# Setting up submission templates

_By Swathy · Feb 17, 2025_

Submission Form Templates offer you a powerful way to enhance user interactions. They enable you to pre-fill the form, providing users with context while also ensuring you gather essential information for your needs.

**A practical example -** Imagine you have a dedicated board on FeatureOS for users to report bugs. With submission templates, you can conveniently pre-fill form details such as:

-   Steps to Recreate
    
-   Expected Behavior
    
-   Reproducibility
    
-   Area of Occurrence ...and more.
    

### Creating global submission templates

When you choose not to auto-select the default board on the new post form, crafting a default form template becomes valuable. You can customize the submission form template at a global level, applicable across all boards.

To initiate the process:

-   Access the Admin **Dashboard** and click on **Boards**.
    
-   Navigate to the **Form Customization** section.
    
-   Make the required adjustments and click **Update** at the bottom.

If necessary, you can later override this customization on a per-form basis using board-specific form templates.

### Creating board-specific form templates

Given the flexibility to create multiple boards on FeatureOS, the submission template for a support ticket collection board will differ from that of a board dedicated to tracking bugs or feature requests. This is where board-specific form templates shine.

Here's how to proceed:

-   Access the Admin **Dashboard** and click on **Boards**.
    
-   Select the board for which you want to create a submission template.
    
-   Navigate to the **Form Customization** section.
    
-   Make the required adjustments and click **Update** at the bottom.
    

### Setting board description

-   You have the option to set a default description that appears on the user side when utilizing the default form customization. You can achieve this by going to **Boards → Settings →**update the **Default** **Description** field.

-   To set board board-specific description simply head to **Boards** → Select a board → toggle to **Settings →** update the **Description** field.
