Dutch Lots
Lots are logical units for bidding. Unlike other project types where there are a variety of lots that allow flexibility for collecting bids, there is only one type of lot for Dutch Auctions. Standard Lots, ItemBid Lots, FlexBid lots and ActiveBid lots are not available. A Dutch Lot contains only one item and includes specifications for bidding intervals and how to end the auction.
See Adding Lots to a Dutch Auction for step-by-step instructions on creating lots.
Items
An item is a specific good, service, or contract placed up for bid. All items are placed inside of a lot.
See Adding an Item for step by step instructions on creating items.
