Enabling Third-Party Contact Assignments in a Template

A third-party contact can be designated as a writer, reviewer, or assignee when creating a document or questionnaire. However, a document or questionnaire owner can assign third-party contacts to a content item only after you enable that functionality in the template assigned to that item.

Important: Do not enable third-party contacts for a template used to create sensitive content. This will help prevent owners from accidentally or maliciously assigning third-party contacts to that content.

Note:

  1. Click System Settings.
  2. Click Content Setup, and then click Templates.
  3. Do one of the following:

Note: If the Questionnaire Module is enabled in your PolicyTech system, click the Documents or Questionnaires tab before clicking New Template. (Third-party accounts cannot be enabled in a campaign template.)

  1. In Template Setup, click Advanced Settings.
  2. Under Third-Party Accounts, select Enabled.
  1. (Optional) If this is a new template, finish setting up the template.
  2. Click Save and Close.
  3. Inform document owners that the template is available for assigning third-party accounts to content.

Important: If you modified an existing template that has already been assigned to content, owners must reapply the template before they can assign third-party contacts. Refer owners to Changing or Reapplying a Template for detailed instructions.
