Why Create an In-Negotiation Offer

In negotiation is used if the contract has not been finalised and a first deposit needs to be taken.

When conducting an auction, in order to generate the Deposit Details for the purchaser, you will need to create an In-Negotiation offer.

How to Create an In-Negotiation Offer

STEP 2 > The Create Offer window is opened with 7 Steps listed across the top panel. 

STEP 3 > The first step is selecting one of three editable options displayed in the Status dropdown menu. It is only possible to complete all 7 Steps when an Offer has been Accepted. In this instance In Negotiation will be selected.
