Hi Experts,

I am new in SRM.

There is no standard class method or FM for that purpose. I'd suggest that you create your own FM for this. It is not too complicated to put in the logic to determine the lead status from the status table.

I'd give you some algorithms which I'd use to go about it:

1. use bbp_pd_bid_getdetail to get the status table for your bid invitation

2. loop through the status table and catch the leading status with the following priority (not necessarily a complete list)

- deleted (transaction completed)

- published

- awaiting approval

- held

Hi Jay,

so according to u

- deleted (transaction completed)

is the latest Status?

No. By "priority", I meant if the status mentioned is in the table, that would be the leading status. So based on the priority list I gave you, if the "deleted" status is in the list of statuses returned to you from the getdetail FM, the Bid Invitation would be in "deleted" status. If not, then check for "published" status. So on and so forth.
