      9. A popup message will be displayed stating “Are you sure you want to submit this Cost Proposal? Once submitted, it will be eligible to be pulled into PCOs and Change Orders.

        Submitted Cost Proposals will be automatically shared to the RFP Reviewers if an RFP Reference is specified. If no RFP is specified, make sure you manually share this Cost Proposal to the appropriate users.

        There is no way to 'unsubmit'; the Cost Proposal. If changes need to be made after submitting, you will need to obsolete and create new.” If the record is complete select Yes, if changes need to be made, click No, Nevermind.
