How to script a batch file to perform offsite internet backups, and automate backup events using Task Scheduler. Right-click Notepad.exe and Run-as-Administrator. Save-as backup.bat (drop down and select all files under the save as type menu in explorer). When executed this script will backup the default database definiton 'Rezy'. See c:\spartner\fdconnectiondefs.ini C:\spartner\rezy.exe /utilities /offsitebackup This example uses the 'db' switch to run the backup against a non-default definition eg. 'Europa' C:\spartner\rezy.exe /utilities /db=europa /offsitebackup Using Task Scheduler, create a new task to run your Batch file.

On a Cloud hosted instance with two workstations one of the PC's presented an unusual issue when merging letter templates. No matter how many contacts were selected the counter would display one of zero documents. For multiple recipients the Email All option was greyed out also. The solution was to update the FDConnections.ini file on the impacted machine, specifically removing these two comments: ResourceOptions.AssignedValues= [rvAutoReconnect] FetchOptions.AssignedValues=[evMode, evRecordCountMode] Possible causes ruled out:
John Duncan MBA BCA Licensed Real Estate Salesperson (REAA 2008) Key 3.4 Finalise the marketing strategy after initial preview marketing. One benefit of this approach is that you do not have to sell a “market price” assessment or a particular sales method to your potential vendor when you are doing a listing presentation. You do have to provide a documented price estimate and an assessment of costs which may include Auction or Tender marketing plans and it may be evident right away which approach your vendor would prefer. However, with SalesPartner you have the option of deferring the choice of marketing plan until after the initial database previews uncover the current level of buyer interest for their property. Your goal in the presentation is to determine your vendor’s views on price and marketing methods and sell them the processes you will use to find the best price the market will offer in the shortest possible time, with the least inconvenience to them. If for an Auction or Tender marketing campaign you would recommend three open homes, then the structure of your initial marketing and vendor calendar presentation can be greatly simplified. Once the listing is signed, invitations will go out to your database of active buyers and those of your colleagues to organise previews during the first week while signs, photos and advertising are prepared. If the property is not sold early there will then be three open homes followed by an optional Auction or Tender date. If not sold then, a full vendor review is undertaken to reposition the property. This review after three open homes should also be scheduled if a By Negotiation strategy (with or without a price) is chosen. You'll find this approach makes it much easier to list a property and bring it to market without overpricing it or “buying the listing” and you will have a process with lots of activity and feedback coming to your vendor at the crucial early stage of marketing. However, it will only work if you have kept track of contacts, and developed proactive systems to provide early notice of new listings. Successful salespeople may find this process difficult to implement for every listing. Hosting previews for one representative property in a particular area or price bracket each month can help gather the buyer feedback you need to assess the market demand, so you can advise your potential vendors on their options for the first phase of marketing. For busy salespeople with a full slate of open homes each weekend, the weekly weblink email to their database together with SMS messaging to their A buyers will be a time-efficient way of implementing preview marketing for their office’s new listings. Preview invitations for their own listings should be part of their standard marketing strategy.
Key 3.3 Use preview marketing to help choose the best initial sales strategy. John Duncan MBA BCA Licensed Real Estate Salesperson (REAA 2008) Some salespeople claim all properties are suited for Auction, others claim the best sales method in their area is Tender, and still others insist all properties should be priced from the start of the marketing process. Every method has potential drawbacks for your vendors. All of these drawbacks will be diminished with excellent systems for implementing the chosen marketing plan, proactive database marketing, good presentation, and promotion, coupled with good use of CMAs for buyers. However if you have mastered preview marketing then you should be able to assess and document the level of interest and the initial feedback from the active buyers in your marketplace. This should enable you to provide your vendors with a choice of approach and your preview marketing will make choosing the most effective approach for their property much easier. If you have several buyers in a position to proceed and who are keen to have an opportunity to buy the property, an Auction campaign should secure the best result. If you have competing buyers with a wide spectrum of potential uses for the property as an investment, or a family home, or wanting to purchase with conditions, or if your vendor wants to sell with conditions then a Tender should be the best option. If you have not uncovered competing interested buyers who are ready to proceed during the preview phase, then a By Negotiation campaign with or without a price would be called for. A marketing strategy with a price on the property attracts the attention of the widest pool of buyers and when well managed can also lead to a multiple offer situation and possibly a result above the advertised price. It is important to recognise that your office may have a preferred approach to the marketing and your vendor may have chosen you as their salesperson expecting the popular marketing process in your area to be run. Your vendor may also have strong views on which forms of marketing they would want for their property and these need to be given full weight in order to ensure their support for the sales process.
