Before you can add a bid preference you must add a bid group. This section illustrates how to add a bid group and a bid preference inside of it. This tutorial shows you how to add a Start Pairings bid group and add an Award Average Daily Credit bid inside of it.
Regardless of your reserve type, adding a bid group and bid preference is the same. See Pairing Preference Editor for information on how to add options to bids.
