# From Scratch Proposal

This is an advanced feature and shouldn’t normally need to be used, but in some cases there may be a need to generate a proposal that can’t be created using just the app interface. Sometimes you may be directed to use this proposal creation method by the Decent support team.

If you feel as if you’ve come across a case where you may need to use this feature, please reach out to us! And in case you do end up in such a situation, here’s how to get started:

1. Select “Start from scratch” from the Create Proposal menu on your project’s homepage

2. Select the Add Action button at the bottom of the proposal creation form

3. Select the Transaction Builder option

4. Carefully fill in the form as directed

5. Select “Add transactions to proposal”
6. Add a title and description for your proposal
7. Select Create Proposal

After your wallet kicks off the proposal creation transaction and the transaction is processed, your proposal will appear in the proposals list on the project homepage.
