RFQ Compare Responses Based on Amounts Grouped by Bidder (tdpur1511m300)

Use this session to view the ranked bidders based on prices converted to amounts.

As the amounts are grouped by bidder, the amounts for different RFQ lines can be added together. In addition, because different RFQ lines can have different units, the comparison is based on amounts and not on prices.

This session is displayed as a tab in the RFQ Compare Responses (tdpur1600m100) session.

Note

By default, the ranking of the lines is based on the Total Amount for each bidder. You can change the ranking based on Net Amount incl. Bidder landed Costs, or Net Amount.
