How do report templates work?

Admins set up to 5 templates in Settings, Reports. Each sets the sections, writing style, language and who can use it, and can be picked by place status or category.

Web app Updated November 13, 2026

A template decides what the draft looks like: its sections, its tone and its language. Teams that write different kinds of reports keep one template for each.

On the web (admins)

  1. Open Settings, then Reports.
  2. Select New template. Give it a Name and choose Start from: Propel’s standard report or a copy of an existing template. Select Create template.
  3. Set it up, panel by panel:
    • Report language: the languages this template writes in.
    • Who can use this template: Everyone on the team or Selected members.
    • Automatically choose this template: pick Statuses and Categories. Places with those are drafted with this template.
    • How Propel writes: Report title, Writes as, Tone, Writing for and Always remember.
    • Sections: Add section, then Section title, What goes here and Paragraph, List or Table.
    • What goes in the PDF: switches for what prints.
  4. Use Preview with a past visit and Generate preview to test it.
  5. Select Save changes. Use Set as default for the template most visits should use.

Good to know

  • Up to 5 templates per team and 20 sections per template.
  • Templates are chosen by place status or category, not by visit type or by client.
  • Members can view templates but only admins can change them.
  • To delete one, open it and use Delete template under Default and delete.
