Copy to New Document

 

The Copy to New Document Tab allows you to copy an existing Proposal document into a new Proposal document for the purposes of starting a new (and very similar) proposal or resubmitting a previously-submitted proposal.  You can elect to copy the proposal with or without the attachments and/or with or without all versions or merely the final version of the budget.  The copy function also provides you with a mechanism to change the Lead Unit by way of copying an existing proposal and selecting an alternate lead unit for that new proposal document.
