You can change the bidder email in the RFB Vendors BP > Line Item Type Vendor > Bidder/ Tender Email Address.
If you accept the change (click Submit or Save > Yes), then the system updates the vendor record, with the new email address.
- If there are active bids for the vendor, then the system sends an email to the vendor with their username and password.
- If there are no active bids, then the system changes the email address, but the system does not send an email to the vendor.
- If you change the vendor’s email to an email that exists in Unifier already, then the following message will be displayed: Existing email or username cannot be used.
Unifier deactivates the old email address.
If you do not accept the change, then the system reverts back to the original email address.
