| # Prepare Bid (tpest3210m000) Use this session to select which part of the estimate lines falls in to the bid. You can do this by selecting the primary structure and the estimate lines linked to the structural element s, or by selecting estimate lines that do not have a primary structure. These lines are called discrete lines. Discrete lines can only be copied as a range, they do not have linked structure. In the Estimate Lines (tpest2100m000) session you can change bid lines. After modification you have to start the Prepare Bid (tpest3210m000) session again. For bottom-up lines linked to a structural element, all conditions for transferring bottom up lines are valid. In case of discrete lines, Include In Scope must be selected and either Include In Cost or Sales must be selected. Related topics To launch an estimate to a budget To use a bid Bid Number Enter a number for the bid. This ID is a unique number that identifies the bid. rept.levl For cost and sales calculation, only the top-down Total level type is considered. You can send other top-down estimate lines to the bid as supporting lines with the following level types: Other structure. Detail. Cost type. The supporting lines for the primary structure element are not included in cost or sales calculations of the bid. The supporting lines are only used to support the bid, to increase the transparency of the bid, and to provide information. Cost Currency The default currency is the estimate version currency. Sales Currency The business partner currency is the default currency. Business Partner The project business partner. Primary Structure ID Primary structural element. Structure Type The estimate-version structure type. Structure Node A node is a part of an estimate-version structure that is not a leaf node. With this node, you can select a substructure from the complete estimate-version structure. Discrete lines If this check box is selected, discrete lines can be selected. If you want to launch these lines to a budget in the Launch Estimate to Budget (tpest2200m000) session, you can either launch all the costs to the top element of the project, or enter a code for each estimate line with the Add/Replace Structural Element function of the Estimate Lines Utilities (tpest2201m000) session. Finalize Estimate Lines If this check box is selected, all the estimate lines for this version are finalized. You can no longer change the lines. |
