eAuc:BidIncrementMultiple
|
0.01
|
Floating-point number that determines the minimum monetary-unit increment for bids. For example, if 1, all bid increments have to be a multiple of 1. If the value is 0.01, all monetary values must be multiples of 0.01 (one cent if the monetary unit is dollars).
|
eAuc:BidIncrMultipleTolerance
|
0.005
|
A floating point value between 0 and 0.005 which specifies the allowed deviation from an exact multiple of the BidIncrementMultiple property. This provides accommodation for math rounding errors that could result if the BidIncrementMultiple is set to certain problematic number values (such as 0.17).
|
eAuc:EnforceExactBidIncrement
|
TRUE
|
Controls whether the system enforces all new bids to be exact multiples of the bid increment. If FALSE, bid increments do not have to be exact multiples of the eAuc:BidIncrementMultiple value. If TRUE, increments must be exact multiples.
|
eAuc:AutobidToReservePrice
|
FALSE
|
An AutoBid is not automatically adjusted to meet the Reserve Price (if possible) on bid placement.
|
eAuc:BidTimeTieBreakOption
|
1
|
One of the following: (1) Users who have prior winning bids have their follow-up bids time-stamped to the time of the prior winning bid; (2) Users who have placed any prior bid have their follow-up bids time-stamped to the time of the prior bid; or, (3) New and replacement bids and AutoBids are time-stamped when placed.
|
eAuc:AllowTimeStampAdvantage
|
TRUE
|
The eAuc:AllowTimeStampAdvantage property allows the site administrator to determine if any advantage will be given to a bid based on timestamp. The eAuc:BidTimeTieBreakOption setting determines what timestamp a bid receives.
