  3. Click the page actions button and select the 'create proposal document' option.

  4. The 'primary project contact' is selected by default in the address fields for the proposal.
    If this is not the correct contact, then update proposal address by: To - The company or individual contact that the document will be addressed TO. Attention - The personnel or individual contact who the proposal should be shown in the 'attention to' bookmark in the proposal template. Address - Select which address to send the proposal letter to when sending by post. Dear - Which personnel or individual contact will be shown in the 'dear' bookmark in the proposal template.

  8. Click the 'generate' fee proposal button.

  9. A orange banner is shown at the top of the page to show that the document is being created. Once the file exists it is shown in the 'document' panel at the top of the page. Click the document name shown in green / teal color to download the proposal document.

  10. Click 'cancel' to return to the document list.

  11. The created proposal document is by default saved to the folder named '01 Proposal' in the project folder structure.
