Event Dates/Times

The system stores the event preview and the start and end dates and times in universal time code (UTC) so that bidders will be able to view events at the correct time in their time zones.

Bid Question End Effective Date

Specify an ending date and time for all questions that are available to attach to an event. The system uses this date as the default end effective date when you leave the Effective Date To field blank when setting up bid question templates.

Event Preview Default Time/UOM (event preview default time unit of measure)

Specify a default duration of time for event preview. The system adds this duration of time to the current system date and time to calculate the default time for event preview. Enter a number and then select a unit of measure. Valid units of measure are:

D: Days

H: Hours

M: Minutes

The system stores valid units of measure in UDC table 43Q/TM.

Event Start Default Time/UOM

Specify a duration of time for the system to add to the preview date and time to calculate the default start date and time.

Event End Default Time/UOM

Specify a duration of time for the system to add to the start date and time to calculate the default end date and time.
