New Monthly Eligibility List function
NOTICE:
THIS IS NOT FOR CORPORATE ACCOUNTS! This function is for individual and business
upgrades ONLY - Eligibility data for CORPORATE accounts
is only available on ISC that will produce a “Full Worksheet”
This new Eligibility List function is
designed to enhance the “Run Account Group” function. The Run Account Group
function is still available - a Full Worksheet is required for Corporate,
Government, and some other account types.
The New Eligibility List function will
obtain current upgrade eligibility status for 1000’s of units at a time – an
automatic goldmine for dealers. There is almost NO TIME INVESTMENT to obtain
current eligibility status for large lists of units. Just start it and it runs
through all units. It will run the complete lead list
in a single function. A single spreadsheet is created listing all units
with updated eligibility information. Corporate unit data will be skipped by
default.

major site errors, the Wizard will automatically recover; saving the units
looked up so far. It will navigate back
to the 'Image Text'. You can input the image text and continue to run the
remaining units.

~ 100. See complete instructions below.
