Choosing a Template
Besides copying, you can kickstart the creation process using a template. A template provides the structure for a new opportunity and can remove some guesswork. You may have access to templates built by other administrators that have been shared with you. Or you can always use a default InfoReady template to start.
Note: If you have access to the Form Designer Template, we recommend using that template as a base for learning the platform. It is our newest and most detailed template, which makes it the perfect choice for almost any opportunity you need to create in InfoReady.
