Submit mode is dateless and therefore switching submit mode will apply to all dates.
Actions applied to Multiple Bids
There are three actions that may be performed on multiple bids at one time.
Switch algo auto submit mode from ON to OFF and vice versa
Load other bids into draft bids
‘other bids’ are acknowledged bids, a bid template, algo bid or draft bids (from another date)
Submit draft bids
Select the units and services you wish to action
Click on an Action button
Switch Algo Auto Submit Mode
Switching the Submit Mode effectively turns the autobidding system ON or OFF
Select the Auto Submit Mode
Add Notes (optional)
Click Submit
The validation warning ‘overriding with same value’ does not prevent you from affecting the action, rather it simply highlights that the action will not change the submit mode of that unit and service. For example switching submit mode from ON to ON will not change the submit mode.
Load into Drafts
Your Drafts are the bids that you may edit and submit manually. However before you can edit and submit a manual bid you first must load bids into your drafts. The bids you load into your drafts can be from one of four sources.
A bid template
Acknowledged bids
Algo bids
Draft bids
Select the source
Select the date of the source you wish to copy from
Note: templates are dateless, rather you select from a list of templates
Click Load
The validation ‘overriding existing offer’ warns you that you have an existing draft and that it will be replaced with a new draft copied from the selected source.
Change status ‘no change’ that there is no bid in the selected source for that unit and service
Only the latest draft per day is stored. Therefore you cannot have multiple drafts for a day nor can you go back to an old draft. If you wish to work with multiple drafts you should edit and save them as templates.
Prepare to submit drafts
Select the ‘submit to date’ - this is the settlementdate of the bid
Enter or select the rebid fields
Click ‘submit’
The validation aims to ensure that the bid will be accepted. ‘Fail’ means that the bid is expected to be rejected.
Standard keyboard navigation works throughout the Autobidder, for example
TAB through the rebid fields
ctrl+ A to select a datetime, then ctrl+C to copy, enter, tab, ctrl+V , this will copy move paste the datetimes
Open any bid or submission
Click on any green information in the Offer page to open either a bid (algo, acknowledged or draft) or the last submission (algo or manual).
Note: Check boxes are for ‘Actions to Multiple Bids’ only
Edit draft bid
The only bid you may edit is your draft bid. If you would like to edit another bid, for example an algo bid, you must load it into draft first.
Use most standard key strokes to edit such as,
ctrl+C, shift arrow, ctrl+V and ctrl+D (ctrl+D is the most efficient)
However ctrl+shift and page up/down are not supported in this table
Expand pricebands to edit
Click ‘save changes’ to save your edits
'unsaved changes' tells you there are edits that have not been saved
Click on the duid/service in the left hand navigation to move to another draft bid
Hover over chart to display values
A list of pricebands, unit information, MR price and validations is on the left hand side.
Failed validations are also highlighted in the cell
