Create a standard project template for your company

Overview


You can define a company-wide project template in CxPlanner to ensure consistency across all newly created projects. This helps you maintain a uniform structure, including folders, settings, and workflows.



Only available for the company platform Admin.


The project must be saved as a Template. See how to change the project status here.


When and why to use this


Setting a standard project is ideal when your organization wants to enforce a consistent setup across multiple projects.


  • Use when creating multiple similar projects under the same company.
  • Ensures consistent folder structures, settings, and configurations.
  • Saves time by avoiding repetitive setup for every new project.
  • Can be updated anytime to reflect changes in your company standards.


Guide - How to create a standard project


  1. Click on your Profile icon in the top right corner
  2. Expand the Company profile dropdown
  3. Select Standard project within the drop-down
  4. Choose the project you want to set as your template and edit what you want to be included


Set a standard project

Behavior and results


The selected template will act as the default configuration for all new projects - It includes:

  • Folder structure
  • Document setup
  • Custom field configurations
  • Predefined workflows (if any)

Users can still customize their individual projects after creation, but the initial structure will follow the template.
