The client will receive the corresponding notification, and the project will get the "Active, confirmed by manager" status.

Then proceed with the project as you usually do.

Project statuses

  • Proposed by client — the project gets this status if the project was proposed by a client.

The client can move it to draft or delete, if needed.

The manager can confirm or reject the project.
