-            A Call for Bids is the step before a request for quotation.
-            In a purchase requisition (or purchase tender), you can record the

-            suppliers. After the negotiation, once you have reviewed all the
-            supplier's offers, you can validate some and cancel others.
+            A Call for Bids is a procedure for generating competing offers from
+            different bidders. In the call for bids, you can record the
+            products you need to buy and generate the creation of RfQs to
+            suppliers. Once the bids have been registered, you can review and
+            compare them and you can validate some and cancel others.
