The Bids panel allows you to create new and edit existing producer facing bids and offers. To add the Bids panel click on Connect in the main toolbar and select Bids from the Hedge grouping.
Once the panel is inserted into the workspace, all current bids will display in the table. Each bid will have a location, commodity, description, status, delivery, underlying future, and price/basis.
The far left column contains actions where the bid can be synchronized (published to producers), edited or deleted.
Create New Bid
Click on the New Bid button in the upper right corner to pull up the dialogue where you can enter in the various parameters of the new cash bid.
