Making changes to published events
If an event is open for responses, the project owner can make changes to the event without needing to stop or close it. If they need to edit items such as the event's line items, questions, suppliers, selection rules, or the team for a published event, they can do so by navigating to the event's More Actions (…) menu and selecting Event Options, then Edit Event.

Editing published events and event versions
When a project owner edits a published event, the system creates a draft version of the event where the changes can be made, without affecting the published version of the event. During the edit period of the draft, the published version coexists until the new draft version with the changes is published and replaces the older version.
When there is a draft of the event, the project owner can alternate between the draft and published versions when performing an event search:

- To switch the view to the published version of the event, select Actions → Monitor, to perform event administration tasks such as deleting bids or extending and reducing the timing of lots or line items.
- To view the draft version, choose Actions → View Draft, to make changes to the event, such as editing the content, suppliers, translations, and team. Some event details cannot be edited after the initial draft has been published. For example, select event rules cannot be changed, including the item bidding rules and several duration rules. Other event information that cannot be altered between versions is the currency, event type, and template.
Editing questions in Guided Sourcing
Project owners can easily view and modify the question attributes for the event within the Questions, requirements, and attachments panel, as there is a table that displays the question's Initial Values, response types, References, Required answer setting and an Actions menu to edit the item's complete attributes.

If multiple questions need to be changed and have their response type and rules replaced with new values, project owners can mass-edit questions by selecting the questions they wish to edit to the left and then choosing Edit questions.

Editing multiple line items simultaneously
Guided Sourcing allows project owners to mass-edit line item attributes across multiple items in an event at once.
By selecting the checkbox to the left of the line item, project owners can select multiple line items at once and choose the Edit terms option to be able to make the changes across various line item terms with one move.
Project owners will select the terms they wish to edit under the Term attributes tab, which shows the line items where the term exists. The Rules and Initial values appear within the right side of the Term attributes tab and allow project owners to change their values.

Note
Not all line item attributes and values are editable between project versions.Project owners can use the Add terms icon after selecting multiple line items to create new terms and apply them in various line items at once.
Notifying event participants about event updates
When editing and republishing an event, project owners can choose to send the Event Edited and Republished notification to event participants.
The project owner can include a personalized message for participants when editing and republishing an event. For instance, they can summarize the changes made to the event and highlight any updates that may require participants to take action.
