Speed Up Task Creation with Item Templates in Pronnel

Introduction

Item Templates in Pronnel help you quickly create new items with pre-filled attributes like title, assignee, due date, tags, and more. Instead of recreating the same structure for repeated workflows, item templates allow teams to save time, stay consistent, and reduce manual errors.

4. Click Create Template once the details are filled. A final screen will ask you to name the template and set sharing permissions.

   

5. While working with a template, you can create a new template directly from it. If you select the "Create Another" option, the template window will remain open after creation, allowing you to quickly create multiple items.

   

6. After this, a pop-up will appear asking you to provide a name for the template and set its visibility — either keep it private to yourself or share it with other board users.

   

7. Click Save Template to finish. Your new template will now appear in the Item Templates list.
