# Creating and Modifying Shar ed and Personal Templates

Shared and personal templates can simplify and speed-up creation of notes, consult requests, and discharge summaries by creating easy-to-use dialogs of frequently or commonly used text elements that can be selec ted and dropped into CPRS GUI text fields.

When opening the Template Editor, the currently selected template in the templates drawer will now be selected in the Template Editor, provided the user is authorized to edit the template.
