Adding quotation lines

After you receive the responses from vendors from whom you requested quotations, you can add the quotations into the record. Adding the quotation lines provides a complete record of the quotations from all of the vendors. You can then compare the quotations and award the line items based on the comparisons.

Before you begin

You can add quotation lines only if the status of the Request for Quotations is either SENT (Sent to the Vendor) or COMP (Completed).

About this task

You can specify quotation information for a line on either the Vendor tab or on the Item tab. However, you can initially add the quotation lines only by using the Select RFQ Lines button on the Vendor sub tab.

A quotation from a vendor shows in the currency of the vendor. The cost of the quotation line also shows in the base currency. You can then compare the cost of the item from all vendors from whom you received quotations. When you change the currency of a line, the unit cost, the line cost, and the tax amount display in the base currency.

Procedure

From the Request for Quotations application, display the record that you want to edit.
Click the Quotations tab.
On the Vendors sub tab, select the vendor whose quotations you want to add.
Click Select RFQ Lines. The Select RFQ Lines window shows all lines that have not been copied to the Quotations for Vendor table for the currently selected vendor.
Select one or more lines to copy, or select the topmost check box to select all lines.
Click OK.
