Enter deadline time and date information
Open Until Filled
If this box is checked then no date displays for the deadline. The listing will go to the top of the deadline list.
Deadline End Date and End Time
- If the date and time is entered and the Open Until Filled is NOT checked, the date appears as part of the listing.
- If the date and time is set and the Open Until Filled IS checked, the listing appears at the top of the list. If there are multiple deadlines with Open Until Filled checked, they are sorted chronologically using this date and time.
