Bid Invitation - assign Bidder

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am working on the configuration part of Strategic sourcing in SRM. I am facing a situation in the process. Let me explain you the flow folloed by me.

1. I created a Shopping cart and did approve it successfully.

2. I created a Bid Invitation from SC and did publish.

3. Now If I am not wrong this Bid Invitation should go to the Bidders, who should be able to quote their prices.

But I am not able to figure out that how to handle this.

Infact I did assign a vendor while converting the SC to Bid Invitation and assumed that this bid invitation should go to the vendor but it is not happening.

can someone guide me how to do this?

It would be better if you tell me how to create a bidder and assign the bid invitation to him?

I am basically an technical, so I apreciate if you explain in detail. thanks in advance.
