Can I choose which vendors receive solicitations?

Certain types of jobs may utilize different vendor pools which have been previously setup for your company. These vendor pools can be changed prior to sending the job out for bid. Once the specifications have been entered, click on the underlined number of vendors selected to receive the solicitation or the Vendors Tab. Click Edit next to the current vendor pool to change it.

Select the desired vendor pool and click Save. The vendor pool has now changed, and only the vendors shown will be sent the solicitation. Additionally, editing the restrictions or certifications from the vendor pool screen will add additional requirements to the job and may remove additional vendors.

Once a schedule has been created, the option may be available to click Select next to a vendor to send the solicitation to that vendor as a Directed Buy.
