FAQ

Why are my subjects in red font?

If the Room Administrator has predetermined subjects in place and the subjects in your spreadsheet do not match the ones listed in the Room, you will receive this icon. To change the subject that is allocated to the question, select the subject and choose from the available subjects in the drop-down menu.

Can I edit the questions I have uploaded?

If you need to edit a question, simply click on the text, make the required changes, and select the check mark icon.

Can I attach documents to the questions I just bulk uploaded?

You will not be able to link related documents when bulk-uploading questions or add related documents after the bulk upload. This function is only available when asking single questions.

My excel won't upload - why is this?

You'll need to ensure that the format matches our bulk upload template to successfully upload questions.

Can I as an admin perform this bulk upload for a guest?

This feature has been designed for ease of use to help bidders / external parties submit questions easily, it is best for audit reasons they upload their questions themselves. If you're an admin and you need to upload on behalf of your guests, you will need to add yourself to this buyer team, submit the questions then delete yourself.
