This subtask displays all RFQ rows where the part is listed. When you enter and save RFQ lines for the part in the Enter RFQs by Item screen or Enter RFQ's by Vendor screen in Costpoint Procurement Planning, those lines appear in this screen's table window, and cannot be deleted or edited. In this case, the RFQ Created field displays "Y" (Yes), indicating that the RFQ has been automatically created. This subtask also displays RFQ selection rows that have been created here or in the Select RFQs from Proposal screen and have already been turned into requisitions.
Similarly, this table window also displays those RFQ lines that have been selected, loaded and saved in the RFQ Line Selections table window in the Select RFQs from Proposals screen. In this case, the line's RFQ Created field defaults to "N" (No), unless you have run the Create RFQs for Proposals application for the proposal, item, and vendor.
You can include standard parts, provisional parts, goods, and services on RFQ lines in this screen and in the Select RFQs from Proposals screen because you can link all four to a proposal, but only standard and provisional parts can be included in a PBOM. You can include only standard parts, goods, and services on an RFQ in the Enter RFQs by Item screen in Costpoint Procurement Planning; however, you can include provisional parts, standard parts, goods, and services on an RFQ in this screen or the Enter RFQs by Vendor screen.
These fields default from the main screen.

You can establish procurement type codes and a set number of required quotes in the Procurement Types screen in Costpoint Procurement Planning and Costpoint Purchasing. These fields are optional.

When you start a new line in the table window, this field defaults to "N" (No), and you can edit only select fields for the line. Also, if you have selected and saved the line in the Select RFQs from Proposals screen (but have not yet created it in the Create RFQs for Proposals application), the line will appear in this table window, and the RFQ Created field will display "N" (No). However, once you have created a selected RFQ line (or entered and saved it in the Enter RFQs by Item or Enter RFQs by Vendor screens in Costpoint Procurement Planning), the RFQ Created field displays "Y" (Yes), the RFQ field is populated, and you cannot delete or change the line.

This field displays the item's description.
This field displays the RFQ line's unit of measure. When you start a new line, this field will default with the item's default unit of measure. Otherwise, you can assign the unit of measure to the RFQ line when creating the RFQ.
These fields display the quantity breakpoint values for the item that the vendor is supposed to cost. If the line appears in the Enter RFQs by Item or Enter RFQs by Vendor screens in Costpoint Procurement Planning, the quantity breakpoint values can be adjusted only in those screens in the Line Quantity Breakpoints subtask. A line appears in the Request for Quotes (i.e., the RFQ Created field is "Y") for each breakpoint quantity line in the Line Quantity Breakpoints subtask.
If the line displays or is entered in this table window (or in the RFQ Line Selections group box in the Select RFQs from Proposals screen) and the RFQ Created field is "N," you can adjust the quantity breakpoint value in either screen.

Also, the vendor part ID will default in this field if it is different from the manufacturer part ID in the Alternate Parts screen. This optional field is available in the Enter RFQs by Item or Enter RFQs by Vendor screens, where you can use it to select other vendor parts previously entered in the Alternate Parts screen.
This field displays any line notes associated with the RFQ line. You can enter up to 254 alphanumeric characters if the RFQ Created field is "N." If the RFQ Created flag is "Y," you must maintain line notes in the Enter RFQs by Item or Enter RFQs by Vendor screens.
This field displays the company ID assigned to the vendor part.
Select this pushbutton to load all applicable vendor/item combination lines that exist in the Assign Vendors screen in Costpoint Product Definition.
