Auto-create Contract
When an additional Detail tab (for the Requestor section of all RFB type Business Process forms) is available, you can use the second Detail tab (non-standard tab) to record the lines of the winning bid, as the user copies the data from the Bid Comparison Sheet.
In general, the Bid Comparison Sheet, for a preferred bidder, contains more information than the information submitted by the bidder.
The second Detail tab is similar to that of any other non-standard Detail tab on any other Cost-type BP which allows multiple tabs.
To be able to use this feature, the following conditions must exist:
- The "
uuu_rfb_winning_bid
" data element must be included in the RFB requestor form. - At least one bidding process must be completed.
After these conditions are met, you can select the winning bid.
The Result window displays all the completed bids. You can select one bid as the winning bid and after selecting that bid the system copies all the lines of the winning bid onto the Winning Bid tab.
The system copies the lines base on the matching data elements available on the:
- Bidder detail form
- Bid Comparison Sheet
The destination record is created by auto-creation and selecting a Winning Bid is not required for successful auto-creation.
The BP Creator is available after all the mapping to the second Detail tab (Winning Bid) is complete.
