Limitations list |
Tim asked Brijesh on 8 September for a written list of open issues and limitations for the docs. A7 and C5 are waiting on it. |

Glossary |
Seven definitions are blank: Match policy, Match rate, Material match, Send bundle, Set own brand, Sheet review, Waterfall costing. Also: keep one glossary with a Product column, or split into Tender and Quotes glossaries? |

A1.2 Two products, one workspace |
The Subscription required notice tells users to "add the subscription in the customer portal". Is that the right term for a customer, given customers do not administer subscriptions today? |

A2.1 Signing in |
Do customers sign up themselves? (Start free trial, as Tim showed on 8 September) or are they provisioned by Compatio? What is the sign-in address pattern — code uses |

A2.2 Finding your way around |
(1) The pending chip counts tenders processing, else pending approvals — are approvals live for customers? (2) Does Search search everything or the current page? (3) Which Help-menu items are wired — Activity, Alerts and Help-for-this-screen default to a "landing in a follow-up slice" notice in code. (4) Bug: on every Quotes page the top-bar page name reads Bid instead of the page name ( |

A3.2 Filtering products |
Do a category selection and a manufacturer filter combine, or does one replace the other? |

A3.3 How the catalog is loaded · A7.2 |
Is catalog loading documented as a Compatio service task for this release, and how does a customer request an update? The product-library upload flow shown on 8 September is a mockup (Jijo) and must not be documented. |

A4.1 The Customers list |
What does a Quotes-only organization see in the count column — Tim asked (8 September) for Active quotes / Active tenders to follow the subscription; the quotes API has a |

A4.2 Adding a customer |
Can more than one contact be added (design review noted one as the limit)? Can a customer be edited or deactivated after saving — no control captured, though PR #1108 implies editing exists. |

A5.1.1 Appearance |
Code offers Light / Dark / System within Basic; the screenshot shows only the two tiles. Does the sub-choice appear after selecting Basic? Will the Compatio Bid theme and the "Bid" subtitle be renamed? |
Brijesh · Jijo |

A5.1.2 The AI assistant |
Is the general AI assistant in scope for this release, and what can a customer ask it? If in scope it needs its own section. (The tender workbook's Bid Assistant is separate — B3.3.) |

A5.2.1 Document intake |
Neither Configure (Email drop) nor Connect (SFTP) dialog captured — the two procedures on the page describe the expected shape only: where a customer finds their Vertibid email address, how the allowed-senders list is managed, the SFTP credentials flow, and how Vertibid decides whether an incoming file becomes a tender, a framework or a quote ( |

B1 Tender concepts |
"Before your first tender" is now a section on B1; confirm the four items are the right setup sequence for Tender. |
Brijesh |
|
B1.2 How the tender flow works |
On-screen labels for each status (code values: uploaded, parsing, parsed, extracting, extracted, matching, completed, failed; bids: bidding, in_review, won, lost). Is the Extracted pause on for customers (line-item grouping, on by default), and is it the same thing as the sheet-review gate? |
Brijesh |
|
B1.3 Material matching |
Needs a walkthrough: what matching does, what the match rate measures, match states, what the estimator decides. Sources: |
Brijesh |
|
B2 Dashboard |
The Dashboard requires a Tender subscription in code yet is the landing page for everyone ("pending a decision on what a quote-only dashboard should show"). It also carries two Quotes cards — do they appear for a Tender-only organization? What does the Products tile show when the catalog is not connected? |

C1.1 Quote versions · C2.9 |
What the customer clicks to create a version; whether a version can be made from an unlocked draft or only after sending; exact label of the trigger; whether carrying over Documents & material match re-runs matching or copies results. |
Brijesh |
|
C1.2 How the quote flow works |
On-screen labels for each status; are Accepted / Declined / Expired set by the user or automatically (expiry from Valid until?); can a quote be started without a template? |
Brijesh |
|
C1.3 Before your first quote |
Keep the catalog as a "check it is loaded" step or drop it (depends on A3.3)? |
Anu |
|
C2.1 The Quotes list |
Bug: breadcrumb reads Bid. Open value showed a £ total over AED quotes — the per-currency split in code post-dates the screenshot; re-check. Empty-state text; whether Action needed counts Sent quotes only; archive and delete controls on the row ( |
Jijo · Brijesh |
|
C2.2 Starting a new quote |
Customers created from the New quote dialog did not persist on 8 September; code now saves them (#1093/#1094) — confirm on stage they appear on the Customers page. Are accepted file types (.pdf, .xlsx, .docx) shown to the user? Does Reading due date fill Valid until? |
Subramonian · Brijesh |

C2.3 The quote builder |
No screenshot — needs a capture pass. Is Configure (configurator) live for the first customer — Tim said on 8 September it "is not there yet"? Which grid is live: the legacy table or the newer grid with Sort / Filter / Set value / Undo / Include-Exclude / Fullscreen? Empty-state text; do Disc % and Markup % both appear on a margin template; how is a price set for a product with no list price? |

C2.4 Input documents |
What appears under Generated documents; does deleting a source document remove its lines; the template editor says the tab "materialises when an RFQ is attached" but the quote always shows it. |

C2.6 Reviewing material matches |
Written from the team's June design notes — needs a walkthrough on stage. Button labelled Find matches before first run and Re-match after? Manage columns list; exact bulk Approve label; is Find a match the only route for no-match rows ("Add manually" was a stub in June)? Named on the homepage as a blocking gap until walked. |
Brijesh |

C2.7 Quote activity |
Does approving a match log an entry (June note says toast only)? Do email sends show here or only on Outputs? Does an entry show who did it? Are entries listed most recent first? |

C2.8 Getting the quote to your customer · C5.2 |
Decision: Tim specified on 8 September that download locks the quote (with a warning) and counts as Sent. Code locks on verified email send only; download does not lock or change status; no warning. Which is intended? Also: is email send on for Ether Lighting (Subramonian's mail path had only run locally on 8 September; Tim wanted a cross-domain test)? Exact labels of the email / WhatsApp / Botim send buttons and the send action. |
