Opening a sent proposal can change its status to Viewed. This tells the team that the proposal was opened; it does not mean you accepted or signed it.
You can read the scope, pricing, payment terms, and engagement letter without completing the acceptance action. If you need clarification, close the panel and contact the team with the proposal title and your question.
To accept an eligible proposal, you must provide the required name and signature and choose Accept & sign. A drawn signature also presents the electronic consent checkbox. The success message is Proposal accepted and signed.
If you only opened the panel, do not describe the proposal as accepted based on its Viewed status. Likewise, a typed name that you entered but did not submit is not confirmation. Reopening a proposal resets its unfinished signature input. Check the proposal’s recorded status and acceptance details when you need to establish whether a previous attempt actually completed.
