How to apply a Matter Template to an existing Matter.

Automate the process of creating a Matter with commonly associated Events and Tasks using Matter Templates. Matter Templates can be applied to brand-new Matters, or existing Matters.  

When you apply a Matter Template to an existing Matter, you have the ability to layer workflows of Events and Tasks to a Matter in progress.

Before a Matter Template is applied to an existing Matter, you will be prompted by Rocket Matter to authorize whether or not you want to overwrite specific Matter descriptions, or override existing Matter settings. Once you approve the overwriting of descriptions, or the overriding of settings, you will not be able to revert to the previous data.
