Bids management
Managing bids when the request for proposal rendering type is activated
Path: SBO > Services > Bids
Definition
A bid with the ‘request for proposal’ rendering type can be considered equivalent to a booking with the other features.
It is the proposal made by an offerer in response to the ‘request for the proposal’ of an asker.
The bid is the services given when an agreement is made between the asker and the offerer to perform the desired service.
The booking allows all parties to agree on the date and if possible the place. It is a written record of this agreement. All of this is done via the platform.
WHO CAN USE THIS FEATURE?
This is for logged super-administrators and administrators with good roles/permissions.
