Project templates

Updated yesterday

Project templates are events that are automatically created when a project is created using a specific project type. They help teams avoid repetitive setup work and ensure every project of the same type follows the same event structure.


What Are Project templates

A project template is a set of events included with a project type.

When a project is created using that type, these events are automatically added to it.

Each predefined event includes:

  • Event type

  • Auto-generated title

  • Pre-filled project and client

  • Event owner (default = project owner)

  • Default timezone


Adding Project templates to a Project Type

To set up the Project templates contact our support. To setting up a project type just do the following:

  1. Select one or more event types

  2. Specify how many events of each type should be auto-created

For example:

Event Type

Quantity

Production

1

Survey

1

Install

3

Removal

1


How Event Titles Are Generated

Titles follow a consistent pattern:

Project Title + Event Type

If multiple events of the same type exist, numbering is added.


Event Ordering

Predefined events appear in the project drawer in:

  1. The order in which they were created, unless

  2. Events have dates β€” then they display with the most recent first.


How Predefined Events Behave in Projects

When a project is created using a project type:

  • All predefined events are automatically added

  • Default fields (client, project, event type, owner, timezone) are pre-filled


Changing a Project Type and Its Effect on Events

When changing the type of an existing project, the user sees options such as:

  • Create new predefined events

  • Keep existing events

  • Archive or replace events
