Process
This job aid describes the process for canceling a solicitation prior to the solicitation close date.
You can cancel a solicitation at any time prior to the solicitation close date. After the solicitation closing date, CORE will not allow you to cancel the transaction, so be sure to do it before the close date occurs. To cancel a solicitation, you will want to follow the steps below:
Open your most recent copy of the Solicitation.
2. Click the vertical 3-dot menu and select Cancel.
3. This will pop up an alert window asking you to confirm that you want to discard. Select Yes in the alert box, which will create a Cancellation version of your draft solicitation.
4. Add necessary information to your cancellation transaction before validating and submitting it. Cancellation versions of Solicitation transactions do not allow for editing of fields, but the system will allow you to attach a document to your draft that spells out your reason for the cancellation.
5. Add the attachment by selecting Attachments.
6. Choose to Drop or Browse for specific files.
7. Select Upload after locating your pre-created attachment.
8. Once your attachment shows up under the Attachments tab, select Close.
9. Validate and Submit transaction.
