RFQ A purchasing document that is used as a request to bidders to submit their terms, such as price, discount, delivery time, and payment terms for delivering a (quantity of a) product. You can send the RFQ to several bidders. A bidder can submit an RFQ response for the specified items. You can record the responses, negotiate, and compare the prices and discounts that are offered by different bidders. An accepted response can be copied to a contract, an order, or a price book. Status Line A response to a request for quotation line, which includes a bidder's bid for the RFQ line. A bid offers goods or services for a certain price and terms of sale and can be considered as an offer to sell. Alternative The request for quotation (RFQ) line's sequence number, which is greater than one if it includes an item that can be an alternative for the preferred item. You must manually specify alternatives in the RFQ Lines (tdpur1502m000) session. Example The sequence numbers defined in the current field, represent the RFQ lines in the most suitable alternative sequence. So, sequence number one represents the first preferable item that can be an alternative for the originally preferred item, sequence number two represents the second item that can be an alternative, and so on.
