Status of Templates
The following statuses exist for checklist templates, project templates, and control plan templates:
Status |
Meaning |
What you should know |
Created |
The template has been created in the system (initial status). |
You cannot use templates with this status in cProjects yet. You must release them first. |
Released |
The template is released for further use. |
|
Locked |
The template is temporarily protected against changes. |
· You can set this status parallel to the status Created or Released. · If a template is locked, no dependent data (for example, checklist items) can be changed either. The project definition can only be unlocked. |
Obsolete |
The template cannot be used any more. |
For checklist templates: · You cannot create any new references to templates for which this status is active. Existing references can still be resolved. · If you set this status, the system warns you if not all the existing references were resolved. |
To Be Archived |
The template can be archived. |
For checklist templates: This status can only be set if all the references were resolved. |

You can only use templates with the status Released to create checklists, projects, and control plans.
