11.2.3.16 Creating Entry Templates

To create a directory entry template:
1. From the main window, select a model entry.
2. Click on the New button in the template management directory.
3. Enter a template name and then define the template in the resulting template definition

The template definition form allows you to add the attributes and default values that will appear
in future entry creation forms based upon this template. The Edit menu provides an option for
adding new attributes to the form, and buttons next to each attribute value allow those values
to be deleted or additional values to be added. Use the arrow buttons in the form to change the
ordering of attributes. The attribute in the top row will be used as the RDN value for new entries
created with this template, so be sure to adjust the attribute ordering accordingly.
