Thanks for the quick reply. However, ... (there is always a 'but'). You're
talking 2.1. I'm talking 2.0. I think that tells the story; these
requirements are not present in 2.0.
And yes, for government making a public RFQ to commercial businesses there
is a kind of 'auction' time available in which they can make their offer and
there is a separate start/end for when the offer should be standing.
Cheers,
Roland

Unless I'm mistaken, I believe these are found at the top-level of
the request for quotation.
Here is the RFQ top-level as defined in the first public review draft
of UBL 2.1:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/prd1-UBL-2.1/mod/summary/reports/UBL-AllDocum
ents-2.1.html#Table_RequestForQuotation
>I'm talking about the requested validity period for the Quotation
I would think this is the <RequestedValidityPeriod> on row 16:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/prd1-UBL-2.1/mod/summary/reports/UBL-AllDocum
ents-2.1.html#t-RequestForQuotation-16
> and the period in which the Quote can be made.
I would think this is the <SubmissionDueDate> on row 12:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/prd1-UBL-2.1/mod/summary/reports/UBL-AllDocum
ents-2.1.html#t-RequestForQuotation-12
... though I don't see a start date for submissions, only an end
date. Would you need a start date for submissions? I don't think in
call cases it can be assumed to be the issue date of the RFP.
>Are there UBL conformant alternatives or do I need to make my own RFQ?
Hopefully not, and you'll find the committee's work either sufficient
or open to your suggestions for improvement. The second public
review draft for UBL 2.1 should be out shortly.
>Thanks for thinking with me on this,
Thank *you* for your question!
I hope this helps.
