How to Edit a Template
How to Edit a Template
A Template is a reusable framework. The Terms are the shared commitments you will reuse. Roles identify who will later take on those commitments. Details are the unique facts—names, dates, amounts, addresses, milestones—that make a Proposal yours. When editing, keep Terms stable unless the framework itself must change; adjust Roles only for clarity; add or revise Details where facts belong.
Before you start
Steps
- Open Templates — From the top header, click Templates to open the Templates page.
- Select the Template — In the left sidebar, click the Template you want to edit.
- Update the title — Edit the title to reflect how this Template will be recognized in your library.
- Refine Roles — In Roles, click Manage. Add, rename, or clean up Roles for clarity; avoid embedding person or company names here.
- Add or adjust Details — In Details, click Add detail to add new fields, or edit existing fields. Capture unique facts (for example, Delivery Date, Fee, Address). Keep facts here; reference them from the Terms.
- Revise the Terms — Edit the shared Terms only when the framework needs adjustment. Use Role names in place of specific parties, and reference Details by name (for example, “on the Delivery Date”).
- Changes auto-save — Edits save automatically as you work; review before you close the page.
