Changing the submission deadline

If necessary, you can change the submission deadline. You can take this measure if, for example, you want to give suppliers more time to prepare their quotations.

Hint:

If all quotations are already available during an ongoing sourcing event, you can advance the opening of quotations. The quotations can have the status "Submitted" or "Invalid quotation". If at least one of the suppliers does not have one of the mentioned quotation statuses, it is not possible to open the quotations in ongoing events. Read more about it on the following page:

Opening quotations

Select your desired event from the "RFQ - ongoing" list. You can open the event by clicking anywhere in the line or on the right by using the envelope button.

You can change the submission date directly in the "Header data" tab that will open. Please click on the pencil button to the right of the submission deadline.

The dialog box opens, where you can set the new deadline.

You can either change date and time or just the date...

…or just the time.

Finally, click on the button "Change Submission deadline". All active suppliers will then be notified by e-mail about the new deadline.
