A bidder may contact the Project Administrator during a live event about an erroneous bid. If this happens, you can use Bid Management to correct or delete a bid.

If you need to correct a bid during a Live Event, Iasta recommends that you pause the live event and issue an administrative message announcing the situation. Also, all bids placed after the incorrect bid may have been influenced by the incorrect bid and these bidders should be contacted and allowed to retract their bids. When the project resumes, there will be enough time for the bidders to place new accurate bids.
