Adding a Template

A template can consist of single or multiple sections. Multiple sections enable you to assign different authors and reviewers for each section.

When it uploads the template, the application does the following:

  • Opens a status dialog box to show the executing process.
  • Scans the template for scripting instructions, validates the instructions, and extracts the information to be stored for later use.
