# Job Templates

Save time by creating and using Job Templates for recurring projects. Customise Templates to match your needs and streamline Job creation.

**Job Templates** are how Agencydesk supports agencies scaling into repeatable operations. Once a Job has been costed, structured, and priced correctly one time, Templates replicate that structure across future Jobs of the same type.

Because Agencydesk was built exclusively for agencies, Templates capture the full workflow shape: Job Costing, Groups, Tasks, Costs, Rate Card assignments, and default descriptions. Delivery stays consistent across the team even as headcount and Job volume grow, which is part of the operational structure agencies need to scale without adding admin overhead.

## Creating a Job Template

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Navigate to the Jobs page and open the Job you want to save as a Template.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
In the top-right corner, click the meatball menu (three dots) and select **Save as Template**.

{% hint style="info" %}
All information from the Job Costing, including Active and Inactive Tasks and Costs, will be saved in the Template.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Enter a **Template Name** and **Description** you'd easily recognise.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Click **Save** to finalise the Template.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
You’ll be directed to the new Template, where you can edit Groups, Tasks, and Costs as needed.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Using Job Templates

Job Templates can be used to create new Jobs in two ways.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**From Company Settings > Templates**

Hover over a Template row and click the **+ icon** on the right of the row. This creates a new Job directly from that Template.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**From the Jobs Page**

Click **+ New Job** in the top-right corner. In the Create New Job slider, select **+ From Template** and choose the Template you want to use.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Managing Job Templates

Job Templates can be edited, renamed, and deleted from **Company Settings > Templates**.

### Editing a Template

Click on the Template name to open it. Once inside, you can work with the Template the same way you would a Job Costing:

* Reorder Groups, Tasks, and Costs
* Change Task descriptions
* Adjust estimated times
* Add or remove Tasks and Costs

{% hint style="info" %}
**Task rates don’t need to be edited on a Template.** When the Template is used to create a Job, each Task is automatically assigned the correct rate based on either the Client’s assigned Billing Tier, or a specific Billing Tier selected when the Job is created.
{% endhint %}

### Renaming a Template

Open the Template. Hover over the **Template Name** at the top of the page and click the pencil icon that appears to edit the name.

### Editing the Description

Open the Template. Hover over the **Template Description** and click the pencil icon that appears to edit it.

### Deleting a Template

In **Company Settings > Templates**, hover over the Template row and click the **trash icon** on the right of the row.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.agencydesk.io/company-settings/job-templates.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
