If you specify this project default, it would substitute the ZP_EMT_RA setting for emails sent when buyer submits answers on RFI questions from bidders.
The project default ZP_EMT_RAB is used to apply an email template to notify suppliers/subcontractors when a request for information (RFI) for an inquiry is answered by the buyer on P.30.22 or P.30.23. Before applying the template, it must be created on A.10.51 Email Templates.
For example, in request for information (RFI) emails, either bidder who submits the RFI question (sender), or bidder who receives buyer's answer (recipient) should appear. If a bidder submits an RFI, and the buyer decides to send the answer to all bidders, this reply email should not show the supplier code of the submitting bidder, but instead the supplier code of the addressee. To achieve this, create two tokens in A.10.51 Email Templates screen as follows:
|
Token |
Statement |
Comment |
|
SUP_SENDER |
select sup_code from m_suppliers where sup_id = <sup_id> |
Bidder who submitted RFI |
|
SUP_RECIPIENT |
select sup_code from m_suppliers where sup_id = <sup2_id> |
Bidder who receives answer |
#SUP_SENDER# should be used in the template for emails sent when bidders submit RFI questions, specified with project default ZP_EMT_RQ. #SUP_RECIPIENT# should be used in the template for emails sent when buyer answers RFI questions to all bidders, specified with project default ZP_EMT_RAB.
If ZP_EMT_RAB is not set, the template assigned to project default ZP_EMT_RA is used
to send a notification email to suppliers/subcontractors.
