Template Pages, sometimes referred to as external pages, are a feature in SmartSimple that:

  • allow users to enter records in a SmartSimple UTA without having to log into SmartSimple;
  • allow system administrators to configure customized formatting for UTA records;
  • can be configured to include a confirmation page upon submission of the record.

Template Pages are associated with a particular Level 1 Template, Level 2 or 3 Type or Transaction.
