A supplier has two possibilities after reading the General Conditions: can “Accept” or “Reject” the terms.

In order to be able to participate in a tender they will need to accept the GC.

If a supplier refused the GC by mistake, the Project Leader or OSS Team can reset the acceptance status as described below.

1. Steps to check and reset GC acceptance status in an RFP:

• Open the tender
• Click on “Supplier circle”
• Click on “NDA, GC, CC acceptance status”- After the supplier has downloaded and accepted the GC documents then the status is displayed in the column Last Acceptance Status.
• Click on “Set acceptance status for general conditions” icon if a supplier refused by mistake the GC documents and a reset is needed
• Set status to “Pending” from the drop-down list
• Click on “Apply”

• The supplier will need to go in the project, download the documents and accept them as described in the following Article

2. Steps to check GC status in an Auction: 

• Open the Auction
• Click on “Supplier circle”
• Click on “GC acceptance status”- After the supplier has downloaded and accepted the GC documents then the status is displayed in the column Last Acceptance Status.

• If a supplier refused the GC by mistake, he can download the documents again and Accept them. There is no need to reset the GC acceptance status in Auction in order for the supplier to be able to accept the documents if he refused first. Click HERE for the Supplier Guide
