Overview
When the Procuring Entity is uploading data for the first time in the System, it is considered as the Initial APP(Annual Procurement Plan) while the subsequent uploading is considered by the System as the supplemental information. Only one (1) file at a time per Procuring Entity is uploaded then the system validates and if it is accepted, it is recorded in the system.
Data related to the APP and supplemental data uploaded by the Procuring Entities is contained here, once it is approved by the Authorities. It's the reference and validation for the Procuring Entity at the moment of a Notice Creation and Notice Approval for every item they want to purchase.
