# Creating New Groups

If a group, its people, or its entities have not been brought into the CRM yet, create the group first.

From the Rubica home screen, click **New Group / Household**.

You only need the minimum required information to create the group, people, and entities.

Once the group is created, you can:

* create a proposal from the confirmation screen,
* view the newly created account, or
* go to the **Opportunities** tab from the home screen, click **+ New**, and follow the prompts
