Creating a Matter Template (Admin Role)

A Matter Template may be used to group Matter fields together if several fields are only relevant to particular Matters.

  • Organize custom fields based on specific Matter types.

⚠️ Important:
Only users with the Client Admin role (your company's Brightflag system admin) can create Matter Templates.
