Proposal Name
This is the naming convention for this proposal type, for example new client vs extra work order (mid-year).
Make sure this is clear and avoids ambiguity, so you and your team can use it easily.
Proposal Type
Proposal types refer to the type of work associated with a particular proposal. In the system there are three options: a proposal, renewal or extra work order.
Choose the correct option from the drop down.
Choose which documents you'd like to send
This setting allows you to choose between sending only proposals or proposals without engagement letters. Learn more about using this feature here.

Set a minimum monthly fee at a proposal template level
