Edit a template

Editing templates

Click the Edit icon (pencil) on any template card to open the Edit view. From there, you can modify steps, descriptions, settings - everything about your template.

Who can edit templates?

Members with the “Light” role can’t edit templates. The template creator, “Administrator” members, and “Standard” members with explicit edit permission for that template can make changes.

1. Go to the Templates library.
2. Find the template you want to change.
3. Click the Edit icon (pencil) on the template card.

This opens the Edit view where you can change steps, descriptions, and settings.

The articles below cover each type of edit in detail.

• Add a description to a template
• Add guidance text to a step
• Assign steps in the Tallyfy template builder
• Change a template's status
• Edit steps
• Rename a template
• Understanding assignment types
