Creating Alert, Notification and Preference Templates

Templates are predefined groups of preferences, alerts, and notifications settings that can be applied to a computer or to a group of computers at one time.

You can create the following templates:

• System Preferences
• Software Preferences
• Notifications
• Overage alerts

Newly applied templates overwrite any existing preferences, notifications settings, or overage alerts.

The figure below provides a display of the Manage Templates page.

To access the Manage Templates page, perform the following steps.

1. Login to ECHOplatform, click on the Preferences tab, and then select Manage Templates.
   
   
   The Manage Templates page is displayed.
   
   
   
2. To create a new template, choose the tab of the template type you want and then click Add Template button in the upper-right.
   • If you are making a preferences template continue here.
   • If you are making a notification template go here.
   • For overage alert templates see this section.
3. When you are finished creating the template, click Save.

Now that you have created your template, you can apply it to one or multiple computer accounts.
