Some Things to Remember
•
All orders must be placed in BOXES – not cases. eBudde will round up to full cases
automatically. You must pay for these full cases at the time your order is placed.
•
You can enter your order from any computer with internet access; it only takes a
few minutes.
•
Practice with eBudde all you want on the eBudde Demo site before actually having
to submit your order: http://ebdemo.littlebrownie.com/. The Demo Site will be
available starting in December. The real eBudde site will be fully available to troops
at the end of the Initial Sale period, starting January 20, 2014.
•
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 29, 2014 – Delivery information must be submitted by
this date through the electronic forms on the GSGNY website
(www.girlscoutsnyc.org).
•
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 2014 – Your cookie order must be fully submitted
through eBudde (http://ebudde.littlebrownie.com) by this date. The payment for
your troop cookie order must be fully accessible in your troop bank account by
February 5 to ensure your cookie order is processed without changes.

Common eBudde Problems
Troubleshooting Your Order
Initial Order Tab
1. eBudde won’t let me enter any information on the “Initial Order” tab. I am clicking on
each row, but nothing will work.
• Did you accidentally submit your order before it was ready? Look at the top of the
“Initial Order” page. If you accidentally submitted your order, the “Submit Order”
button will be missing. If you did accidentally submit your order and need to make
changes before the February 3rd deadline, contact the Product Sales department.
Rewards Tab
2. I can’t see the rewards that were ordered for my Girl Scouts.
•
•
You will need to officially submit your rewards order by clicking the “Submit Rewards
Order” button before you will be able to see your final rewards order. That is the only
way some items, like Per Girl Average rewards, will generate.
There are 2 rows on the “Rewards” tab – “Initial Rewards Order” and “Final Rewards
Order”. Click the “View” button on the “Initial Rewards Order” row to see your rewards,
or click the “Girl Rpt” button to download a report that you can save to your computer.
Sales Report Tab
3. My “Sales Report” tab won’t generate/update (some numbers read ‘0’).
•
Did you click the “Submit Order” button on the “Initial Order” tab to finalize your
order? The “Sales Report” tab will only generate when your order is submitted
(remember that when you submit your order that means that the order is final and
you cannot change it.)
4. The “Amount Due to Council” doesn’t match what I calculated our troop deposit
should be.
• Did you…
 … include the money due for Operation Cookie sales ($3.35 for each box)?
 … account for the boxes your troop needs to make full cases (“Extras” row)?
 … check the “Deposits” tab after February 5th to make sure your ACH debit sweep
payment has been credited? If not, contact the Product Sales department.
