In scenarios like bidding, RFI (Request for Information) documents are to be sent to a number of potential vendors for receiving quotations. Such vendors may not have user accounts in Wrench. Details about the vendor such as their organisation name, communication address etc. are ideally furnished by vendors themselves. Also, it is not appropriate to create login credentials and send it to users by email. Hence a facility for potential users to register themselves is introduced in WRENCH for WEB.

For this facility to be available, certain settings has to be defined in WRENCH Enterprise server.

NOTE: A user group can be configured in WRENCH Enterprise server and all vendors or bidders who register in WRENCH using the facility are saved under this group.
