Template Commands
The Templates tab:
-
Displays a list of available templates that you can use to create new Group Policy Objects (GPOs).
-
Provides a shortcut menu with commands for creating a GPO based on a selected template, managing templates, and displaying reports for templates.
-
Displays a list of the groups and users who have permission to access a selected template.
Because a template cannot be altered, templates have no history. However, like any GPO version, the settings of a template can be displayed with a settings report or compared to another GPO with a difference report.
Note A template is an uneditable, static version of a GPO for use as a starting point for creating new, editable GPOs.
Right-clicking the Group Policy Objects list on this tab displays a shortcut menu, including whichever of the following options are applicable.

New Controlled GPO |

If you do not have permission to create a GPO, you will be prompted to submit a request. (This option is displayed if no GPO is selected when right-clicking in the Group Policy Objects list.) |
