Create Request for Quotation (tpest2200m200)

Use this session to create a request for quotation (RFQ) to estimate the item or service costs for a project. This enables the cost engineers to request for the price information when creating the estimate for a project. This session can only be accessed using the Create Request for Quotation option in the Estimate Lines (tpest2100m000) session.

Note

You can create a request for quotation for multiple estimate lines.

To create a request for quotation, you must specify the activity or element code for the estimate lines.

You can create the RFQ only if the Cost Type field is set to Materials, Equipment, or Subcontracting in the Estimate Lines (tpest2100m000) session.

For the RFQs created using this session, Infor LN sets the RFQ Origin field in the Request for Quotation Lines (tdpur1502m000) session to Project.
