  Key Concepts:

  How to use it: 
  To use the Auction Close feature, buyers must first log into their SAP LOD-ESO Sourcing OnDemand account. Once logged in, buyers can select the “Auction Close” option from the main menu. This will open a window where buyers can select the auction they wish to close. Once selected, buyers can enter the new end time for the auction and click “Close Auction” to close the auction. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the Auction Close feature, it is important to remember that all bids placed after the new end time will not be counted. Therefore, it is important to set a reasonable end time that allows all bidders enough time to submit their bids.
