Users with the Create RFQ role are able to view and accept quotes once a supplier has submitted a response to a Request for Quote (RFQ).
Viewing RFQs and Quotes
Navigate: Go to the
Marketplacemodule > select Transactions > click View Requests for Quote.
Summary Screen: The
Requests for Quotescreen populates, showing a list of RFQs. Each RFQ displays a summary indicating how many suppliers have Accepted, Declined, or are Waiting (yet to respond).
View Details: Locate the desired RFQ using the RFQ ID search field, Period field, or Filters. Once located, select the RFQ name.
Quote Summary: The RFQ view screen displays the invited suppliers along with a summary of their information, including the quoted price and expiry date.
Accepting an RFQ Quote
Users can accept the RFQ Quote, once the supplier(s) has responded and the RFQ is in a Responded state.
Navigate and Locate: Follow steps 1-3 above to locate and select the desired RFQ name.
Open Full Quote: From the RFQ view screen, select View to open the full quote details.
Accept Quote: To accept the quote, select Add to Cart and add the items to your shopping cart for checkout.
Note: For quotes initiated directly by a supplier (not in response to an RFQ), the acceptance and decline process is different.
