# Finalize your bid

## Finalize your bid on a Japanese auction <a href="#finalizeyourbidonajapaneseauction" id="finalizeyourbidonajapaneseauction"></a>

After accepting the auction price, you’ll need to finalize your bid by distributing the auction price across the line items. Your auction will be available from the Bid Now tab on the Events list until you finalize it, and then it moves to the Submitted tab.

### Step 1: Distribute auction price <a href="#step1distributeauctionprice" id="step1distributeauctionprice"></a>

Distribute the Total auction price across the line items. You’ll see this total in the totals area below the line items.

* The line items Total must be equal to or less than the **Total auction price.**
* If your total exceeds the agreed price, an error message will appear, and you won’t be able to submit your bid until it's corrected.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.fairmarkit.com/suppliers/suppliers/auctions/japanese-auction/finalize-your-bid.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
