NO quote for some line items in a Bid Invitation

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

We have implemented SRM 5.0/Bidding Engine.

For example, When we create bid invitation with 10 line items, and invited about 5 bidders to participate.

Please note each one of line item is having about 15 attributes which are all required. It is not an optional attribute.

If one of the bidder is not interested in bidding for about 3 line items and standard functionality is - the bidder will make submittied quantity field to zero, so it will be ignored for any further checks.

But this is functionality is not working in our production system.

Please help me to resolve this.

I cant use the doc check BADI, since the attributes( eithere required or optional) are determined in the Bid Invitation templates we are using in the bidding engine.

Is there any other possible way?

Hi Vijay

I do not think it works the way you suggested.

If you make dynamic attr required, they will be required and making 'submitted quantity' as '0' will not change that.

Pl create a OSS message, if you feel strongly about it but I doubt you get a solution as it's not a bug.

Instead of using 'Required' field in Dynamic attributes, you may try to use BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI to control the required checks.

Best regards
