Purge Closed Bids Page

Use this option to remove closed bids from your database. Purging a bid has the following effects:

• Permanently removes the bid from your system.

• Prevents you from applying any transactions against it.

• Frees up space in your database.

• Enables you to re-use bid numbers within the same year. A bid is identified by the combination of its year and bid number.
