NOTE: Currently in TiM, changes made at the Company level do not auto-sync with Project-level Templates.
If you want to apply a change Company-wide, the edit will need to be made first within each Template in your Company Library and then within each Startwork Template for each active Project.
How to apply Work State Viewing Permissions within your Templates:
NOTE: Best practice in TiM is to keep your Company-level Templates up-to-date! If you are editing Templates at the Project level, be sure to also edit the Templates within your Company Library, so that those changes are ready to go when you create your next Project in TiM.

- Repeat for each work state you want to apply Viewing Permissions for.
- Click "Save and Test" to preview your packet. Or, click "Save and Exit" to return to Startwork Templates / Company Library.
- Click "Publish" or "Distribute" to finalize the changes made to your Template. Changes will be reflected on Startwork submitted going forward.
NOTE: If your workflow has been to have multiple state-specific Special Packets, you can retire that system! Go ahead and insert all of those state-specific forms into your Standard Packets, and apply the Work State Viewing Permissions, and TiM will filter those packets to include only the forms the employee needs to receive. This will streamline things for you going forward.
