Creating a Template for Each Component/Sub-component Without Updating Item Type

Hi,

I have a question. Would it be possible if we can create a template for each Component folder (Not for Each Item)

The only option I see in Jama is that I can update the fields for each item type and insert templates, but instead, I would like to a have template for each component/sub-component folder in the project structure regardless of the item.

    I assume that by "update fields ... and insert templates", you are referring to the "Editor Templates" that can be used for Rich Text fields.
    For templates for Components (or Sets), you would create the templates in a "Template Project", and use re-use to instantiate those templates into your project.

    Do you mean I need to create two different projects, one for reusing the templates I want and the other is for the actual project?

    For templates for containers (such as Sets, Components, and Projects), you would create the templates in a "Template Project", and use re-use to instantiate those templates into your project.

    Yes, although it's really N+1 projects ... N actual projects, and one additional project in which your set/component templates are stored.
