Importing templates
Templates in conventional Point are a collection of folders, each containing a different template type (i.e., the CCS folder contains Closing Cost Scenarios, the LoanProg folder contains Loan Programs, etc.). This collection of folders is generally located in a PNTTEMPL folder.
Unlike conventional Point where all users share the same set of templates, in PointCentral you can create separate template sets and assign them to different users or user groups.
