What is a Pending List on the Bid Acceptance Portal?
A pending list in Selling Lane Auction Software is a queue of auction items that require action or decision-making. It shows all items that have received bids but haven’t been fully processed yet.
Components of a Pending List
- Winning Bids: Items with successful highest bids that have not met your reserve price and are waiting for your approval.
- Losing Items: Items that received bids not close to your reserve — you might reject the bid.
- Payment Pending: Items sold above reserve or approved by you, but awaiting payment confirmation.
Why Items Appear in Pending
Items typically enter the pending list when:
- An auction ends and the highest bid needs review
- Payment verification is required
Actions Available
When dealing with pending items, you can:
- Accept winning bids
- Reject problematic bids
- Call or email the winning bidder if they haven’t paid yet
- Close out completed transactions individually or in batch actions
