If this \u201cLast Recalculation\u201d line shows up, that means that there has been something edited at some point, so ResponsiBid updated the proposal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What you need to know:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you are using the follow-up builder to send automated emails to your customers where you included a link to the proposal, ResponsiBid is smart enough to only allow that link to take them to the most current version of their proposal. There is never an attachment like a PDF to the customer that will allow them to hang on to a bid that might some day be a bad bid. So by using this technology, if your customer hangs on to an old bid, it won\u2019t matter that you\u2019ve updated it, they will only have access to the current bid.<\/p>\n<p>Also, remember that ResponsiBid doesn\u2019t keep ALL bids on file. You will always be able to see the original bid (as a frame of reference), but if you change a bid from the original, you\u2019ll always have access to that, and if you\u2019ve changed specifications on a bid, ResponsiBid will show you that in the specifications area down in the module accordions too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"menu_order":214,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","article-categories":[27,97,68,15],"class_list":["post-549","article","type-article","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","article-category-communication","article-category-updating-a-bid","article-category-creating-a-bid","article-category-proposal-customization"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/docs.symphosize.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/articles\/549","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/docs.symphosize.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/articles"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/docs.symphosize.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/article"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/docs.symphosize.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/docs.symphosize.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=549"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/docs.symphosize.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/articles\/549\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/docs.symphosize.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=549"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"article-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/docs.symphosize.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Farticle-categories&post=549"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
