In notice 25-17344, section 5.1.10 Award criteria is empty when rendering the notice in html or pdf whereas xml notice is having the data

Could you please correct this.

Dear @douret , I cannot replicate this error using the Viewer API. Please could you let me know what system you are using to render this notice?

Hello @pdonohoe ,

You can reproduce the bug using the Viewer API (https://viewer.preview.ted.europa.eu) with the attached notice.

The issue is that section 5.1.10 Award criteria does not take into account the value ("price") of cbc:AwardingCriterionTypeCode.

As a result, the API renders the following:

5.1.10 Award criteria
Description of the method to be used if weighting cannot be expressed by criteria:
Justification for not indicating the weighting of the award criteria:

Thanks in advance for looking into this.

Dear @douret,

The award criteria is not correctly encoded in that notice. The element <cbc:AwardingCriterionTypeCode> should not be a direct child of element <cac:AwardingCriterion>, instead it should be a child of <cac:SubordinateAwardingCriterion>:

<cac:AwardingCriterion>
	<cac:SubordinateAwardingCriterion>
	   <cbc:AwardingCriterionTypeCode listName="award-criterion-type">price</cbc:AwardingCriterionTypeCode>
	</cac:SubordinateAwardingCriterion>
</cac:AwardingCriterion>

I have attached the corrected notice, the value is displayed with the Viewer API. Please note that there is a bug in the Viewer API, so that other lines are displayed without any data, such as "Description:". This bug should be fixed within the next few weeks.
