Enabling the Auto-Request Bids feature can assist in expediting the bid request process. Instead of manually requesting bids, the system will automatically request bids from all eligible appraisers on your panel, bypassing requesting bids on the Assign Appraiser screen. Order placement will be the same, requiring you and your users to enable the Request Bids option within the Order section on the New Order screen, including bid due by date, to mark the order as ‘bidding.’
Upon successful order placement, the Communication Log will show the number of bid requests sent out to your eligible appraisers.
Reviewing bids will follow the same process. Please refer to Reviewing Bids as an Administrator for more information.
