Setting up default bids

Introduction 

Setting up default bids 

In this topic, we review setting up a default bid. 

We estimate that this will take 3 minutes to complete.

Detailed Explanation 

Default bids are used when a current bid is not available and has not been placed. It remains in the system from one bid period to the next.
