Printing, Importing and Exporting in Bid
Management
Throughout Bid Manager you can print, import and export. The process for
each task is the same regardless of what you are actually printing, importing
or exporting.
Printing
Bid administrators and bid recipients can print sections of the Bid Management
dashboard. For example, Bid Administrators can print the details of a bid
package after it has been created. Bid recipients can print the details of their
submitted intent to bid. Not all bid management windows have the print
functionality.
On pages where you can expand lists (that is, where there is a plus sign next
to an item) if you expand the list before printing those details will also print.
In the section that you want to print, click Print. The print preview is
displayed.
Importing
The ability to import is available throughout bid management. For example,
bid administrators can import bid packages. Project files can be imported to
add to a bid submittal. Not all bid management windows have the import
task.
To import the file:
1 In a bid management window click the Import link.
2 The Import page is displayed.
3 Click Browse to navigate to the file you want to import. You can select
a file from your hard drive or the Buzzsaw site.
NOTE If you select a file from your Buzzsaw site a copy of the file is imported to
the package. Thus, if the file on the site changes, the imported file is not updated.
Files that are exported from Buzzsaw can not then be imported.
