Status report templates let You prepare and reuse recurring text content and text blocks for status reports. A template stores the Description and Next steps fields. Other fields, such as status or progress, need to be set individually for each new report.
This article covers creating, editing, deleting, and pinning status report templates. To learn how to apply a template to a status report or set it as the default template for a project, see the article Applying Status Report Templates.
Note
A template can only be created from a status report that is either saved as a draft or already published. An unsaved status report is not sufficient.

- Open the three-dot menu (
...) and selectManage templates. - Edit the status report as needed.
- In the submenu that opens, select
Save as template. - Give the template a
