Create new Aero using Library Template

To create a new Aero using a Library Template, navigate to Library > Library Templates.

Use the sort and filter features of the Library Template grid to find a template you want to use. Depending on your subscription level, you may not have access to all templates. Click the Add Aero button to use the template you've selected to create a new Aero for your firm.

An Edit Aero screen will open so that you can schedule the Aero and assign it to a client and a Team Member. The fields you can fill out are as follows:
