Once you've created an RFP, add the venues that are perfect for your meeting by following the steps below. Then send it right away or wait until you're up to the task.
1 Search for venues. Click Find Venues in the top navigation. Enter a location and click Find venues.
If necessary, use the filters on the left to narrow down the search results.
2 Add them to your cart. Hover over a venue's listing and click Add to list to save it in your shopping cart.
Once you've finished browsing, click Venue List in the top right, then Add to Existing RFP.
Select the RFP by clicking the radio button next to the code, then click Next >>.
Click Next >> again.
If there are any conflicting or past dates, you'll be alerted on the following screen. Fix any offending dates by typing in the text box or clicking the 
icon. If any suppliers don't meet your RFP's requirements, they'll be listed here as well. Want to include them anyway? Just check the box next to the venue's name. Click Next >>.
The RFP Confirmation page opens. Click on the number next to the paperclip icon to review what documents are attached to the RFP. If they are not relevant, you may be able to remove them, but that depends on settings defined in the Document Library. You can also include applicable NSO contacts by checking the boxes next to their names.
