Clerk Phone Bids

Clerk Phone Bids: 

Once all the Phone Bidders are assigned to phone clerks, and the auction starts, each phone clerk will have a complete digital record of their Phone Bidders and auction Lots. Each phone clerk will log into the FWS using their user name and password, go to Auction Application/Clerk Phone Bids (they also have a print-out of their list of lot numbers and phone bidders).

 On the Clerk Phone Bids page, the display will show the first auction Lot for which that admin has a Phone Bidder. All of the information will be displayed related to the auction Lot, the Bidder, and any insurance bid that may be executed on behalf of the Phone Bidder in the event they cannot be reached by telephone.

The admin will enter the last amount that Phone Bidder placed on the auction Lot even if they were not the eventual winner. In this case, that information will be saved in the Item record file
