Bid's status types

Steps of processing your bid:

1. created — You have placed a bid on the offer that you like. This bid is considered active.

2. accepted — Your bid has been selected by the shipper and you have to confirm it.

3. confirmed — You have confirmed your win.

4. won — Your bid has won and the transportation is yours - congratulations! 🎉

But your bid can also have "Cancelled" status cancelled (if you cancelled it) or "Rejected" rejected (if the shipper cancelled it manually or selected another bid).

If your bid was cancelled, there can be 3 reasons:

1. If the shipper has rejected your bid manually or the offer has been deleted/closed, then you will see "Rejected" indicator rejected.

2. If the shipper has chosen another bid, then you will see "Lost: another bid has been chosen" lost_to_another.

3. If you have not confirmed your bid on time, then you will see "You have not confirmed the bid" confirm_runout.

"Bargain" mode also has additional labels for the top-1 bid accounting for the taxation type:

• "Best with VAT" - if your bid is the best and includes VAT.

• "Best without VAT" - if your bid is the best and the tax is not included.

A rejected bid may end up in the archive archived, but even a rejected bid may become a winning bid, in which case it returns to the active status.

An active bid (created ) has cost competitiveness indicators:

• In the "Bargain" mode: "Best", "Among the best", "Mid", "Losing".

• In the "Auction" mode: "Best" and "Outbid" (i.e. someone made a better bid).

• In the "Fix" mode, only the "Bid placed" indication will be displayed, since participants do not have the opportunity to offer their own price.

In the screenshot below you can see an example of what the bid cost competitiveness indicators look like.
