The status you apply to an opportunity group is independent of the status on the individual bids within the group.
- Change the status of the entire opportunity group
- Change the status of an individual opportunity within a group
To update the status of the entire opportunity group
There are two ways to change the status of an opportunity group:
Accept or decline a group directly from your Bid Board
This can only be done when your group is in the "Undecided" status.
1. In your Bid Board, when a group is "Undecided", click "Bidding" or "Decline
under “Action" to change the group status to "Accepted" or "Declined" respectively.
2. If you click "Bidding", you can then select an assignee for the entire group and add private tracking information. Click “Save.” The group status is now "Accepted" and will move to the "Accepted" folder.
If you click "Decline", the group status is now "Decliend" and will move to the "Archived" folder.
Change group status on the “Overview” page
1. In Bid Board, double-click on the name of the group.
2. You can update the group status by:
- Option 1: At the top of the page, hover over the text at the bottom of the "Status" section and click "Change group status".
- Option 2: Click on the carat at the top-right to open a drop-down menu. Click "Change group status".
3. Select a new group status from the drop-down menu in the pop-up window that appears and click "Save".
7. You’ll be taken back to the opportunity group’s Overview tab. The group status has changed and does not affect the individual opportunity statuses.
In the example below, the individual opportunities are still "Undecided". Continue reading to learn how to change the status on an individual opportunity in a group.
Change the status of a single opportunity within a group
There are two ways to accept or decline a single opportunity that is part of a group:
- Accept or decline an individual opportunity within a group directly from Bid Board
- Change an individual opportunity's status within a group on the “Overview” page
Accept or decline an individual opportunity within a group directly from Bid Board
This can only be done when the individual bid is in the "Undecided" status.
1. In Bid Board, hover over a group and click “Click here to expand” to show the bids within that group.
2. Click "Bidding" or "Decline under “Action" to change the individual bid's status to "Accepted" or "Declined" respectively.
Change an individual bid's status within a group on the “Overview” page
1. In Bid Board, double-click on the name of the group.
2. In the "Overview" tab:
- If an individual opportunity is "Undecided", you can click the green check or red decline buttons to change that individual status to "Accepted" or "Declined" respectively.
- Otherwise, click on the carat next to that opportunity to open a drop-down menu.
3. Click "Change status".
4. Select a new status from the drop-down menu in the pop-up window that appears and click "Save".
