Creating any type of auction is a quick process and once you have your lot data ready, the whole process of getting your auction published online can take as little as 5 minutes.

The steps involved are:

> Create the auction
      > Add viewing times
> Upload the lots
      > Prepare auction lot data
      > Import / input lots
      > Upload images
      > Schedule lots
> Preview

Your auction is then complete for publishing online.

When you create an auction this is published on your 'Home' page allowing your clients to access key information about the auction, view lots and place bids.

 

Auctions are grouped as Current, Future or Past Auctions, depending on their status.

 

  • Current – lots are on view, bidding may be open or due to open soon.
  • Future – auction information is published but lots are not yet on view
  • Past – all lots are closed for bidding and results can be viewed online

 

You can have multiple auctions published on your 'Home' page and each auction can have one or more lots.
