The next step will be selecting which fields will be used to filter when this action should take place. Under the Template Links side menu, click Template Assigned Fields. These fields will be used to determine the rules that determine when this template will take effect. Select tables as necessary using the arrow icons to select/de-select fields. When all desired fields have been brought over, click Save Assigned Fields.

Once all fields have been added and saved, under the Template Links side menu, click Template Rules & Conditions. Add the condition(s) that will dictate when the template is used to create a new record. Once finished, make sure to click Save Filter(s) at the bottom.
