    • Component —Check the Component option if the Template is to be embedded as a Component in another Template. If unchecked, the Template cannot be used as a Component.

    • Runnable — Check the Runnable option to generate Tasks from this Template. If unchecked, Tasks cannot be generated from this Template.

      Note

      A Template that is only intended to be used as a Component, will have the Component option checked and Runnable unchecked.

      This means that it will never be executed independently.

    • Regenerable — Check the Regenerable option to enable the Template for auto-regeneration when impacted by Screening. If unchecked, the impacted Template is not auto-regenerated.

      Even when the Regenerable option is unchecked, if the Template regeneration behavior is set to Regenerate all templates in the Enterprise Settings, the impacted Templates are auto-regenerated.

    If you enter an External ID that is already in use, the system displays a warning listing all Templates with the same External ID.
