11.5.1 Auctions: Auctions

To create an auction:

1. From the Auctions menu, select Auctions. The Auctions page displays.

If you do not see this menu, then the logon ID does not have the appropriate authority to perform this task. Contact the site administrator.

2. Click New to start the Auction wizard.

3. Complete each page and click Next until you are finished.

4. Click Finish. The auction is created and an acknowledgement message opens, showing the auction ID.

Here are some general tips to consider when creating auctions:

For Dutch auctions, use the Auction wizard to create an auction. If you expect to use the same template for several auctions, consider creating an auction style first.

If you are creating an Open Cry or Sealed Bid auction, you may want to specify bid rules when you create the auction. In such cases, create bid rules before you create the auction.

In general, if you know we will be using the same style for several auctions, create an auction style first, then create an auction with the Auction wizard, using the auction style you just created.
