They are especially helpful for businesses that perform the same type of visit across multiple agreements, regardless of the situation or customer. --- ### ****Who uses this feature**** - Administrators, accountants, estimators, project managers, and operations managers. - Primarily benefits Commercial Service and Replacement and Commercial Construction business types - Applies to all trades ****Feature configuration**** - Account configuration is required to use this feature. Please contact [Technical Support](http://go.servicetitan.com/ask) for details. ## Things to know - When creating a Service Agreement, you can only select from active visit templates. - Edits to a visit template DO NOT impact agreements created in the past. Only new agreements created using the edited template contain the updates. - Visit Templates can't be deleted, only deactivated. ## Use Case For example, a Commercial Lighting contractor can set up a visit template for "Night Drive Inspections" because all their agreements might include this service. By creating it as a Visit Template, your office employees no longer need to manually recreate that visit every time they create a service agreement. Instead, they can select from the visit template. ## Create a Visit Template 1.
