Export and Import RFQs

Fairmarkit suppliers can export multiple new RFQs into an Excel file, update quote details offline, and import the completed file back into the platform.

Step-by Step Overview:

Export RFQs:

  1. Navigate to your RFQ list.

  2. Select all RFQs (by checking off the box on the left side of 'Title') or choose specific RFQs you would like to download.

  3. A pop-up will appear at the bottom of your screen with an Export option.

Accept Terms & Conditions:

Before exporting, you must accept the T&Cs for each RFQ:

  • Check the T&Cs box for each RFQ individually, or

  • Scroll to the bottom of the page, select Select All, and then click Accept & Export.

Complete the Excel File:

Once the Excel file downloads, fill out the required columns:

  • Column R: unit_price

  • Column S: delivery_days

  • Column V: supplier_pn

Additional columns are available if you need to provide more information.

Decline an RFQ (Optional):

If you need to decline an RFQ:

  1. Update Column T (is_rejected) from FALSE to TRUE.

  • This automatically declines the RFQ.

  1. (Optional) Add a reason in Column U (no_quote_reason).

Import and Submit Final Quotes

When you are ready to submit your completed quotes:

  1. Save the Excel file as a CSV.

  2. Return to the Fairmarkit platform and open Import Events.

  3. Select your CSV file.

  4. Enable Submit after import if you want quotes submitted automatically.

    • Otherwise, you can review each RFQ before submitting.

  5. Choose how long your quotes are valid.

  6. Click Accept & Submit.

Confirm Submission:

After submission, your RFQs will appear in the Import tab.

  • If the status shows Imported in green, no further action is needed.
