Template Panels allow for the creation of multiple Panels automatically, the content and properties of which are based on the content and properties of the Template Panel. This includes an optional designated Stakeholder who is the only Stakeholder with access to the resulting Panels. However, not every Item neccesarily belongs to the same Stakeholder. A common use-case is that each Item should have a Panel, but that that Panel should be exclusive to the Stakeholder whom's Item it is. Template Panels can be configured so that the resulting Panels belong specifically to the owner of the Item they are related to.

Editor → Current Situation (Ribbon tab) → Panels (Ribbon bar) → Template panels (Left panel) → The Panel to edit (Sub-option)
How to create Template Panel instances for the owners of a type of Item:
  1. Select the Template Panel in the Editor.
  2. In the right panel, ensure "Assign to Stakeholder" is checked.
  3. In the right panel, also ensure "Use owner" is checked.
  4. At the bottom of the right panel, select "Apply Template"
  5. The instances of the Template Panel now each are assigned to the Stakeholder whom owns the related Item.
