Policies control:

  • Who can use which templates
  • When certain templates are mandatory
  • Field requirements per case type
  • Approval workflows
  • Data validation rules

Make fields required based on:

  • Case type
  • Priority level

Role-Based Access

  • Project Admin can use all templates
  • Case Manager limited to standard templates
  • Case Worker uses pre-assigned templates
