How to use a limit item in RFx

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We are using SRM 701 Patch 04. I activated the setting of limit item of bidding document. But I can not find the way to add a limit time to RFx.

The setting I have done is:

-> RFx Activate/Deactivate Limits in Bidding Documents

-> Create a new transaction type and select limit display as "be available on bid"

BTW, I can insert a item with "product category" type. What is that for? Please explain it to me as well. Thanks a lot.

Hello Jian,

Limits in bidding items are supported in the Bid Decoupling scenario where the RFx response submision happend outside firewall.

In order to add the limit items in RFx and get it working end to end , you to do follow the necessary configurations steps for the Sourcing with Bid Decoupling scenario.

Also to add to the transaction type creation for RFx; try creating the transaction type with Bidding system as External system type. Then only you will be allowed to add the limit itmes to the RFx.

Best Regards,
