To apply a template to a request task, follow these steps:

Click Request Fulfillment > Search Request Tasks, enter your search criteria, and then click Search.
Select the request task record to which you want to apply a template.
From the request task record, click Apply Template. The Select Request Task Template wizard opens.

Note The Apply Template action is available in the "Active" and "Review" phases. To run this action, you must have the “Update” right in the “Request Tasks” area.
Click the template that you want to apply to the selected request task. You are returned to the selected request task record and the fields are automatically filled in with the values set in the template.

Tip Users authorized to use this template can also modify the template to meet their needs.
