Account Profiling templates have the following lifecycle states:

• Published - Selecting the Publish action moves a template from Draft to Published state, making the template available to end users
• Closed - Selecting the Close action moves a template to a Closed state. Closed templates are not available for end users.

Copying Account Profiling Templates

Business admins can save time by copying and modifying an existing template. To do so, select a template and then select Copy Record from the All Actions menu.

Publishing Account Profiling Templates

To allow end users access to the profiling sheets, the sheets need to be published.

To publish a template:

1. Navigate to Business Admin > Objects > profiling_template__v.
2. Select the Actions button next to an Account Profiling template record.
3. Select Publish.

Viewing the Status of Account Profiling Sheets

Business admins can view the Profiling Sheet section of the Profiling Template record to track each user's progress toward completion. This section displays the following information:

• Number of Changes — Shows how many changes were made by the user
• Profiling Sheet Status — Shows the current status of the profiling sheet

The Profiling Sheet status information is for tracking purposes only. Business admins should not edit profiling sheet data using the related list.
