Delete Document Templates from Your Account

Audience: Organizations

The short answer: Admins, team members, and NSTs can delete one or more document templates from their account. Deleted templates cannot be recovered, so confirm you want to permanently remove a template before proceeding. Read more about business document templates.


Before You Delete

Keep the following in mind before deleting a document template:

⚠️
Deleted document templates cannot be recovered. Before deleting, confirm you want to permanently remove the template. If the source document was updated, you can replace a prepared document instead.
⚠️
If the template is used in an EasyLink, you must choose a new template for that EasyLink or deactivate it before the template can be deleted.
