Start a project from a template

Pre-populate a new project with units, columns, and items from a saved template.

Starting from a template saves a lot of setup. The new project lands with units, custom columns, and seed items already in place.

Steps

Click Projects → + New project.

Fill in the project basics, name, lot, address, customer, project type.

Under Start from, pick a template:

  • The standard library appears at the top.
  • Templates your team saved appear below.
  • The picker filters to templates matching the chosen project type by default. Toggle "Show all" if you don't see what you're looking for.

Click Create.

Template picker
Pick a template to seed the new project.

What lands in the new project

The full template structure plus your project basics. Specifically:

  • The template's units (you can rename or add units after).
  • Every per-category sheet, with the template's items, classifications, notes, and attribute values.
  • The template's column customizations per category.

What doesn't

  • Image attachments, the template carries no images.
  • The template's customer name (you provided your own).
  • Completion timestamps, every sheet starts in editing state.

Right after creation

A few things to do before filling in real data:

Rename units to match the actual build (the template's unit names are placeholders).

Spot-check a couple of sheets to confirm the column setup is what you want, open Customize columns on a sheet to see.

Clean out any seed items that don't apply to this build before the team starts editing.
