How to edit Project specification details?
Before Quote was sent to Customer Contact
You may want to edit the specification details after supplier provided their price for a project (where responses from Suppliers have been received).
In order to do it, follow the below steps:
- Go to your Quote
- Scroll down to 'Specification' section
- Clicl on the spanner icon
- Update specification details
- Hit Save
- Select what action should be triggered as a next step
- Re-send all supplier quote requests - this will clear all suppliers prices AND will send 'REVISED QUOTE REQUEST' email
- Clear all supplier prices (but keep suppliers) - this will clear the prices but WILL NOT trigger an email notification to the suppliers ( as the changes to the prices might have been discussed in advance and you as a buyer will enter them on behalf of the suppliers)
- Remove all suppliers and prices - this will allow new suppliers to be invited to quote a request. Once suppliers are invited a notification will be sent to them advising to provide their prices.
- Do nothing (keep suppliers and prices) - after specification details are updated there will be no changes to the suppliers selected to bid on this request and the prices they have already provided will remain unchanged.
