Checking In Template Versions
This page contains instructions for checking in templates when Template Versioning is enabled. For instructions on checking in templates without versioning, see Checking in Templates in this guide.
After you create a new template or make changes to an existing template, you can check in the template to update its contents in Salesforce and create a new version.

Comments Enter comments that apply to this version of the template. Update Current Version Check this box to update the current version you have checked out. This template will replace the current version and will not create a new version of the template. Update Current Version will not be displayed if the template is being checked in for the first time.Active Check this box to activate the new version of this template when check-in is completed. If disabled, the new version will still be checked in but the currently active version will remain the same. You must activate a template version to use it for generating an agreement document.
Click Check In. A success message is displayed indicating that your template is checked in. The saved template is opened in the same instance. You can continue to work on the template if necessary.
The template version is checked in and the version number is incremented by 1 (unless Update Current Version is checked). For example, if you have checked out Template v2.00, when you check in the new version, it will be checked in as Template v3.00. Template version information is updated in Salesforce. When a template is checked-in for the first time, the version number is v1.00.
