Manage proposals

Written by Hubflo Team

Finding proposals

Hubflo automatically links every proposal to the relevant contact, workspace, and project, so you can always find it from wherever you're working, without having to search.

  • Contact record → open a contact → go to the Billing tab

  • Client workspace → open the workspace → go to the Billing tab

  • Project → open the project → go to the Billing tab

As long as the proposal is linked to a contact, Hubflo takes care of showing it in the right place.

Actions you can take from the admin

From BillingProposals, you can:

View & search all proposals

Use the tabs at the top to see by:

  • Draft

  • Issued

  • Accepted

  • Rejected

Use the filters to narrow by:

  • Date issued

  • Date accepted

  • Contact name

Sort by proposal status:

Status

What it means

Draft

Created but not yet sent to the client.

Issued

Sent to the client and awaiting a response.

Accepted

Client has accepted and/or signed. Draft invoices are generated automatically.

Expired

The proposal was not accepted before the expiration date. Expired proposals appear in the Rejected tab.

Edit a proposal

Click the proposal title to open it, then click the orange pencil icon to edit. Make your changes, then click Create the proposal to confirm.

Important: The proposal's public link is temporarily disabled while you're editing, so the client won't be able to access it until you save.

Set up reminders

For proposals that are still pending, you can turn on automated follow-up emails for clients:

  1. Open the proposal.

  2. Click Manage Reminders in the left sidebar.

  3. Toggle reminders on or off.

Note: Reminders are only sent for proposals that are still pending. No reminders are sent once a proposal is accepted or refused.

See summary and timeline

When you open a proposal, you'll find a summary panel and a timeline on the side:

Summary

  • Total (excluding tax)

  • Total costs

  • Margin (in dollars and as a percentage)

  • Time logged

Timeline

A running log of the proposal's history, when it was created, issued, accepted, and any other status changes, each with a timestamp. Useful for tracking when a client received a proposal and when they responded.
