Step 3: Criteria Response

The Step 3: Criteria Response tab on the Solicitation Response Wizard (SRW) transaction displays all evaluation criteria lines for the different criteria groups from the referenced solicitation. The rows in the grid are sorted by Group and then by Criteria Number.

Required/Conditionally Required FieldsRequired/Conditionally Required Fields

Only the required fields for each Line Item Type are editable. The Response Type for each criterion on the solicitation determines which response field is required on the SRW.

  • If the Response Type is Date, then the Date Response field is required.

  • If the Response Type is Number, then the Number Response field is required.

  • If the Response Type is Yes/No, then the Yes/No Response field is required.

  • If the Response Type is Text, then the Text Response field is required.

The Response Required field on this step specifies whether a response is required for the selected evaluation criteria line. The value for this read-only field is inferred from the Response Required field on the associated evaluation criteria line of the referenced SO transaction. You must provide a response if the Release Required column is Yes. If you attempt to Validate/Submit the SRW without providing a response for required criteria, then an error message is issued and the transaction is not submitted to Final.
