Review and accept bids

Once your tender is on the marketplace, bids come in. On the tender's Overview you see how many bids there are and the Lowest Bid. From the bid list you accept, decline or counter them.

Open the bids

1. Open the Marketplace tab on the dashboard.
2. Click your tender and open its Bids tab. Or choose Bids in the tender's row actions.
3. Compare the Company Name, Amount, Remark, Status and Made on of each bid.
4. Click a bid to see its details.

Bid statuses

Status	Meaning
Offered	Placed and waiting for your decision. Bids placed in the app and counter bids get this status.
Draft	Saved but not yet offered. Bids from other systems can arrive as drafts.
Accepted	You accepted this bid.
Declined	You declined it, or answered it with a counter bid.
Not chosen	Another bid on the same tender was accepted.

Accept a bid and plan the trip

1. In the bid list, choose Accept and plan in the bid's row actions.
2. Read the summary: the amount, the company and the tender that will be closed.
3. Check the Start date. It defaults to the start of the pickup window.
4. Click Accept and plan.

The bid is accepted, all other bids that are still open (offered or draft) become Not chosen, the tender is closed and a trip is created for the tender's consignment, named after the tender. Plan that trip further as a forwarded trip. See Forward a trip to a partner.

Accept without planning

Choose Accept in the bid's row actions, or click the bid and click the Accept icon (checkmark).

The tender is closed in the same way, but no trip is created. Plan the consignment yourself afterwards.

Decline or counter a bid

• Choose Decline, or click the bid and click the Decline icon (cross). The tender stays open for other bids.
• To propose another price, choose Counter bid in the bid's row actions. Enter the Amount and Remarks and click Send. The original bid is declined and your counter bid is added.

Settled bids (accepted, declined or not chosen) no longer show these actions.
