Pre-Built Event Templates

Creating an Event Template

AuctionBuilder has an option for using pre-built templates to save time when creating auction events. After a template is used to create an event, the details can be altered to fit that specific event. Auction companies can save up to five different event templates.

1. Click on the Prebuilt Event Templates link located on the left side of AuctionBuilder under Auction Tools.
2. Click on the New Template tab.
   • If no other templates have been made, this will be the only tab.
   • If the auction company already has five templates saved, the New Template tab will not be available. An existing template can be edited or be deleted to make space for a new template.
3. Complete all the required fields. 
   • The fields in the top portion of the template are very similar to those that appear when creating a new event. 
   • The fields listed under Payment Instructions & Options and Bidder Correspondence are very similar to those that appear when setting up and event's Payment & Terms.
4. Click the Create button at the bottom of the page. A confirmation message will appear.
   • Once the template has been saved, it can be used to create an event.
