Are you looking for a way to manage your open Request for Quotes to your Vendors?

The Business Edge’s Open Request for Quote Report is the tool you need to view Open RFQ’s. This report can be generated for any Date Range and will present all open Requests for Quotes for the specified period of time.

When you process RFQ’s through the system you are collecting valuable information that should be entered in Enter & Edit RFQ’s. Prior Quotes can be viewed in a Product Inquiry as well as purchasing and history screens. This makes it easier the next time you need to get a price, being able to see who quoted what prices in the past.

If you choose to see detail in the report you will see the following fields: Product Code, Description, RFQ Number, Date, Vendor, Line Number, Quantity, Unit of Measure, Price Per, Total, Requested By and Responded. You can see all of the fields on the screen and determine line items do not have prices associated yet.

There is also an option to say No to the detail and in that case you will only see RFQ Number, Date, Vendor, Requested By and Responded. If you fill in the Responded Date when you receive the RFQ’s back from the Vendors you can easily view which Vendors you need to follow up with.

The Open Request for Quote report can be accessed through the menu path below.
