Analyzing and Editing RFQ Before Award


The RFQ line description cannot be changed after the RFQ line has been sourced to a purchase order. Prior to awarding the RFQ, it is recommended that after analyzing vendor responses and determining which vendor will receive the award for each line, users navigate back to enter vendor responses and edit the line item description on the details sub-panel for the vendor receiving the award. For example, you may need to delete "or equal".
