                                                                    Can I Edit a Proposal? 

                                                                    New clients will sometimes ask how to edit a proposal. 

                                                                    The answer is that once you create a proposal in DesignSmart it cannot be edited. It can be deleted, but not edited.

                                                                    The reasoning is that a proposal includes a proposal date, a proposal number, a certain list of items, and a total price. Taken in combination, they represent an offer made by your firm. To allow an existing proposal to be edited would introduce a world of confusion for both the client and the design firm.

                                                                    However, many design firms will submit various proposals to a client before the client is satisfied and finally approves one of them. DesignSmart provides for this by allowing items to be included on multiple proposals.
