Template accounts are a special type of accounts in your client manager.
These accounts can contain specific settings for accounting and invoicing which are then copied when the accounts are used as a source when setting up new clients of a specific type. Read more here regarding cloning accounts.
Template account characteristics:
- They are free of charge
