shops in a day. Perhaps one can use that "cellphone" to record to type feature. It does come in handy when deciphering a narrative plus it is always available or copy. smiling smiley

While this advice is true, the OP is asking specifically about Market Force, which has little narrative. Saving the narrative is not his question. He wants to know how to save the entire MF report after he completes it.

If the OP printed out the guidelines then he already has the question that must be answered. Very few of MF questions need narratives. Why can't OP write those answers out in word. (Copying and pasting) who has not done that. Thereby having the question per guideline and the narrative that was provided. Apparently, the idea of saving by PDF is not available. Sometimes one has to work with what they have, instead of trying to reinvent something. Save it by placing the narrative in the printed out guideline. I don't have issues saving my submitted report. smiling smiley

Plus, the OP has not been back to inform the board if they had found a solution.

Still no solution, Market Force said they are having their developer looking into the issue.

I retain a pdf of each and every report I submit; with or without narrative. I'm just that anal.

Shopping up and down the Colorado Rocky Mountain front range.

Thank you Billy for following up and for suggesting to MF that they fix this issue you found. It is much better from my point of view when things are easy for us instead of our having to do a workaround like some of the "fixes" suggested above. In reality, the pay is low enough that I do not want to make even one extra keystroke in some of these jobs. And yes, I know I do not need to accept these jobs but I also know it is not that difficult for a company to make changes if they discover there is an easier way of doing something that will help their shoppers. This helps everyone instead of each and every person having to do a work around.
