Managing Buyer Console list
Use this page to review the summary of Request for Quotations (RFQs) and Supplier Responses. A separate RFQ line is created for every MPN in case if the RFQ line is associated with multiple MPNs for a part. This enables you to view the supplier responses for a specific MPN of the part on the RFQ Drilldown page. The information such as RFQ, line number, part, MPN, Manufacturer, Buyer Name, expiry date, is displayed. You can also view the number of responses from the supplier for a specific RFQ. These include the RFQs with the status Responded, Pending and Declined.
The RFQs are displayed based on the search criteria specified in the Search Criteria page.
