Template Access Control

Admin users can control which users have access to the templates used to create shipments. Users can therefore only select the templates made available to them when creating a shipment. If a template shows Restricted Template under the Templates section in the Info section, the user does not have access to it. Users can only see the names of templates if they have been given access to it. With or without access, users can see the ID number.

Deleted templates will be shown as Deleted and the ID.
