How do I fill out an inline BidTable? (Browser Submission Type)

As part of the New BidTables offering, Vendors are able to complete and submit BidTables directly from the Submissions page, without having to download or complete a Microsoft Excel template. This streamlines the BidTable Submission process for Vendors, making it easier than ever to complete your Euna Procurement Submission.

Once you log in to Euna Procurement and select an Opportunity that uses the New BidTable format, the Type notes the accepted format of the BidTable. New BidTable format is noted as a Datatable, meaning you fill it out directly from the Submissions page. Here is what that looks like:

To complete the BidTable, scroll down to Submissions and click Prepare Your Submission.

Once you have clicked Prepare Your Submission, you are brought to the Submissions page. On this page, you can upload any required documents, as well as complete the New BidTable. Once the BidTable has loaded, it looks similar to the following:

In some cases, there may be a horizontal scroll bar. This indicates that there is additional information to the right that needs to be completed as well.

When starting to fill out your BidTable, begin by deciding whether to Bid or No Bid on the indicated line item.

Complete your selections. For line items that have been selected as No Bid, all text fields for that line item are grayed out as shown below:

Scroll to the right to see additional BidTable fields that may be required. Clicking a Text field expands it, allowing you more space for your response.

Once you have clicked away from the Text field, your response automatically saves and minimizes.

If you need to change the width of the Item column to view the full text, you can do so by hovering over the Item column's shadow, then clicking and holding when the double-sided cursor appears. You can then drag the column to your desired width, as shown below:

If the Project Owner has enabled the Additional Responses feature, you can add Additional Responses by first marking the original line item as Bid, then clicking the + sign beside the Bid/No Bid selection buttons. An additional line appears. This is where you can complete your additional response.

Once you have completed filling out all required data for the requested BidTable, click Confirm BidTable to mark it as complete as part of your Submission.

Once the BidTable has been confirmed, Euna Procurement validates your responses, then marks the BidTable as Complete. A valid BidTable will look as follows - note the green checkmarks on the left, along with the Edit BidTable button at the top right.

At this point, you can go ahead and Submit and Finalize your Submission.

If you need to make adjustments or edits to this BidTable prior to the project's close, click the Edit BidTable button. This returns the BidTable to an editable view and you can make your changes. Once you make your desired changes, click Confirm BidTable. Be sure to Submit and Finalize prior to the project's close, however.

If your BidTable is not validated, and you are unable to complete the BidTable, read any error messages carefully to determine next steps.

In the example above, the error message notes that two fields are incomplete. The error message has additional identifying information specifically noting which line item has the issue, and which fields need to be corrected. Once the necessary corrections have been made, you can correctly confirm the BidTable.
