Adding Sections for Proposal Library Components

If an administrator creates optional components in the Proposal Library, end users can customize the proposal by adding these components. The Edit Layout button enables end users to add components in the Proposal Library to a proposal. Complete the procedure in this topic to add new sections to a proposal. These new sections contain components in the Proposal Library.
