Creating and Managing Online Bidding Groups
Online Bidding Groups allow you to easily manage groups of items with different opening and closing dates and times.
You can create as many online bidding groups with unique opening/closing times as you need.
If you need to make a change to an entire group, editing the online bidding group in Site Settings will update all of the assigned items automatically.
Individual items can be reassigned to a different group via either individual or bulk edits on the Catalog page.
If you want all of your online/mobile items to open and close at the same time, simply edit the default Online Bidding Group to your desired date/times, and all items will automatically be assigned to open and close at the same time.
To Create a New Online Bidding Group:
Go to: Site Settings > Events > Online Auction/Mobile Bidding > Bidding Settings > Add New Online Bidding Group:
Editing a Bidding Group will automatically update all items assigned to the group:
