Templates
A template in Phoenix works like a template in Microsoft
®
Word - it allows users
to recreate the same steps over and over, and gives users a form or fields that can
be used to automatically recreate a workflow to use with a new data set.
Workflow added from a template file
Templates are files that contain the settings used with a workflow or operational
object. Templates are saved as WinNonlin Template (*.wnlt) files.
Templates can be created to expedite future analysis for workflows and opera-
tional objects that are created to perform complex or specific functions. Tem-
plates contain the specific configuration of each operational object in a workflow,
but do not contain the original data input sources.
CAUTION: Templates do not save any mappings or links to external data sources, which
means templates lose data mappings to external sources.
What does a template do?
» Saves a workflow operational object, and all the operational objects it con-
tains.
» Saves an individual operational object and its settings.
» Saves pointers to results data, such as a Final Parameters worksheet.
