Opening and Copying a Template

You can use the predefined People Management templates as a basis for designing your own windows. You cannot edit the predefined templates directly, but you can make your own copy of any template and edit the copy. You can then always return to the original template if necessary.

Note: We also recommend that you set up templates in a test area. This avoids any security infringements when you run a template to view the windows you are designing. If the Security check box on the Find window is not selected, you can view summary information in the search results about all the people who meet your search criteria. This may include people outside your security profile.
