I think it is an individual option to accept a bid (or collective in an MP game). There are no rules or guidelines to govern the acceptance or denial of a termination bid, nor should there be, especially in a campaign game. (Unless there was some agreement otherwise.)
In a campaign, if you are the winning side, you want to wipe out as many of the enemy as you can so that they are at a disadvantage in the next scenario; in a single scenario game, the bid would probably be accepted.
I think the onus is on the losing side to be able to preserve their forces and fight a rear guard action with enough force to do so.
