The Worksheet: Duplicating Events with Worksheet Templates

Just as you can save your recipes for future use, you can save entire events - including all recipes, quantities, and prices.

If you need to re-use an event or make a copy of it, this is the way to go. Creating a template is especially helpful if you do different types of events, offer packages, or have special items you design that are venue-specific. You can load them for new clients you add into the system and save precious time.

In this article, you will learn:

  • How to create a template/clone an event.
  • How to load a template.
  • How to favorite all items on your Design Board.

Making a template from an existing event:

  • Head to the event worksheet you would like to make a template from.
  • Click 'Save' at the bottom of the page and use the 'Save As' drop-down menu to select 'New Template'.
  • Enter your template name and any optional descriptors.
  • Click 'Save'.
  • Your template is now available to load for your clients!

If you completed any work in the event before saving it as a template, make sure you save it as a New Version as well. Saving as a template does not save a New Version!
