Add Auction Packages

To increase bids or interest in an auction event, you can compile multiple auction items into a package for bid or purchase. For example, rather than offer an autographed baseball, tickets to a local baseball game, and assorted sports equipment as separate items at an auction, you can offer a package that includes these items.

1. From Events, select Add an auction package. The Add an auction package screen appears. For information about the items on this screen, refer to Add an Auction Package Screen.

   Note: You can also add an auction package to the inventory from the Auction Items page. On the action bar, select Add and select Package. You can also add a package directly to an auction from the auction record. On the action bar, select Add and select Auction package. The Add an auction package screen appears with the auction already selected.

2. Enter a unique name and description to help the package.

3. To define the auction package, in the Category and Subcategory fields, select how to categorize the package.

4. In the Minimum bid field, enter the starting amounts for bids for the package.

5. When the package or its items must be used within a specific time period, in the Expiration field, select the date the package expires.

6. In the Auction field, search for and select the auction event where you will offer the package.

7. Select Save. The record of the auction package appears. For information about the items on this record, refer toAuction Item or Package Record.
