# Off-chain Proposals

INK structures and records these proposals as bundles of Articles, each with a input data type that aims to precisely represent the purpose of the user-defined articles. 

If such an off-chain and self-defined proposal passes the voting, INK allows for the DAO Manager to report  the status of the off-chain execution, which can be viewed and verified by any user.

When an off-chain Proposal expires, the Proposing Manager needs to [Tally Votes. ](/ink-finance-guide/for-managers/vote-tallying-and-execution.md)However, there is no on-chain execution if it passes as a Resolution. Instead, the Proposing Manager can find this Proposal under <mark style="color:green;">All Proposals / Resolution</mark> shortcut, and submit a report of ***off-chain execution*** on this Resolution, with any desired level of details. Once such a report is filed on-chain, anyone can see it as it will be attached to the resolution as a property.
