Viewing Sell Opportunities

---

Sell Opportunities are generated when a potential seller searches for items to sell and at least one match is found to a potential buyer's posting.

Only users with no uploaded postings (Passive Participants) may search for Sell Opportunities. Active Participants (those with uploaded files) are not permitted to search for Sell Opportunities. As a result, Active Participants do not see the Search button in the Sell menu. In addition, both the Quick Search and the Advanced Search functions are limited to searches for Buy Opportunities for Active Participants.

To view your Sell Opportunities, log in with your user name and password, and then either select Sell Opportunities from the Sell menu, or click the Sell Opportunities line in the Message Center.

The Sell Opportunities window lists all your Sell Opportunities.

Searching for a Specific Line Item

To find a specific line item on the Sell Opportunities screen, you can search for information with the Find function located at the top of the screen or you can sort by column.

• To search for a particular line item, enter the word(s) or number(s) you wish to find and select the column from the drop-down list; then click the "go" button.
  

  The window refreshes and displays only the results of your search. To view all your Sell Opportunities again, click the line about Sell Opportunities in the Message Center.

• To sort by column, click the column heading. For example, the MFR column can be sorted alphabetically.

Working with Sell Opportunities

For each line item that you would like to pursue further as a possible sale, take these steps:

1. Enter a Seller Qty. Notice that the Buyer Qty changes to reflect your offered Sell Qty.
2. Enter a Seller Price.
3. Add Comments (not required).
4. Click the Submit My Offers button.

You can undo all your changes by clicking the Undo All Changes button if you have not yet clicked the Submit My Offers button.

After you click the Submit My Offers button, the following actions occur:

• A transaction ID is opened in PartBridge.
• The transaction becomes visible to the buyer at the Buyer Pending Approval window, where the buyer can accept or decline the seller's offer.
• A transaction remains visible in the Sell Opportunities window until a PO number is entered at the buyer's Purchase Orders Pending window.
